the illustrations of Jules Julien.

it's that time of year again, so of course i start coveting lovely things.

Jony Ive redesigned the Leica for a (RED) auction - it went for 1.8 million USD. it is quite lovely.

Materials + Process Sacagawea Carryall. made to order, in SF. i've been ogling this bag for the past few years. it's way out of my price range, but isn't it lovely?

not your standard diamond earrings, by Sarah Loertscher. bonus = they are conflict free. buy them for me at Of A Kind.

Issues sweatshirt by Baron von Fancy for Reformation.

this officially makes me a nerd, but i don't care. it's Capitol Couture (yes, that capitol) by Hunger Games fashion designer Trish Summerville. and it's a gorgeous cuff. le sigh.

Damien Hirst for Alexander McQueen. not Hirst's first collaboration in fashion, but definitely one of the more promising. the butterfly paintings certainly lend themselves to the scarves, but i do recall owning a Pit Er Pat skull poster a few years back that looked oddly like the skull-bug scarves... still, arresting and ethereal.

beat your face

it's the holidaze, so i'm looking for some makeup / hair inspiration. i'm heading to palm desert for xmas, so i'll need s warm weather look, yet still festive.

nude lip, light blush, but shockingly red nails? perhaps.
