Album Review: “Ultraviolence” by Lana del Rey
Recently dubbed by Rolling Stone as the “Saddest, baddest diva in rock,” Miz Lana Del Rey’s penchant for deep, dark melancholy has commanded the attention of both lovers and haters for the past three years. I, personally, am a lover; perhaps it’s that I’m naturally melancholy, but her words, yes, “speak to me” and manage … Continue reading
A Million Ways to Die in the West
The 2 Bandits is one of my all-time favorite brands because they totally nail the urban gypsy aesthetic that’s so trendy right now, but their pieces are also extremely well-made and totally timeless. They also happen to put out killer lookbooks. Really lusting after this new collection called “Western Romance.” The boho-cowgirl styling here is on-point, the … Continue reading
Insane Clown Posse
When I was young, I used to have a deathly fear of clowns. Honestly, they still creep me out. When I came across these photos of French clowns from the 1920’s, my first instinct was to slam my computer screen shut lest endure insanely creepy visions. Yes, I’m 24 years old. All embarrassing confessions aside, … Continue reading

Safe to say I am absolutely obsessed with NY-based vintage e-boutique Coyote Negro’s summer lookbook TROPICALEO. My new summer uniform is now consisting of unbuttoned Hawaiian shirts thrown over one-pieces à la Baywatch, accessorized with some oversized circle sunnies, Heyoka leather jewelry and a Modello Light. YEWWWWWW! A blend of sage and whiskey, studs and musk, … Continue reading
Spring Picks from Bear & Twine
You may remember a little ol’ feature I did on my blogger friend Marlen a little while ago. Well since then she’s pulled another project out of her sleeve — a fantastically curated Etsy shop, Bear and Twine Vintage, full of vintage finds for every occasion. Marlen’s shop is full of, not clothes, but “carefully … Continue reading
Inspired By: Freaks and Geeks
AHHHH Freaks and Geeks. Such a wildly unappreciated show with SO many famous faces (just look at baby Linda, Busy, James, Jason and Seth below…too trippy). The show is wildly simple – from the plot, character development, wardrobe and set, the entire show is meant as a satire to the social and political escapades of … Continue reading
Pretty Grunge
This vintage floral skirt that I found at a thrift shop a few years ago and altered has been a trusty fall-back item. Black tee, leather jacket, skirt, boom. Instant outfit. I paired my vintage floral skirt with a black peplum t-shirt from Forever21. The flare at the waist of the shirt in combination with … Continue reading
Inspired By: Boardwalk Empire
“They were smart and sophisticated, with an air of independence about them, and so casual about their looks and clothes and manners as to be almost slapdash. I don’t know if I realized as soon as I began seeing them that they represented the wave of the future, but I do know I was drawn … Continue reading
