Buenos dias mis amores!

This image always reminds me of the Cuban women in our old family photos. I need to get my hands on those and post them up for you guys.

Skirts and lingerie as lampshades? Do you dig?


Ok, so the first one might not really be a skirt, but it sure looks like a bubble hem skirt.

“Le premiere symptôme de l’amour vrai chez un jeune homme, c’est la timidité; chez une fille, c’est la hardiesse.” – Victor Hugo

Translation: “The first symptom of love in a young man is shyness; the first symptom in a young woman; its boldness.”

Again, I’m a sucker for lingerie. It really is the type a thing a girl wears for herself, first and foremost. And, what is with the Brits coming up with such fabulous lingerie?

{That is a seriously teasing bra!}
{Belle bra and knickers with garter}

{My favorite. The Kitty.}

They also make a strapless bra that is sexy. {I know, unheard of, right?} Cheers to the brits for making pretty knickers. Knickers is a far better word than… ew don’t make me say it.. panties.

{style is ageless}


I like this little interview with Maria Kener on the Sartorialist. I think her style is so elegant and feminine, but in a very womanly way. Gorgeous.


Also, I saw this blog on The Art of Jordan and think it is fabulous. Just because you have reached a certain age, does not mean you have to give up your personal style and become irrelevant.

{btw} Don’t forget to stop by {iStyle} today!

{friday finds}

Oh, Australia, how I’d love to visit. So much cool that I was unaware of until now. What else are you hiding from me? Well, I found one more of your secrets. Yes, no longer can you keep Ruby Smallbone all to yourself, Australia!

That tuxedo shirt would be perfect for my bestie, Francesca. For myself, I’d like the second dress.
