Stubborn Summer

It looks as though some June Gloom is settling in early on us this weekend. So I guess the trend of lying in flower beds, gardening, sitting in parks and eating ice cream is taking a little hiatus. Oh well, I'm seeing St. Vincent tomorrow, so it actually might be the perfect weather for that (as well as dark lipstick, vintage dresses, tights & boots, wine and reading indoors).

Hm, which of my new lipsticks to choose? If only there were someone to help me decide (not one of the Boy K's strong points).

Happy weekend!

Listening to St. Vincent, of course!

Spring Fashion Cure

Spring fashion is usually not my favorite. I don't like too much of my body exposed, don't like to wear a lot of bright colors and would opt for boots over sandals any day. That said, I do really like Lyell's Spring 2009 line.

I ADORE this ↑ shirt.



I must get this ↑ bathing suit. I've been on the hunt for one just like it.

I just identify with this label. Their clothes are simple, beautifully detailed, borrow from a limited color palette and are feminine without being overly frilly or gratuitously girly. ♥

Here are some items from older lines that I especially like:
