Couldn't resist getting this 70's poncho out again ;) Its so breathtaking…

Oh yea, I changed my hair again-put some blonde and red in it.

Worn this time with Herff Christiansen dress, Lucky Jeans hat, and Barneys Co-op Boots

 

I’ve been really excited to share this with you guys, but last time I was in New York,
I got a sneak peek at the redesigned StyleCaster. I've always thought StyleCaster was such an amazing concept and come December, it’s getting even better!

Watch the
video below to see what you can expect….and watch out for a very special cameo.

It was so fun to participate in the making of this video, and I was thrilled to get a preview of the redesign of one of my favorite
sites, StyleCaster. In December, they will be relaunching with an entirely new
site. It's going to be amazing, so if you haven't joined yet, do so now! Go to stylecaster.com to join…once you've registered, join my network and drop me a line :)

Two months ago I did a shoot in New York for Lucky Magazine to promote Dior Beauty-the shoot was a lot of fun and the December issue just hit the stands today. It's exciting to see the final product! Click below to see the promotion and my outtakes from the shoot.

Dress is a no-name label bought on eBay a year or two ago..worn with vintage belt, a stack of my favorite bangles and Givenchy basket-weave wedges.

This dress is the best, a polyester wonder. I bet the girl who originally owned it wore it to Studio 54..wore it to Studio 54 all the time! I tell myself these things because I want to believe them…

I was so honored to be painted again by the talented Danny Roberts  of Igor and Andre..this time with the shoes I designed for Urban Outfitters. He is amazing! Thank you so much Danny!

I was introduced to fellow Dallasite Blake Wright's blog by my friends at Helloooooo…his blog The Blake Wright is so funny. You have to go look at his skeches! He sent me this one last weekend…thanks Blake!

 

Too true.

And to round off this post I'm going to post some of my favorite things as of late…click below if you want to see more!

I have been sooo excited to post these boots…I got them in Austin at Big Bertha's Bargain Basement..they were so out-of-control that I had to have them. Even if they are too small for me.

But looking at these boots I can't help but think that they are directional…I can totally see this shape of boot for fall 2011. If a YSL Tribute boot dropped acid at Woodstock and got knocked up by a cowboy boot, then maybe their offspring would look something like this.

Wore these last week with Hysteric Glamour jeans and a Jelly Garcia lace tank top & jacket I got in Tokyo.

On to this crazy 70's poncho…I am sad to say that it is not mine. My mom let me borrow it for this picture. This poncho is so painfully beautiful-there must be at least 10 different furs on this poncho. The best thing about this poncho is that it has hand-painted flowers on the inside of it.
 It belongs in a museum. 

My mom got this poncho at Archive Vintage here in Dallas…talk about the find of a lifetime. 

 

 

  

*I am not in any way endorsing Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are. I thought it was a pretty depressing movie. My best friend cried the whole time when we saw it together. 
 This post gets it's name because when my mom was taking these pictures, she asked me to do my best WTWTA reenactment. Pictures of my really good impersonations are not included in this post to preserve my "dignity"…"dignity" that was totally lost when an astounded passerby caught me in the middle of my "wild rumpus". Sigh…at this point though, I am pretty used to embarrassing myself in the name of beautiful clothes.

More photos by the talented Shannon Sewell-it was so fun doing this photoshoot and I love these pictures! 

 

 

 

 

 

The best part of our trip to Austin was definitely Toy Joy. We are all avid collectors of plastic animals (my aunt runs a blog called Plastic Animal a Day) and toy enthusiasts in general, so we went totally ape over Toy Joy's offerings. Karen and my mom had never been before, and they were both blown away. Mom said she liked our trip to Toy Joy better than our trip to Kiddy Land in Tokyo. Also, they stay open till midnight on the weekends. If you love toys you have to go ASAP!

With all of these fantastic animals, Karen had a hard time choosing which ones to bring home.

My new sisters

They have a 'baby bar' in the back, complete with bubble teas named after Sanrio characters. I had a Chococat.

Loved the bucket o' babies…mom couldn't resist a handful for herself.

We brought home so many toys…expect to see some of our purchases on all of our respective blogs soon.

When we got home from Toy Joy we played with our new toys for a long time. The next morning Godzilla helped me accessorize before breakfast & shopping.

Our trip to Austin was so great, and I wish I could share all of it with you but there is an exciting secret project in the works that cannot yet be revealed…we are having so much fun working on it.

I've gotten many emails about where to shop in Austin, click to keep reading for my favorite things in Austin.
