If I had a spare $399 I’d snatch up this vintage pink Royal Quiet De Luxe in a heartbeat.  Isn’t she a beauty?  I’m convinced I could happily sit with her all day typing letters to friends in far off places.  When your typewriter is this cute poetry must drip from your fingertips!

I stumbled across the opulent jewels of Dannijo this morning and can’t get them off my mind.  The mix of rock and old world glamour makes for quite the statement, don’t you think?  I am particularly smitten with their “Grace” collection of contemporary classics with names like Cecile, Blanche and Norma.  Their grannies must be proud : )

How fantastic are these polaroids by Parker Fitzgerald?  There’s a distinct moodiness about them I just love.  I’d adore the oxford shot at top framed in our apartment…tomboy chic at its best.

Though it’s received some criticism for historical inaccuracy, I’m eagerly awaiting the History Channel’s Kennedy mini series starring Katie Holmes.  I think she looks darling in Jackie’s trademark pillbox hat and if nothing else, the series will certainly be a fashion dream.

Coco’s Fairy Tale Wedding

August 23rd, 2010

My dear friend Brooke just emailed me this video of Coco Rocha’s wedding and it left me more than a little choked up.  She looks SPECTACULAR and the location is simply magical.  I just adore the shot where she’s twirling in circles at the bottom of the staircase—what a sight to see!
