East Coast Beach-y.

If you aren't a maxi dress kinda girl but want to hit the beach, pool, cabana, or boardwalk in style... I feel you. Hence EAST COAST BEACH CHIC. A little plaid, darker colors, dope shades, perfectly cut off shorts. It's like summer camp all over again but with cocktails.

It has been totally insane weather wise in LA with temperatures reaching the (GASP) high 70s! So this weekend I plan on hitting the beach ideally with all of the above, oh and the song below, on repeat.

+ Zara's TRF lookbook for the month is calling my name, particular this little tie dye ensemble.

+Andy Warhol's philosophy from A to B and back again is Amazing and since this week was the anniversary of his passing it seems fitting.

DIY: Pinterest IRL

I had this mother-f'ing wall in my hallway that I had been mulling over for MONTHS about what to put in it, a poster? BORING. a mirror? TOO MUCH. Then I got the idea of turning it into a kind of inspiration board (like PINTEREST in real life) however, I didn't want to tack up a bunch of stuff and get lots of holes in the wall so I decided to create pseudo-dark room esque little wall hanging little things that inspire me! The hope is that the wall builds and builds, become a Smörgåsbord (yes correct spelling) of mad awesome-ness! I thought I would share mine so far...

Awesome Overload.

You know when your desktop is on image overload? Well with all these fantastic Fall goodies coming out left and right, mine was definitely at capacity. I want to start doing a weekly round up of STUFF that I am really into... this could be fashion, music, art, hell the options are limitless! Let's start with this one:

+The Corin Wester Coat: Don't you hate when you click on an item and it turns out to be EUROS (Come on US economy, help a sister out!)
+A Casual canvas tote (menswear inspired) is going to be all the rage this Fall!
+ The GentleWoman: Don't ask questions just subscribe.
+PAPER: Yes paper ya'll. Get into it. Paper notebooks are sexy.
+Wallpaper: Anthropologie is now carrying it. lots of beautiful expensivo wallpaper.
+Leopard Booties. SHUT THE HELL UP, these is major.
+JEWELMINT: The jewelry subscription service from none other than Kate Bosworth is killing it! I got these adorable earrings that I cannot wait to wear (gifted by Jewelmint)!
+Musica: Grouplove "Don't Trust A Happy Song" is so worth a listen it's ridiculous.
