Absolutely EVERYTHING

Ohhh, everything is here. The tribal touches, the military green, the easy boyfriend button up, men's watches, spiked bangles, the coral orange lip, and of course, the Wang fishtail braid.

I'm in awe.

Lone Star State

I hate to admit I live in Texas. I get icy stares here whenever I utter those words. You see, for me Texas is not my home, I could care less why all these crazy Texans feel the desperate need to "secede" from the United States, I don't understand all these wacky sayings, I cringe at hearing double negatives, I detest badly fried food, country fried steaks, and consuming anything that came from an animal, I don't get the love affair with both flip flops and cowboy boots and I don't give a damn about the fact that Texas was once its own country. You can probably venture to say that I don't exactly fit in here... However, this amazing Erin Wasson shoot reminds me why I love some parts about Texas. For example, those mobile taco stands by which I'm gesturing and saying loudly "No carne, no meat, just frijoles and vegetables!", being chased by mad people with firecrackers in their hands, and the gritty and brash attitude these people here have. That sam e grit and brashness is greatly reflected here by model Texan Erin, who I must say has me falling in love with her style aesthetic more and more lately....

Vogue Germany

Miss Abbey Lee appearing in Vogue Germany this month along with her boyfriend. Awww.

And aren't you just obsessed with the demure lady-likeness of LV's collection? I know many people regard it as a step back in time, back to when women were treated as quiet, meek homemakers, awaiting their hard working husband's arrival home. Still, despite this negative point, I rather like the return of bustiers and full circle skirts. It is certainly a welcome change from those body-con minidresses...

Loopy Loop

While there is no doubt that everything about Kate Bosworth exudes grace and a fresh-faced elegance, I must admit that her belt is what really captured my attention in this shot. The perfect looped and tucked in mahogany belt adds the perfect dash of the carefree spirit I love about her style. And I love how I just wore my tan belt this very way this morning, paired with my navy dress and nude wedges. It definitely gave me an "effortless" appeal which steered me away from the frilliness that often ends up taking over when I slip on a dress. And in this crazy heat I don't want to appear that I've spent more than two and a half minutes thinking about my outfit!

On my mind this week

via in no particular order: tumblr, src783, twitter, songofstyle, 5inchandup, thesartorialist

Creamy super-thin pancakes with blackberries, gorgeous stormy skies, ice cold lemonade, tortoise shell cat eyes, and serpent rings, cigarettes and florescent green, good ole American muscle cars, Southwestern blankets, sleeping in the sun, guzzling wine and grilling (veggies!), Mark Fast for Topshop knit dresses, perfect outfit (white blouse, cropped black jeans, and ballet pumps), junk food in the form of colored cupcakes, trashy vintage tees with high-waisted Levi cut-offs, suffering from MAJORRR World Cup withdrawal, bright blue and rough edges, my future office space, and Alexa's perfect dress that I need.
