Marvelous Monday: ModelMayhem Edition

Light on links this week; heavy on eye candy!

Also, I just found this lovely jewelry at Sugar Mafia. About everything on the website is gorgeous, but these three are my favorites. Oh, the chandelier necklace. *drool
Hope you all had a great weekend and are having a fabulous Monday!

These are a few of my favorite things…

I was tagged by Leigh at Bitch, Please, who is fabulously snarky and very funny, so go read her blog. But in the meantime, here’s 20 things that I love!

Color. I’m probably going to have to say bright turquoise on this one, although it’s a pretty tough pick between that and hot pink.
Dessert. Um. Does [...]

Ice Cold Lemonade
Edited by Clutch 22

Compiling this week’s round up of posts hit closer to home for me. I think we can all relate to the times where stress builds up and blocks inspiration. Reading each of these individually was the exact refreshment I needed (hence “lemonade”), especially with my birthday coming up next week [...]

Defining Your Personal Style: Finding Your Focus

(a little photo from my new sewing room/work area…I set all of my shoes up on display!)
Everyone has favorites. It’s only natural to like one thing the most out of a group! So here’s where you ask yourself: what’s my favorite part of getting dressed in the morning?
Seems like a silly question, I know. [...]

Decline Designs Shop Grand Re-Opening!

I am SO excited to announce that today is the grand re-opening of the shop! I have listed all sorts of yummy vintage dresses, all very reasonably priced (there isn’t anything in the shop right now over $50 and I’m going to try and keep it that way!). I have more things on the way [...]

10 More Places + Ways to Find Inspiration

After posting in the personal style series about finding inspiration, I thought I’d make another list of wacky and not-so-wacky ways to find inspiration:

Books! Pretty obvious, I’ll give you. Coffee table books – maybe one on a subculture? Orrr vintage fashions? Rock posters? Or of course; there’s always fiction. Alice in Wonderland is a terrific [...]

Defining Your Personal Style: Having “Go-To” Outfits

This is more of a project for after you have a good grasp on your personal style, but it is definitely something to think about if you have the time! When I asked other Twitterers (is Tweeters the correct term? hm…another useless thing to ponder) what topics they’d like to see me cover, one of [...]

Pretty neat, no? Here’s [...]

Comfortable Cute Shoes Series: Privo

Disclaimer: I haven’t actually tried these out myself (yet!). But there are rave reviews on almost every pair and an employee at the store I used to work at said they were awesome and had amazing padding; so I’m going ahead!
The Brand: Privo is owned by Clarks, who also makes comfortable shoes (some are cute, [...]

Marvelous Monday

You know the drill! There will probably be a few not-of-the-usual items on this list since I’m not planning on doing a Things I Love Thursday post this week. Without further ado….

The Hellz Bellz summer 2009 collection is very droolworthy!
Hell yes, lady!
This post at Dream Sequins made me feel all sniffly-but-happy.
I really love to put [...]
