Bang Bang Vintage on Goodge street had a fantastic array, from well-curated vintage pieces to high-end designer brands, like Alexander Mcqueen and Ferragamo. They had something in everyone's price range, including more inexpensive labels like Topshop and H&M. It's definitely worth a look if you're in the London area. Also, I must apologize for the lack of posts. The internet in my hotel has been pretty spotty, but no more excuses! See you all tomorrow :)
Tomorrow I will be in London, and I am so excited! As a new years resolution I'm trying to post more frequently, so I will be sure to share as much as possible while I travel. See you across the pond!
Happy New Years! I decided to ring in the new year with some new shoes. Left are Steven by Steve Madden and the ones on the right are Lulu Townsend.

Alexa Chung claims Hardy to be a style inspiration. "She always looked sexy without wearing ass-skimming or boob-flashing clothes." I agree with Alexa- I am impressed and inspired by those who can look sexy and alluring without revealing too much. Appearing sexy does not mean exposing yourself. In fact, by doing the opposite, one can appear sexy and mysterious by leaving the rest to the imagination.
Although I do not know many jewelry designers, Pamela Love is definitely one of my favorites. She incorporates everything I love: brushed silver, Native American elements, turquoise, and nature-inspired pieces. And besides having a killer jewelry line (which I insist you check out), Pamela Love has an awesome sense of style. I feel foolish for not having known this earlier! Even if you're not interested in her jewelry and creative process (which is in fact very interesting, so don't be silly), this video has excellent shots of her beautiful outfits and sense of style. Love's choice of jewelry, shoes, and clothing reminds me of a hippie, gypsy, Native American shaman and rocker. That makes sense, right?
Oh, the sick, unspeakable things I would do for that furry pea coat. I also love the leather vest that reminds me of a Rick Owens piece. Thank you for sharing these Ms. Engman!
This super cute video is relatively old, but I just rediscovered it after browsing Garance Dore's blog. She takes you behind the scenes of traveling abroad and fashion shows. It also features one of my favorite fashion editors, Giovanna Battaglia. Oh, how I admire Garance and Scott Schuman! Fashion power couple to the max!
She calls herself the tomboy in heels and is a beautiful assistant at Teen Vogue. I love her style, a combination of prep and masculinity (with heels, of course). And what a lovely trench coat!
On my search for the perfect ankle boot, I came upon these at a local shoe boutique. Although I love the beautiful tan pair, I whined that they didn't come in black. After extensive research on the internet (5 minutes on Google), I discovered the black pair at their website, J Shoes. They have many beautiful, well-made shoes. I love the combination of suede and leather on these in particular.
Sorry for the lack of posts lately! I've been very busy with finals, packing, unpacking, work, and the like. I'd like to barter your forgiveness in exchange for some lovely Chanel Resort 2011 photographs. I must say, it was difficult to pick a select few favorites.
Behold, my first mood board! Originally I was going to use only Kate Moss photos until I realized what a beautiful, photogenic, stylish, and cool couple Johnny Depp and Kate Moss were.
