Das Boot

Wearing: Helmut Lang Jacket | Vintage Dress - Similar | Urban Outfitters Beanie | Steve Madden Booties

Das boot, this boot, the boot. You remember, it started with the infamous Balenciaga buckle boot which we were all like "this is amazing but not worth over 1k." And as usual, brand after brand followed with their own versions and renditions of this burly bad-ass ankle boot. None of them caught my eye and I really didn't think the style seemed fitting. But, I happen to love this pair from Steve Madden (even with the chunk in the bottom half of the boot) - it still has a slimming width making it okay by me. So this is me taking a break from pointy toe heels and tapping into my East Village dweller self.

On Abbot Kinney

I've been working with a good friend of mine lately, Michael from the street-style blog On Abbot Kinney, to produce some awesome pics for you guys - so I hope you like it. I'm obsessed with this new Rebecca Minkoff tote I picked up at the sample sale yesterday (and it's still going on so hurry over)! After spotting this UNIF plaid skirt online a few weeks ago, I went on hunt for a version of it (in vintage). I think I hit the nail on the head with this find right? For some reason I just get so much pleasure out of finding the look for less - well who doesn't - but especially finding a contemporary fashion trend in vintage clothing, to me is #winning.

Someone admit me into Graphics Anonymous, because I'm addicted. If you ever happen to catch me in party mode on a night out, you bet I'll be rocking a graphic muscle tank with either leather shorts or denim cut offs. Brands like Unif (featured below), Chasers, Wildfox, and Truly Madly Deeply (at UO), offer a pretty unbelievable selection of different types of tanks and tees. Whether they're making a statement or displaying a piece of art, graphics can add that extra edge that we always talk about. Here are some of my recent favs...
