I am just back from Europe. I spent a glorious week tromping about Switzerland and Italy buying lovely pieces for all of you!! I will be sharing pictures and posts from there in the upcoming weeks - I hope you enjoy!
In the meantime, I am the happiest girl because I have a SLEW of gorgeous clients in Shrimpton Couture pieces to share with you! I am actually a little behind so expect a ton of posts!!
Today I want to share gorgeous Dagmar with you, who took full advantage of the Featured Closet event we have underway with Judy of Atlantis Home and Jane of Sea of Shoes. (more stuff is coming soon from them too btw - just in case you missed out!). Dagmar scooped a few lovely pieces and shared them with me and her readers of her stellar blog Beauty Country! I love how she took these pieces and made them utterly and completely her own - she has a quirky sense of style and it is a real treat seeing how she mixed these pieces up! Enjoy
This 1980s Diane Freis got the hippie chic treatment
Then it's a take on old hollywood glamour - this crazy 1960s lame piece goes sleek polished glam on Dagmar
I loved seeing this one - these eighties huge shouldered pieces can be a challenge for girls to style - Dagmar belted and made hers in a tunic! Brilliant
And this one is super - we get to see it styled two ways - first on Judy with a classic twist and then the Dagmar way with her unique, colorful, happy twist!
Did you just die over those shoes? They are Fam Irvoll - I cracked up when I saw them - and for the oddest reason they actually work!! Love it!

strolling through time
judy, jane and I are going through old blog posts to try to hunt out pictures of some of the items they sent to me for their upcoming featured closet event on shrimpton couture (mark your calendars - we are working towards launching it this saturday). i love being able to share some of the items in action with you but even with two girls with such well published lives this is not an easy task. both are avid bloggers which means there are pages and pages and pages and pages of posts to go through in each of their blogs - time consuming yes, but serious fun at the same time!
you forget just how fantastic these blogs are until you dedicate a block of time and skim back through them. jane often posts pictures that inspire her and while going through her back-posts i found these pictures and was inspired to share them with you! (btw can i just tell you that switching to a mac has changed my blogging life? that feature to pull a pic off a web page and be able to re-size and crop pics in two seconds in their preview - love!)

i have been hunting for a chair for my "office" in the condo to go with my 1970s elephant tusk & glass maison janson table. a chair like this done is a high gloss lacquered black would be perfect. (or maybe pull a color from my insanely colorful lana gomez painting that is slated for that room - pink maybe?)
you can bet i will be hunting some of the asian type furniture stores in the next couple of weeks and then making a trip to a home depot for a diy project.
i love love love this tiger stripe sequin jacket - it's like the jungle version of my own sequin halston piece and anyone who knows me, knows there is not a sequin that i have met and that i have been able to resist.
apparently this is one of the most wanted pieces they have ever posted. i am already campaigning to be given first dibs on it should it ever be weeded out of their collection. i will use any force necessary and i am cunning and ruthless and abide by the all's fair in fashion and war mandate,
so back off bitches
so back off bitches
back off
see sequin comment above
is this not the most insanely cool one piece jumper, like - ever?
never have i lusted for a man's outfit like i lust for this
so wrong and yet so right
one of my holy grails
i have a ton of hanae mori but this butterfly caftan is the one that would be the pinnacle of my collection. if you have one do not even whisper, hint, or imply that you do, unless you are offering to send it to me in which case why have you not already sent the email meanie?
last, verushka, one of my favorite models ever. i had not seen this particulr shot of her before and it's not only stunning and romantic and sexy all at the same time, but it perfectly captures my mood today - joy and contentment that spring seems to be finally here.
have a lovely, lovely vintage filled day

The secret is out!
SO excited about this upcoming collaboration with one of my favorite client duo's: Judy and Jane Aldridge. Judy is of course the beauty and brains behind Atlantis Home and Jane has the mega blog Sea of Shoes. Here is a sneak peek of Judy going through her closets to pull goodies for the shop!
Perusing the racks in our clothing storage room for our upcoming collaboration with Shrimpton Couture. Jane and I are cleaning our closets–again. We have decided to send some of our nicer pieces to one of my absolute favorite sites!! I’ll keep you posted on the details. I love Cherie’s site–the styling and photography are always gorgeous! It’s the perfect place to send some of our most treasured pieces.
Expect some great 80′s jackets….

Sequins too…

And some great blouses….
