SATURDAY MORNING

SATURDAY MORNING
My mom and I went on outing this morning to do some research for our upcoming trip to Tokyo. It's only a week away!
We started out at Corner Bakery then made a run to the bookstore to get inspired.
You may wonder why I'm wearing a leopard faux-fur at the beginning of summer-because a) I felt like it and b) people crank up their air conditioning at full blast during the summer. It's freezing inside! I'm lying in bed wearing it. I may sleep in it.
Mom picked up this necklace from some dude's garage this morning, along with a couple of other treasures. Its a 'key to my heart necklace-kinda lame but actually really cool!!
Mom's Pamela Love claw & some other random beads.
Today I wore silk Dries van Noten boxing shorts, an American Apparel tank, thrifted sunglasses, Stella Mccartney sandals along with the vintage faux-fur and necklace. And my dinosaur Prada bag, as always!
Mom wore a vintage flannel, Donna Karan blazer, Gucci sunglasses, vintage jeans, and Alejandro Ingelmo ankle boots.
Counting the days until we get to Tokyo-we're going to be staying there for three weeks. I've been anticipating all year. I'll definitely be keeping you guys updated through the blog.

FIRST DAY OF SUMMER

FIRST DAY OF SUMMER
Today I hung out with my mom, my sister, and my cousin at Northpark to have some lunch and do some shopping. Yesterday was our last day of school, so we were sort of celebrating the beginning of summer…I almost wimped out and stayed home (because I got like, three hours of sleep last night!) but I'm glad I didn't because it was one of the funnest times I've had in a long time-they make me laugh so hard.  
Mom and I picked out outfits together this morning…she has been eager to debut a breathtaking Christopher Kane dress. 
WOW.
 It's a total collector's piece-I'm in awe of it. It feels incredible too! She says she'll let me borrow it sometime. Obviously not an offer I'm going to resist!!
The genius of this dress is that such a compellingly bizarre and barbarous statement has been put on such a conservative canvas….such dichotomy allows for some pretty reckless styling! This dress could seriously go with everything.
Today Mom paired it with vintage Levi's and Yves Saint Laurent cage booties today. (and her usual Ray Ban aviators and Prada tote)
After gassing up, we had a tasty lunch at La Duni.
My cousin Sidney on the left and sister Carol on the right!
After lunch…shoe shopping….lots of shoe shopping. There is more where this came from, but sadly my camera battery ran out…!
These Yves Saint Laurent cage heels are mine-I'm in love with them! I much prefer these to the mid-calf cage ankle boot. The velvet bow is genius.
Another shoe purchase…I've been lusting after these since day one! I can't seem to resist anything western-inspired. Guess it's just my undying appreciation for Texas…I've always had a thing for cowboy boots.
These are next level, though. The clean lines of this shoe, the double platform, that industrial-strength zipper-these Givenchys mean business….they're total shit-kicking shoes. Not to mention they are very comfortable for walking.
Today I wore a new dress I picked up at Seven in New York. The dress is Henrik Vibskov. I grabbed it because it was a total steal….and because I couldn't resist the hypnotizing print. I'm not even kidding, staring at this dress made my eyes hurt after a while today.
My headphones are from Eskuche for those who have asked!
And because everyday needs a soundtrack-today I choose Logic System's 1982 LP Venus.
Venus
Have a great summer everyone.

VNTG DISCO DRESS

VNTG DISCO DRESS
I haven't worn this dress in so long but it is perfect for the (glorious) weather we're having.
It was an eBay find-100% polyester and pieced together in a very complicated way.
Worn with Stella Mccartney sandals (new, and so. comfy.)
A leather wrap belt purchased from Boulevards boutique in Tulsa, Oklahoma
and some bracelets stolen from my mom

NEW YORK

NEW YORK
I am glad to be home now, but it was super fun. 
The weather was so great too.
Opening Ceremony is by far my favorite stop in NYC. I am obsessed with these Nakkna pants I got-actually, my mom and I both got a pair, hers are sand colored though.
Got to go to Topshop-madness! Some very cool stuff.
Mom got this sequinned biker jacket.
It was a short trip but I'll definitely be back soon-gotta check out colleges and stuff later this summer.

AIRPORTS

AIRPORTS
 My only pair of sweatpants, a new purchase from Topshop. Any of the 'comfort factor' these pants possessed was completely obliterated by my Givenchy wedges.
I got this shirt on Monday-these lovable guys come courtesy of Ground Zero, a line that I'm crazy about now!
My sister-wearing shredded tie dye J Brand jeans.
Carol's distraction of choice for hellish airports is Cooking Mama…gotta download this app.
Mom's Givenchy cowboy boots.
Mom got her Pamela Love bird claw necklace from Opening Ceremony this weekend. Pretty amazing, you can see why theres so much hype over her right now.
