Tonight the boyfriend came home from the Redbox with In Time. While it was irritating to watch her run through the whole movie in stilettos (on concrete! ouch!), Amanda Seyfried looked amazing as usual. Her character had a very cool vibe going.


She spent the whole movie in high high black heels, funky and sexy black dresses, and with a perfectly in place orange haircut.





High five, costume designer. High five.

want!

Fun fact:

I am going on vacation with the boyfran in a few months. I think we're going to a few cities in Europe.

Less fun fact:

This is really going to cut into my shopping addiction.

In the interest of avoiding purchases, here is my list of things I want to buy but won't (well, maybe just one).

Blarg.

My obsession with travel and vintage finally came to a head with this amazing collection at Steamline:


There are other styles and other colors, but I am completely smitten with the Aviator style in yellow. Imagine my joy at realizing they were 40% off! Imagine my horror at realizing all but the smallest cases were sold out!

Back to the drawing board...

Stacy London.

The other day I was scouring Ebay, looking for some black high-heeled ankle booties. In my head was a snapshot of the ones Stacy London wears. You know- black pumps, cover her feet entirely about up to her ankle? She wears them all the time on the show, but I can't seem to find a single Google image of her in them.

Like this!

While I was searching, several pictures of her face/hair came up and I once again noticed her gray streak. I've always been fascinated with it. Did you know that the streak just turned gray when she was 11? She apparently had a clause in her Pantene contract saying that she could keep it.


 I am addicted to What Not to Wear, and I adore Stacy and Clinton. Stacy especially finds a cool balance between being into girly-girl things and not being cloying.


 Did you know she started out as a fashion assistant at Vogue? That she was the senior fashion editor at Mademoiselle? For me, she just appeared out of nowhere one day on What Not to Wear with that mangy first co-host, so this was all really interesting to me. She also styled several fashion shows, celebrities and fashion spreads. She pretty much kicks ass.


Another thing that surprised me to hear is that Stacy has long struggled with weight issues, and suffered from psoriasis. She claims her weight has been everything from a size 0 to a size 16. She always seems so confident and lovely that this is hard for me to imagine. She says, "It really took a great deal of work to recognize that at all those weights, no matter how I felt, I could still find a dress that made me feel sexy and powerful." Suddenly her deft understanding of women on the show who feel ugly because they are a larger size makes so much more sense. She can help them find a confidence she had to struggle for herself.


 To say Stacy London is one of my favorites would be a gross understatement. I mean, shut the front door! How adorable is she?

America's Next Top Model Premiere

Are you guys watching the newest episode? It's silly and juvenile and over the top (as usual), but oh my god, I am crazy in love with the guest model's outfit:


Ugh. Seriously. I die.

It's killing me right now that my OTK black leather boots blew out and are beyond repair. Sigh.
