High(&)Waisted*

Modern Romance Boutique-J Brand High Rise Bianca in Monaco | Vintage Platform Sandals | Nordstrom-Necessary Objects Blazer | Nordstrom Chloe K Striped Bustier


A couple of my favorite books: Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll and The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas ♥

Legz fo' dayzzz. 

Here you may enjoy a picture of our fireplace mantel. 

Pottery Barn mirror, candles, and candleholder. I'll give you one guess where the bulk of our furniture and decor is from! ;)


Weird hurr don't curr.

All dressed up and nowhere to go!

 I love these jeans (first pair of J Brands), but they're a bit too long to wear on an everyday basis, since they require some sort of platform or wedge shoe. I do like how high-waisted they are, though.

Catching Up with the Yungsters

Sorry for missing a couple of days there! I have a bunch of pics too, just haven't uploaded them yet. Over Labor Day, we went down to the LA area for our cousin Kai's seventh birthday. He had a pirate dinner at this special reenactment place. It was cool, but another highlight of the trip for me was shopping at Fashion Island in Newport Beach. While there, I scored an awesome pair of... Drumroll please...
J Brand High Rise Biancas in Monaco :D

I got them from the awesome boutique Modern Romance for just $39. Best markdown ever--from $215. The shop girls didn't look exactly happy when we bought them, since the other pairs in all larger sizes were marked $99. However, I was understandably ecstatic. I can't wait to pair them with some heels and a dramatic top for a night out or something :) 
In other news, my sister bought an awesome $5 fedora from the Orange County Swap Meet which you'll probably be seeing soon.
Ta-da!

Here are a few more pics from the trip:

Hotel hallway pictures are fun :D I wanted to take pics with a more eerie feel inspired by The Shining, but we didn't have the time or the right clothes.

Awesome fountain in front of American Rag Cie. Didn't get to go to American Rag though :(

Cool flower display on the steps.

Another fountain.

Macarons ♥__♥


Business is booming at Lette! 

Kai actually asked if we could take them off of there to eat.

Madagascar Vanilla, Lemon, 2 Chocolate, Latte, Coconut, Coconut, Strawberry, Lemon, Lychee, Mint. Nomnomnom. Delicious AND expensive, of course.
