Boho Chic







Whenever I think of beautiful prints from the 60's I think of Biba. Gorgeous dresses worn with fur vests head scarves or floppy hats. Anna Sui also comes to mind for the modern day Boho Chic girl. Her prints are to die for and her runway shows are a feast for the senses. Whimsical, and free spirited! Here  is my latest piece in my upcoming shop hope you enjoy!

Green Note: Did you know that there is 12.7 million tons of clothing that end up in landfills in America

Love and Peace!

Sheathed in Red










In the 90's Kate Moss was the queen of the sheath dress rocking it to various events with then boyfriend Johnny Depp. I remember after seeing the grey one she wore to Cannes I begged my Mom to make the same one form me which she did and which I loved. The simplicity yet body hugging sexiness of it is a timeless classic for any wardrobe.

Adorned or unadorned it still looks great on. Kate pulled it off perfectly. Here is my version of the classic with a pleated twist that will be featured in my shop.

Green Note: Just like Kate Moss it is alway easy to get that one of a kind look beacause when you shop for vintage no one else has it!

A Keenness for Greenness





I am an avid reader and enjoy collecting old books to add to my library. That's why when I found these beautiful red German vintage books I was very excited to share them with you.

Green Note: When you check a book out from the Library it's good for the environment and good for you! But of course its 2012 so a kindle or ipad trumps the library either way its a good thing :)

RAISING THE BAR!







Here is a little peak into what I have been working on and I am very excited to share it with you very soon.

I have always loved mini bars in the home, they are great for inviting friends over for an eco friendly soirees or as Nikki use to do on Young and The Restless pour herself a cocktail of hard liquor and pop pain killers....always loved the way her decanter clinked against the crystal cut glass. On a serious note here are a few of my favorite bar looks and a feature of one of the items that will be found in my shop which will be a perfect addition to any mini bar!

Cheers
