Karen Walker Sunnies

Who doesn't love a great pair of sunglasses? I know I do, coming from living in tropical weather and all. So it's no surprise that I've fallen head over heels for Karen Walker's Spring 2013 line of eponymous sunglasses.

After launching the brand in 1988, the New Zealand based designer has won over the heads and minds of many fashionistas and sunglasses enthusiasts alike. Her designs are bold and weird, yet chic at the same time. She's enjoyed playing with different styles and juxtaposing masculine and feminine, luxurious and casual, and edgy and sweet to make shades that suit everyone's varied tastes.

Mr. Marc

I've always had a fascination with Marc Jacobs, before he got all sexy and buff and started wearing kilts. I knew he had an eye for fashion despite how he groomed himself in the past. I mean we weren't ALL born with a fashion sense, some people develop it as they go along and I guess Marc was just a late bloomer.

As one of the most powerful gay men in the fashion industry, Marc is the head designer for Marc Jacobs, Marc by Marc Jacobs (his diffusion line, my favorite), and the creative direction of French fashion power house Louis Vuitton since 1997. The things that he has accomplished are absolutely incredible, its really motivating to see someone who has worked so hard on so many projects simultaneously and has still managed to come out on top. It's a real American success story.

Flower Power

With Ultra (Music Festival) so close, I've been looking into what I want to wear and I know for sure I want to bring some flower power to my outfit. While brainstorming I found some amazing flower crown ideas that I might just have to try and put together!

Need. Want. Must Have.

Just a collection of some pretty little things I wouldn't mind gracing the walls and shelves of my closet.. I mean a girl can dream right?

This Will Have Been: Art, Love, and Politics in the 1980's

For all you art lovers here in Boston I've got a treat for you.. The ICA (The Institute of Contemporary Art) presents the first major US museum retrospective devoted to the art of the 1980's.

Organized by The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, the exhibit titled "This Will Have Been: Art, Love, and Politics in the 1980's," is an ambitious presentation that represents the diverse and complex art that was produced throughout the 1980's. The 80's were considered a transformative decade in the history of art, music, and politics beginning with new regimes of world power personified in the US by President Ronald Reagan, in the UK by Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, and in Germany by Chancellor Helmut Kohl. They ended with the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, and the repudiation of the Reagan-Thatcher era signaled by the elections of Bill Clinton in the US and Tony Blair in the UK.

That's One Bad Bitch (In a good way, obviously.)

Music Monday - Only Love

It's been one of those days when everything around you is moving at a thousand miles per hour and you can't seem to slow down or get a grip on what's going out.. I wish I had more hours in the day to do the things I wanted to do.. or even the things I need to do.. those seem to be on the back burner lately.
