Rain

So i know I could be giving more picks from the catwalks but honestly, something else entirely has been on my mind:


The crap weather.

In fact its nothing new that from now to late april the weather here is wet, slushy, and wholly unpredictable.  it therefore surprises me that I have waited this long to invest in a pair of quality rain boots.  Thankfully I have been able to do so without totally sacrificing how aesthetically pleasing I like my footwear to be.

I picked up a pair of Hunter Rain Boots in High Gloss (Black).  I LOVE THEM.  Below, a few different excellent rainboots:

Symphonies

This recent shoot (altho i left a few of the images out) featuring Devon Aoki really caught my eye. It's both creepy and strangely beautiful, ethereal and disturbing.



I love it.

RIP McQueen.  Heard about his death yesterday and I couldn't be more upset. The man was a visionary, a true standout. Rest assured the fashion world will mourn his passing for a long time to come.

Also I received awards from Jennifer and Cristi, who both have awesome blogs I've been following for some time. Thank you guys so much, you put such smiles on my faces. Once again though I have difficulty picking bloggers, I always feel like I leave so many out! So i dedicate these awards to my readers again. Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog :) I'll get to all the comments tonight!

Shark in the water

Lady Gaga -Grammy

Photobucket

Girlfriend may have some questionable hair but her outfit was as inspiring and exhilarating as always.

Say what you will about her, she always keeps us on our toes.




Taylor Swift -Grammy

Photobucket

I thought the girl looked flawless....her most grown-up and romantic look to date in opinion.


Those were the two dresses I couldn't stop looking at all night.  Of course Beyonce had a few good ones and other people looked great but nothing we haven't seen before.  I do look forward to other peoples' critiques of the grammy looks though!
