(not so) lonely

lonely by lonely hearts collection II
lingerie done right






i think that lingerie like this is infinitely sexier than the typical victoria's secret look. sadly, this look is reserved for those who are, shall we say, "less endowed"? not that i'm knocking the smaller chest. believe me, i envy them. the grass is always greener i suppose.

anyways-- enough of the boob talk. as much as some people may wish this is not a female anatomy discussion blog. oh, if only. the lonely hearts line is feminine without being overly girly. the line between feminine and girly is always a hard one to toe. the soft and airy fabrics with tastefully underplayed ruffles are the epitome of bedroom chic. my personal favorite are the cutouts. avoiding the often trashy direction of cutouts in lingerie these are done so well that it almost begs to be worn under a sheer top to show off the interesting lines of the pieces. well done-- well done, indeed.

and this time it's not australian... uh oh, new zealand!

too hip

photo series "the original hipster" by julia chesky
she says:
“Our lovely model, Chris, has lived on Mercer Street for a few decades by choice. I’m calling this series The Original Hipster because on most days he doesn’t even look like he’s truly homeless."




notice that he's such a hipster that he is homeless by choice. chris looks like a good sport. so this is what all the kids i went to college with are going to look like in 20 years. or maybe only next year...

stealing


stolen girlfriends club summer 2010/11 lookbook






more australian goodness. is this turning into an aussie fashion blog? kind of. i'm okay with that.

i'm usually kind of on the fence about stolen girlfriends club. i enjoy their things, but this collection is definitely my favorite of theirs lately. it's also like they read my mind regarding the color palette. peach has been a color that i'm gravitating to a lot lately. i mean, a girl can't wear black all the time.
