The New Suit

Alexander Wang and his tuxedo at the CFDA Awards. Black shorts and paired with a blazer made with suiting fabric. Genius! I love the skinny tie and collared shirt. Once again...Alexander Wang provides a contemporary twist on the classic suit. What a great alternative for hot Hawaiian weather.
Phillip Lim Resort 2010.
Love the contrast of knit and wool fabrics. The pink top paired with the gray wool jacket gives it a soft, innocent look. I just wish I could see more of the leather bag :)

I'm Awake, It's Morning



I was listening to this album while driving to work in traffic this morning. Conor Oberst is simply amazing. A poet, artist, musician, and so much more.

Fave Tracks:
Another Travelin' Song
Train Under Water - "I always get lost when I leave the village. So I couldn't meet you in Brooklyn last night"
Lua - Saw him play this live. Beautiful song.

Simply classic album

New York 1

So my dreams of moving to New York may finally come true. The city is amazing with so many things to do and see. The food was delish and culture and diversity was everywhere.

When I arrived in New York, Dara took me to the East Village. This sculpture is part of a building. We also witnessed a photoshoot with a tall blonde model and a bunch of kids dressed up as iron man (She had Christian Louboutin's on).

After hours of walking around Williamsburg, I bought Naot sandals from Shoe Market to treat my feet! There were so many great finds in Williamsburg. This hat is a vintage piece from the 50s from Artists and Fleas market. I bought it from Ricky who makes crazy hats!

One of my main priorities was to see a show at the famous Bowery Ballroom. I've heard the buzz around the venue and saw Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. I went to the Bowery the last night of my trip and ended up seeing A Camp. BTW...great band! Nina Persson was awesome. She reminded me of a dramatic Jenny Lewis with a raspy voice. A Camp exceeded my expectations:).

Played tourist in Time Square and sat on the fancy bleachers. It was nice, but a little to crowded for my liking.
