how do I love thee?

you may recall me yammering on about how I am a teeny bit obsessed with Rihanna. hasn't gone away folks. often it's for her voice - LOVE or her face BEAUTIFUL. other times - it's how utterly frickin cool the girl is. she dresses a little oddly sometimes - which is brilliant. she puts on what she loves and she WEARS it. that my dears is style in a nutshell. this little number here - not odd - just perfect. the Stella McCartney boots can look a bit whorish on a lot of people - but she does them just right. and the dress? I can't get enough of it. the grey sweater dress is my dream come true for fall and winter days. Christopher Kane at Topshop and Alexander Wang rocked the grey sweatshirt/sweater theme to my joy and delight - and now this dress?!? it's like Willy freakin Wonka. I love it and I love it hard. I'm scouring and hunting to find out who makes this thing. and I will succeed. no fails here girls. cold weather - you don't scare me now. thank you Rihanna for taking the edge off the impending chill.

dreamy dreamy DREAMY

i'm almost at a loss for words with how much i adore this new collection for Topshop by Christopher Kane. it almost hurts. what actually does hurt is waiting for it. i think i've gone mad for grommets. i'm particularly enamored of this grey skirt. but honestly all of this stuff is just beyond. i LOVE love LOVE it. i know - cap city. but it just feels warrented in this case... lord knows this stuff is going to be gone in about 3.4 seconds - so have a look now and make your decisions, then fire up your engines babies... hey look at that, i found words! quel surprise.
