Oh Wednesday!

all photos from calivintage and modacycle.

I am smitten by Rachel Antonoff's Spring 2012 collection. Influenced by Wednesday from the Adams family, the collection takes a quirky and fun direction while still being wearable. I will be waiting patiently till some of them start trickling in at bonarag.

What do you think?

Trying out new make up looks the past few weeks and I am loving the cat eye look. The 60s cat eye liner paired with some amazing huge cat eye sunglasses. MEOWWWWWWWW!

Yosemite National Park

yosemite trip

Here are some photos from our weekend trip. There are so much more but I just wanted to let you take a peek at how beautiful Yosemite is! I can't believe I have never been there before. If you've never been, you really need to go. Its breathtaking and is such a peaceful and serene place. I wish I could've stayed longer. Perhaps another time...

For more, go to my photography tumblr where I will be updating with tons more!

Hope you are enjoying your week.

P.S. Hiking gear is not very fashionable. I searched high and low for cute hiking boots but they all look the same bulky and brown. haha. Now, there's a market that's waiting to be touched. Any takers? I know my outfits here are nothing to significant but wearing clothes that are actually practical for the occasion was a must!

Model Corner: Edie Campbell

edie1

Good Morning. Here to share one of my new favorite up and coming models, Edie Campbell. Actually, she's been around so she's not super new but I keep seeing her pop up everywhere more often, I guess. Or perhaps you've seen Orla Kiely's look book from a season ago which was shot by talented Venetia Scott? If you haven't seen it, take a gander here.
She has this 60s vibe to her that I adore! I especially love that drop waisted line dress. Cute!

Style File: Ursina Gysi

Style File: Ursina Gysi image credit: can't fully remember but I know that most of them were from the lovely Vanessa Jackman

Whew. what a name! Ursina's style is effortless and amazing. I love her long hair and hippie edge. My hair is getting quite long as well and I look to her for inspiration. I might get too annoyed and cut it off but we will see with fall around the corner, I may need the extra warmth. So who is this stylish mystery woman? She is a stylist assistant to Camille Bidault Waddington. No wonder, right? I could keep going on and on but I won't. I will leave it to you to research and discover because that's part of the fun. I hope you are having a lovely week. I am finding more and more inspirations that make me excited for fall so stay tuned for me to start coming back to the blog on a more regular basis. In other exciting news, I am heading to Yosemite to camp this weekend! I can't wait! I've always wanted to go and never got around to it. I hope to take tons of beautiful photos and share my experiences. xxA

Violently (H)appy

bjork cover: Dazed and confused
I cannot express to you how much I am in awe and completely inspired by this woman. She has been around for a long time yet manages to create brilliant innovative music each round. I love her sense of total abandon to her art and music. Completely fearless to what others think. She creates such a magical world inviting you in it. Much like the late Lee Alexander McQueen, she is able to see past this world and into other ones through creativity and imagination. They both have this extraordinary ability to embrace the future while drawing influences from history.
Here is Dazed & Confused 200th Issue in which she is a guest editor. I absolutely love these colorful images that coincide with her new album. Photography by Sam Falls and styled by Katy England bjork: dazed and confused bjork: dazed and confused bjork spread: dazed and confused bjork

Alexa Chung x Madewell Fall 2011 Look Book

I was dying to see the actual look book for Alexa Chung x Madewell collection and its finally out! I don't see the polka dot blouse from the video and the dress in the video was a creamy pink/beige color and in the look book here, its red. So, perhaps there are other options that will be revealed at the opening party. Any of these strike you? I am really eyeing those leopard boots and the black coat the most or perhaps the lace top or dress. Haven't decided yet. ALEXA x MADEWELL COLLECTION
