10.12.2012 / Crushing on : Elin Kling

To say I’m slightly loving Swedis blogger Elin Kling would be a bit of an understatement.  Her campaign with Guess is beyond gorgeous.  Perfection.  I want to wear those clothes.  Don’t you?  And let’s just go a bit beyond the clothes…I’m all about the hair and am now almost convinced to bid adeau to my ombre locks and say velkommen to my long lost blonder days.  Too bad I’m already aware of the painful, grown up truth, that is . . .  you won’t come out looking like a different person after you get your hair done (darn it).  But here is to trying!

Which outfit is your favorite?  And who are you crushing on at the moment?

And P to the S- does all good style come from Sweden?  Seems like it lately.

09.20.2012 / Nili Lotan

I stumbled upon Nili Lotan while in NYC.  This little shop is located in Tribeca (loved Tribeca)) right around the corner from Hugh Jackman’s coffe shop Laughing Man).  One peek in the window and I coouldn’t not go in.  Yes, the clothing was gorgeous (as in completely simple, elegant and edgy all neatly knitted together in the form of a black sweater.  The kind of black sweater I’d end up wearing daily) but it was the decor of the shop that stopped me in my tracks.  I wanted to move into that storefront and not change one single thing.  All white, warm woods, industrial pieces, hand crafted, interesting furniture, black and white and more white.   It’s like pure peaceful tranquility meets quiet modern moments.  Ok, getting carried away with my words but you get the point.


Beautiful, right?!  And as, I began searching the inter webs I found Nili Lotan’s home featured in Rum Magazine is beyond gorgeous.

09.12.2012 / FashionABLE

Today I’m over at the FashionABLE blog.

Have you heard of FahionABLE? It is a non-profit that creates sustainable business (making scarves) in Africa for women who are in need.  It’s not just a non – profit that gives, but rather provides jobs for women who are in desperate situations.  In turn, restoration, new life, and dignity are now part of these women’s life.  Each scarf is named after a woman who’s life has been changed and comes with a hand written note, like the one I received above.

Friends, I love this concept.  Helping others first and foremost, giving them tools to live, empowering women and making beautiful things.  I want to be a part of something like this….don’t you?

Of course, one way you can get involved is to purchase one of these lovely women’s scarves.  I’m wearing the Etanesh Stripes (c/o of Fashionable) and my other faves are listed above.

FashionABLE is offering la la LOVELY readers 20% off today (offer expires at Midnight).  Just use LALAFAVES at checkout.  So why not go shopping for a good cause?

Stop by their blog to see how I styled my scarf and to hear about my fall favorites.

P.S. – And hey, I admit, although I wear scarves a lot, I’m not the best at tying them.  If you’re like me, this should help.  I’m determined to try at least 3 this fall.

 

08.30.2012 / What about cat?

So what about that?  I mean… what about cat?  Yes, lately, I have had cats on the brain.  It’s just the truth.  I love all of this kitty inspiration and it all started with my kitty iPhone case!

The truth is, I have been secretly wishing for a kitty cat.  Don’t worry cat haters, it’s not going to happen.  My husband is one of you.  I’ve never seen people have such strong opinions on an issue (other politics) as they do on the subject of owning a kitty.  It’s definitley a love or hate situation.  And I’d surely say, it’s hard to find an in betweener on the matter.  But that is kind of where I’m at.  I don’t love them all and I certainly don’t love owning like 20.  But one cute little poofy thing lazying around my house wouldn’t be such a bad thing.  And, if you saw my house you would just say, “oh, a kitty belongs here… it belongs here, along with a rad little kitty cat shaped hideout.”  Im positive it would just  make my house all the more cozy.

I’ll leave it at that, but I mean, come on, even if you are not a cat lover how can you not love these fun kitty fashion pieces?

Well, that’s all on the subject lovelies.  Come on you can weigh in on the issue.  Do you like cats?  Or do you loathe them?  Hope you day is purr-fect (sorry I’m feeling a little dorky today).  xo . t

P. S.  You can even make your own cat loafers.  Check out P.S. I Made This for more the how to.
