If I lived here...

I was talking last night about how the grass is always greener, and we are always imagining and envying lives that are completely opposite of the path we have chosen.  Though I do like all the rooms that I save, many of them seem fit the path not chosen, like if I were married with kids or living in a smaller town....

If I lived here, I'd be a sculptor with 2 kids, a dog, and an obsession with organization.  My husband and I would reside in San Francisco.  He would be an English professor, successful novelist, and little league coach.  Our weekends would be spent boating, attending baseball games (both little and major league), dining at all the new restaurants, and watching movies in the park.  Our home would have gorgeous views of the city with large floor to ceiling windows all around.  The ceilings would be sky high and the living room would be big enough to do gymnastics in.  It would have the perfect mix of vintage and modern, sophistication and fun.  This life would be settled but never dull, full of playfulness and laughter all the time....and obviously with a perfect wardrobe to match!

Summer Uniform Wish List

All I foresee myself wearing this summer are skirts and fun tees.  I've been so sick of jeans, and shorts are not normally my friends (unless homemade), so skirts it shall be!  Here is a little of my inspiration for my summer shopping...that shall possibly commence in the next hour =D

Items found at thecobrasnake.com, Shopbop, ASOS, Lauren Moshi, Converse, Superga, and Net-a-Porter.

By the sea shore...

I have officially relocated to the westside! Pretty excited about it, and finally ready for some redecorating.  New couch is on order and deal of the year rug from the flea market has been laid down.  We now just need a few other pieces and items to finish the living room off.  Here is my brainstorm for the room...


Sectional:  Crate and Barrel
Console: Mortise and Tenon
Pillows:  Restoration Hardware
Lamp:  Lamps Plus
   Mirrored Cabinet:  Z Galerie

Starring: Printed Bums

My favorite outfit as of late:  cropped American Apparel black sweatshirt, Zara white linen tee, printed Current/Elliot jeans, my sparkly toms, topped with my Dannijo whistle and dollar store mood ring.  Similar outfit below...


Since I am so obsessed, I could really use more outfits like this.  Feeling the printed bum these days....

If I lived here...

I started this "If I lived here.." more so "If I wore this, where would I live?"  I fell in love with a lot of the rich, romantic gowns from the recent runway shows.  They all are made in luxurious fabrics and ooze drama.  So, naturally I would need a romantic and dramatic home to boot...

If I lived here, naturally I'd have some psychic abilities because you can't dress and live like this without them, however my income would come from being a costumer for French theater and cinema.  After winning a Moliere award for best costume design, I would dive into costume designing for French period piece films.   My husband and I would have met working on a musical project together, he being the original composer of the movie's score.  We wouldn't actually meet each other until at the premier by accidentally sitting beside each other in the theater.  I, wearing the fiery Matthew Williamson number below and he in a custom Tom Ford suit and dark rimmed specs would fall in love instantly.  Cetait le coup de foudre! I mean this is French cinema - would you expect anything less?!

I'm reading the Lucky One right now...I blame Nicholas Sparks for this sappiness ;)
