About

Where to start? I’m not sure how to sum myself up in a short little blurb, but I suppose I could just say that I’m a 20-year-old child girl named Lauren who lives, breathes, eats, and loves fashion and design. I’m a design junkie, fashion addict, art lover, and audiophile. I live for amazing packaging, the silhouette of a breathtaking shoe, the details of an exquisite piece of clothing. I believe that “clothing is the furniture of the mind”, and that getting dressed is one of purest ways of expressing yourself. I draw sartorial inspiration from the runway, the street, art, music, moods, anything and everything that strikes my fancy is fair game. I treat every day as a chance to put together new outfits and present a different part of my personality. I ask far too many questions, am absolutely terrible at making decisions, and have a tendency to ramble incessantly about fashion.

Contact me! I love talking to people, shoot me an email or a tweet. I love hearing from anyone and everyone. I promise I’ll get back to you!

Twitter

I’m on Twitter pretty much all day on weekdays, so tweet at me! I try to post at least some things that are actually useful.

Tumblr

I use my tumblr to post lots of pictures that inspire me, basically all the overflow that doesn’t make it onto the blog. I guess it’s sort of like a stream of consciousness. Which probably explains why it’s so all over the place.

Hi Justyna,
Thanks so much, I’m flattered you like my style! As for the lace booties, I actually got them at the Saks store in NYC in March, but I’m pretty sure they’re sold out there. I’m not sure where you could find them now, but if I see them anywhere I’ll let you know!

Hi Esther,
The watch necklace is actually a family heirloom given to me by my mom. Your best bet to find something similar is probably trawling ebay or vintage jewelry stores (although I remember seeing some watch necklaces on some street stand in new york last time I was there). If I see anything, I’ll let you know!
Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful!
