.dreams in rothko.

mark rothko's works have been haunting my psyche. he is one of my favorite artists and for the past couple of weeks his paintings have been showing up in my dreams, which i will always happily welcome. today i went to the library and art store to pick up a an abstract painting book, oil pastels, and a canvas-and wallah!, my own rotko.

such a relaxing afternoon project, i recommend everyone to have a go at it.

i feel most beautiful and at ease after a hard spin class with no makeup- with the quiet sunrise in the background.

two weekends ago i spent a few days in the lovely wine valleys of walla walla, washington. tucked away in this charming town were these four gorgeous dresses.

below is a peek, with more to come.

.indian summer.

started the week off perfectly with a much needed spin class and a great new pair of earrings. with rising temps and less clothing needed, i finds its my favourite time to accessorize with large, focal point jewelry pieces...the next best alternative to coats, scarves and boots.

below are a pair found at a vintage store that i will be wearing quite frequently this summer.

here's to hot hot heat...

.the perfect sleeve.

'throughout his lifetime, balenciaga was constantly seeking the perfect sleeve. if a sleeve failed to follow the wearer's every movement, balenciaga rejected the design as a failure. his guests frequently had to return home without their coats because balenciaga had removed the sleeves with the intention of improving them in his studio.'

-fashion, 150 years - charlotte seeling

when looking through any collection, i choose favourites based on the gut.....this one killed mine. thrilled by alexander wang's take on balenciaga.

peep the sleeves.

.embroidered.

.gucci's paradise.

i feel like gucci's resort collection raided my head. i've been slowly adding seventies-esque pieces into my wardrobe for the coming summer months, and what better inspiration than frida giannini's take on holiday?

.blue and the perfect balance.

blue is my other black. it's my choice color to substitute an overall neutral palette. my future home, which i've been mildly obsessing over for some time now, will have pops of royal to electric blue throughout. i found this shirt at h&m and waited and thought and waited....and now its mine.

it's streamlined, a little quirky, and blue...the perfect balance.

.bookstores feed me.

saturday night, 7pm, the night after a long fun night out partying...i couldn't think of a better thing to do than tuck away in my favourite spot in my local barnes and nobles, to feed my mind with inspiration. i loaded myself down with UK Vogue, CR magazine, Vogue People, Parties, Places, and a plethora of other interior design/style books to study. i mean study literally. i love nothing more than to visually appreciate all aspects of design....the biggest reason i enjoy sharing on my blog.

i had an absolute blast....whoever said you couldn't have fun on a saturday in a bookstore must never have spoken to me.

.the return of the nikon.

happy friday! snap, snap, snap...it's back. my camera, out of commission for lack of a charger, is ready for the weekend, as am i. below are two things definitely being worn this weekend....my dad's gardening straw hat he purchased during his trip here and lovingly left for me to use, and my new geometric earrings.

.thursday inspiration, lana del ray.

lana del ray's 'video games' has been on repeat for the past three days....i typically do this with all songs that are making me think....her voice is haunting in it. i love.

.kate moss and the long absence.

i apologize and thank you for the feedback. i've been preoccupied with other things, and my contributions have been minimal this past week. i'll be better, i promise.

happy friday everyone!
