STRIPES

Happy Monday!  I feel like I have been away from my computer forever.  Jane and I have been really busy working on Sea of Shoes, I’m afraid I neglect my blog a bit.

Wearing striped jeans from Free People, Style Nanda blouse, and Dries van Noten sandals from many seasons back.

How great is this bag?  It’s by my new favorite designer, Meredith Wendell  Jane and I will be showing you much more about this amazing accessories line soon!

LAYERS

Jane and I were out book shopping yesterday, and she snapped some pictures of my layered outfit.  I love this layered top that can be worn as a dress too.  Sadly, it has absolutely no label, but I purchased it at Emerald’s to Coconuts on Henderson.  Worn with very old Y3 leather skirt, and boots purchased from YOOX.

Speaking of mother daughter adventures–Jane and I were super excited to team up with Myhabit to talk a bit about our influence on each other’s style in honor of Mother’s Day.  You can read my interview here.   You can also go here to shop my Mother’s day event curated by Myhabit!  Jane and I have such a great time working together, and it was so much fun to team up with all of the talent at Myhabit to celebrate all of the moms out there!

LIGHT CHANGE

As much as I love my Tom Green brutalist chandelier hanging in my dining room, I decided the space called for something a little softer.  I wanted something modern, but something with crystals.  This 1970 Sciolari pendant light is perfect.  (don’t worry, the Tom Green is now hanging in my bedroom, and it looks great!)

FAVORITE ROOM

Barbara Hulanicki’s studio as photographed in 1975.  Completely timeless!  If you are not familiar with Barbara Hulanicki–she just happened to found a little clothing store called Biba.  :) )

RANDOM PHOTOS

Some favorite pics from my iphoto.  Again, sorry for not posting, life has just gotten in the way lately.  Jane and I used to complain about a lack of locations in our old neighborhood, but now we find ourselves missing some of the privacy and open space we had living out in the country.  Love living in Dallas though….Here is a picture of Kim in Austin.

TURQUOISE DETAILS

Finding all types of jewelry and accessories I haven’t seen in ages since the move.  Old turquoise jewelry from the 80′s.  Thanks to Notify for the slightly tie-dyed jeans!  You can see them here.  Jane and I both love their line of denim and leather.

GLITTER BOOTS

I’ve had these Giuseppe Zanotti glitter boots on my wish list since they hit the stores.  I luckily found a pair in my size on YOOX for my Birthday.

Close up……

We’ve had amazing weather here in Dallas now that the rain has finally stopped.  I’ve been able to use my pretty new patio everyday.

Karen has put some great new necklaces up on the site.

AGAIN AND AGAIN

I have featured Again and Again many times on my blog.  I was there last week dropping off two chairs to be re-upholstered, and I snapped some of the great things they have in the store now.

I wish I had a place for this pair of lamps.

These would be great reupholstered, but they look pretty good as is too.

I would love this painted bright red.

There are four of these from an estate in South Beach.  I love them!!!

Custom headboard.

Anyone need a zebra rug?

Love these.

Great dresser.  If you make a trip to Dallas, don’t miss Again and Again.
