Hellloooooooo!
Her designs evokes playfulness and a little bit of the dark side and obviously are just plain gorgeous. I like these clothes so much I'm adding a few more looks from the Fall 2007 collection:

Recently, I've been obsessed with fine jewelry. Their timeless appeal allows them to be worn with almost anything without looking awkward and adds a touch of class to an outfit. One of my favorite jewelry brands creates almost all of its jewelry in solid gold without just plating or dipping in gold [a sign that you're getting your money's worth!].
Bittersweets NY makes bracelets, necklaces, rings, earrings, and more, in simple yet disturbingly morbid ways. There are everything from vampire teeth rings and necklaces to earthworm bangles, beating heart charms and maggot bracelets. I'm not too big of a fan of umm morbid things but what sold me was these tiny letter rings. Available at bittersweetsny.com and comes in three shades of gold [white, rose, and yellow]. They are customizable with letters and numbers [up to 4 i think, $8 for each additional] and are solid gold [explains the price for such a small thing]! Click on the picture for a bigger one because you can't really read what it says..
They're cute but it says on the website that you can "stack em up". I wonder who could afford to buy more than a couple of these... But it's a nice thought.
And I guess the rings were the item of the day but here's another one, just for variety's sake.
Sretsis has long been one of my favorite brands for its sweet, soft colored confections, and this jumpsuit really caught my attention [and it's on sale!]
It used to be $748 and now it's $374... Probably on sale because jumpers are a total summer thing and unless you live in Florida or California, it's pretty much a guaranteed stash away until next summer. Still a splurge but looks like it just may be worth it... Tell me what you think! And if you like it it's available here.
The title of today's post is the name of a song by the Strokes, only the best band on earth (: They are probably one of the biggest parts and influences of my life... Please release an album soon and go on tour!!!!
Lots of things I want to write about today so let's get started!!
Thursday, I got super long bangs...I think they turned out alright! Friday I was at a friend's sweet sixteen party...Saturday I was at Little Tokyo in Los Angeles to attend the annual Tofu Festival which was a lot of fun. I had a lot of tofu, too, and get this... I drank a tofu margarita. Needless to say, it was... nasty. Hahaha. Well, that concludes my "diary" and let's move on to the important stuff...
Today's designer of the day is Samantha Pleet!
Mixing a little bit of the dark and light, her clothing combines Gothic elements with modern concepts.
