images: luxirare This is so f***ing wild, I'm pretty sure my jaw dropped down to the floor. You need to check out Luxirare to see the photos (and more!) enlarged. They are even more impressive when they are bigger. Using the YSL Cage Heel as inspiration, Luxirare decided (yes, just decided) to make a coat that fit the fabulosity of the shoes themselves.

So go ahead, shop with a happy conscious!

image: indie-mart It's been a long day. Danced twice, ate twice, bubble bathed once, picked through sibling's Halloween candy once. Ahhh. I will be resting steady tonight watching the 20/20 Rihanna interview but Sunday, you know where to find me. The last outdoor Indie Mart of the year. Vintage clothing, local designers, booze, bbq, DIY workshops and live music? All for $2. Yup, that's what I said. Indie Mart Street Fair Sunday, Nov. 8th 12-6pm Thee Parkside: 17th St. and down Wisconsin
If you didn't quite understand how much I love Natalie from this post, I'll repeat again: Natalie Portman is the most gorgeous living woman. Hands down.
Daria Werbowy in December's Vogue Nippon. If I could capture the weather right now, make it beautiful with long legs and a pretty face in the middle of a field, it would look like this. HOT and cold, hot and cold. Indecisive and ridiculously captivating.
