TAYLOR TOMASI - TEEN VOGUE

01.04.2008
SUNDAY - PART 2


The Teen Vogue 'it girls' or should I say ladies. They sure know how to be stylish! Today I'm focusing on Taylor Tomasi (far right), she's the Teen Vogue accessories Director and she has incredible style.

BLOG STYLE LOVE

I can't believe how long it's been since Agathe left us, and she will never be replaced, but I have made some room in my fashion heart for Lisa from Lisa's place. I don't know how she manages to make such simple items look so amazing. Somebody once left me a comment asking why I didn't pose in my outfits like everyone else does, well that take confidence, patience (which I tend to have little of) and maybe a cute body like Lisa. Ah yes inspiration for hitting the gym and working out twice as hard today. Maybe I will someday, but not today.


Although she recently closed her site Fashion Disciple, I've been admiring this British bloggers style for the last year. It's so fun and well accessorized I wish I had her cool attitude to pull a look like this off.

RANDOM PICTURES I LOVE
This picture is quite old, I believe it's from The Sartorialist. This girl is so gorgeous, cool attitude, clothes and all.


MARC JACOBS & RACHEL ZOE

Two of your favorite people, even though they are both crazy. I'm a firm believer that you have to be a little crazy in the head to be creative, I mean Vincent Van Gogh cut off his own ear right? I also think that Britney's crazy in the head album that came out last year called 'Blackout' was much better then this saner 'Circus' album. I've listened to all of Circus and there are probably 3 maybe 4 good songs, a lot of the songs on there just seem to run into each other if you know what I mean.

This is another old picture from maybe a year and half two years ago. I love how sometimes Mary-Kate surprises you now and then buy dressing up very much like Ashley.

The best part about growing old is that with every year you give less of a shit about people, society and what they think. I love how many of them put that extra effort into their look, reminds me so much of my grandmother.

My plaid obsession continues into the new year. I've never not liked plaid, I remember wanting a flannel shirt more then anything back in the 90s, but of course I never got it. I still can't believe that if you are born in 1990 you could be 19 now. I remember when they were only suppose to be like 6-7, how do the years fly by so quick? My sister born in 94 just turned 15! Ah well I'm proud to be an 80s child, it was such an interesting decade.

This is what happens when you have too many tights, everyday it was a fight and struggle to find something with no holes and that fit nicely etc so I decided to organize and tag everything, by fit, color, brand and overall look. I also tossed out a bunch of holey ones and separated the ones that can be repaired (clear nail polish).
The other day I went to American Apparel and spent 16$ on black tights because I wanted a good quality pair that was comfortable. The next day I wore them to work and about halfway through the day they already had a rip down the leg. Never again.

I've been working on putting up frames above our bed, I have loads more to add, but here are the beginnings. The pictures I took my self first one in Fiji than the next two are Venice beach in Los Angeles and the flower is in Fiji. The paintings I picked up at Urban Outfitters.


I also got myself a little something this week, an IPhone! I've been wanting one for ages, they only got released in Canada last July. I haven't had a new up to date phone in yearrrssss so I'm happy to be modernized again.
