I knew from the moment I laid eye upon it, that I needed that Rag and Bone pleated maxi skirt but imagine my surprise when my Free People catalog arrived and was sporting something quite similar to the Rag and Bone version for a bit less quid. Hmmm...
Rag and Bone version on the left, Free People on the right.
However this is the pleated skirt that would really set my heart afire if it magically appeared in my closet.

It's things like this landing in my inbox that make me impulsively workout my credit card.
Do not spend your Friday afternoon on with 7 or 8 year olds seeing Alice in Wonderland. Do not expect them to be the least bit interested in a movie that is over their heads. Do not be surprised when they annoy the people sitting in front of you with their loud whispers wanting to know if the movie is almost over 30 minutes into it. Do not blame them when they are bored silly by it because you yourself are as well. Do not roll your eyes when they ask "what is going on?" since you were also wondering what happened to the plot. Do not question who the target audience was for this movie since you'll never figure it out. Do not expect to see Johnny Depp act. Do not even think about the book or you'll be very disappointed. Do not be afraid to take a potty break because you won't miss anything. Do not say no when they ask you to take them for ice cream, they need something to restore their glazed over eyes. Do not hold a grudge against Tim Burton, even geniuses are entitled to make mistakes.
Do not be shocked when she shares with you her opinion.
I'm going gaga over Moschino's S/S 2010 campaign, not only for Isabeli's amazonian beauty but for the late 80's, early 90's excess decadence vibe it conveys, big hair, heavy makeup, fat gold, dripping embellishment. So love the fact that they have pulled some of their designs from that time period's archives for this season. Tranports me back to my childhood days of being parked in front of George Michael's Freedom video on MTV, lip-syncing along with "THE" supermodels.

P.S. the picture layout is a bit wonky but blogger wouldn't cooperate and I am tired of doing endless research on HTML codes

Since I've lusted and drooled, schemed and dreamed of the Mulberry Alexa bag I've also come across something nearly as cool from Mulberry. A Bayswater sleeve for the MacBook Pro in coral smudged Leopard. Being that I love my Apple "lifebox" so dearly I would happily clad it in some bright rich leather but at $550 I think I'd rather be toting the Alexa bag. A computer can dream right?
Obviously my little prayer was completely ignored as I am watching colossal size flakes float past my panes in an attempt to accumulate 12 to 18 inches of pooh. So I move onto the next tactic, denial. Yes it is bright, warm, and bucolic... This multi-tasking dress, cover-up, nightie? from Anthropologie got me through my summer alongside buckets of Sangria. And Ernest Greene aka Washed Out on repeat.
I can foresee days of sunshine, trip-hop music, and gauzy frocks with this little beauty hanging from my arm.
That's what I want to be when I grow up. A rich little hippie. Maybe this bag will help me to achieve said status.

Wouldn't it be a match made in hippie hipster heaven with this and that ?
