Deborah Lippmann: nail lacquer

For those of you who are not familiar with Deborah Lippmann, she is an expert fashion manicurist who has her own nail polish line. What's so cool is that her nail polish isn't simply nail polish. I mean she gets to work with celebrities for new colors, and comes out with some really cool collections. And of course, as true with most nail polishes, the colors have very clever names. Here are a few of my favorite shades:









from left to right: just walk away renee (by renee zellwager), happy birthday! (one of their newest shades), don't call me baby (operah's pick for the summer), tiny dancer

You can buy these shades online, but most of it's sold out.

A Season for Ms.Matching

I love how in the attempt to stay warm at any cost, people wear some pretty ridiculous stuff. When you live somewhere cold, it doesn't matter if you look kinda weird, as long as you are warm. Well this is me in the lounge, staying warm and displaying the latest it's-so-unbelievably-cold-outside fashion.

Agyness and I say bye to Chicago

Well, finals week is over and I'm going to head back home on Thursday. I've done lots of packing and last-minute shopping. Goodbye, Chicago! I'll miss your snow and ever-windy sidewalks.

P.S. How amazing is Agyness in this photo shoot?

Shoe Lust

I want these. So fucking badly. The $3480 price tag is pretty off-putting though.
Site you can buy them at
The amazing Luxirare post I found them in.

Male Modeling

My dear brother is stuck in a house full of girls. There's four of us against one of him, the poor thing. This is what we have done to him.
