the perfect purple

the normal color to signify girlyness is and type of pink. but i propose that we change that to a dark royal purple. the color is powerful and striking. it has an air of mystery surrounding it. to wear this edgy color shows that the woman wearing it is bold and beautiful, willing to be the center of attention.

balenciaga-less



ive been dying to find one of the beautiful balenciaga city or motorcycle bags with thier buttery soft leather and perfect shape. my mother refuses to buy me one even at a reasonable price. ive searched all over the web to find resale or discounted ones and have come up short so if anyone wants to donate one to my sad cause then i would be forever greatful :)

not so hot

where have all the hot guys gone these days. while i see tons of them while im driving i can never seem to catch them when they are on limits. like when i can talk to them or they are single. this never happens to me so ill grow to be an cat lady never finding the right guy or letting him slip away beucase im to picky. its just frustrating thats all

xoxo wilderness chick

gone going ...

hey sry ive been MIA for the past week. it was the last week of school with finals and finishing things up. accepted my grades unwillingly but whatevs. these are current inspirations that ive had. ive always admired balletdancers for their precision, dedication, beauty, and strength. when i go to see ballets with my mom they are just amazing and i was thinkin about that this week so here we are. they can make anything beautiful.
the first is marilyn monroe as a ballet dancer and i just thought how cool it was that she could pull any look off.

this is just amazing. translating ballet into modern life
these last 2 are from swan lake one of most beautiful ballets ive seen. they just have the precision and grace that i envy.

S.S.S. cont more

i must be obsessed
amazing alberta ferretti sculted wedge sandals. they are just crazy cool Stella McCartney floral wedge sandals. a simple dress and this small burst of color

cant remeber what these are but with a girly dress and this would create flawless contrast stella mccartney beaded strappy sandals. little black dress and these on the beach and all eyes will be on you.

S.S.S. cont

more fabulous shoes

these are alberta ferretti are cute but not average gladiators but are able to mix it up. these bottega Veneta Intrecciato demi-wedges are amazing becuase of the little lift they give and the the simple yet intricate design they have.

these are miu miu and i just thought the carved flowers were awesome and perfect for a little dress and crazy party.
again the little detail is perfect for anything these are funky Christian Louboutin Yasmin cork wedges that i love because of the colors and unique design.

S.S.S. (super summer shoes)

so i was on netaporter. com and i was totally feeling the summer vibe so im pointing out shoes that i think are sumer appropriate and why.

these are super cute miu miu leather gladiator sandals. i love how they have color but are still a natural color so they can go with anything. these are way chicer than flip flops beucase they are flattering to any foot


these are fendi flat basketweave sandals that have tons of muted colors to compliment any look
these miu miu Flower appliqué sandals. the t strap is flattering on narrower feet and the cute flower glams up any shoe.

these gorgeous alexander mcqueen metalic gladiator sandals are amazing beucase the metalic adds a nice pop for your feet chloe strappy flat sandals are another kind of shoe that is summer worthy beucase they are just so jolly and not over done

Burch Bash

after cruising around the interent looking at clothes and shoes etc i have decided that Tory Burch is not a real designer. her clothes and shoes are just hyped up fads that will be gone in a few months maybe even weeks becuae nothing in her collection screams or even whispers high fashion becuse the whole line is boring and old looking and faded out. there is nothing original or remotly creative to be found and i have decided to call her out beucase we need to recognize real designers not fake with a expensive price tag.

this reminds me of something i saw on old ladies last summer

this looks worse than something that you could find at wet seal or another cheapy place
this is a total steal of a missoni dress i saw a few weeks ago. lets have a little creativity people

Plus Crystal

i found these pics of a plus sixed model named Crystal Renn. shes fabulous and is making it in the fashion industry. i love her pics and how she hasnt given up

How to do Summer

i was trying to find some fun summer pics but my power struggle with the computer has me coming up one short.

this would be to do anything but just look put together. the one time you think nobody will see the hottest guy shows up. this one is for experienceing nature but as always looking good.
be casual but chic in everything you do and dont be afraid to try new things
look amazing swimming beucase thats what summer is about
i just thought this one was crazt artistic so step out of your shell to look intensely fabulous
