Birthday Binge! Part III

And now for the third and final installation of the birthday binge.

TOPS
($168, TFNC, LF Stores)
Cute, but that's seriously not a dress.


($120, Nanette Lepore, Gracygirl.com)


($150, Parameter, Gracygirl.com)
Oddly cute.


($252, IMSO, LF Stores)
I saw this this weekend in its various colors. It's way cuter in person (unlike most of the horbs stuff at LF, like high-waisted button-up shorts with suspenders. That store is wack, y'all.)



ACCESSORIES

($292, Philip Crangi, Thisisauto.com)
Gorgeous.


($290, Jane D'Arensbourg, Thisisauto.com)Made from melted Pyrex.


($78, AH Jewelry, AHJewelry.com)
Love these even more than the peacock feather earrings.


($46, Sorrelli.com)
In keeping with my current huge cocktail ring obsession.


($268, Haydenharnett.com)
I would commit a minor legal infraction for this bag.


($58, Urban Expressions, Shopsueyboutique.com)
I don't have a tiny dog to stick inside this bag, but I still like it for some reason.



($220, Lauren Merkin, Activeendeavors.com)
Most totes perfect envelope clutch.


($645, Kooba, Activeendeavors.com)
I don't mean to sound like a cheesebag, but this bag is decadent.


($114, Virginia Johnson, Thisisauto.com)
Yes, we all love nauticals, and this is no exception. Now let's get this damned summer over with so we can bust out the Oxford heels already!!!

Random Stuff I Want + Some Horrid Stuff I Definitely DON'T Want

Iodice = pretty princess!!


($328, Iodice, Couturecandy.com)
See??? Toldja!


($178, Max Azria BCBG, Nordstrom)


($108, Fighting Eel, Shopgreenapple.com)
Hip, hip HOORAY for black and grey!



($396, Jenni Kayne, Shopbluegenes.com)
Cute enough, no?


($210, Poshgirlvintage.com)
So darling, but, um... about that 26" waist? Yeah.


($28, Nyandcompany.com)
Apparently the formerly MORTS New York & Company now has some cute stuff! Yay!



TOPS
($235, Rory Beca, Activeendeavors.com)
Eeee! Interlocking bird graphic!


($162, Mike & Chris, Chocosho.com)
Oh Mike & Chris. When, oh when, will you sell out and do a line for Target?

($60, Coexist, Shopgreenapple.com)
Get it? Los York? "Los" and "York"? Get it!?


BAGS
($50, Oohboutique.com)
Such a perfect fall bag.


($32, Amiciaccessories.com)
HeLLOOOOO Crayola brights!


($13, Lulusfashionlounge.com)
Presh!


($48, Vintage, Polkadotsandmoonbeams.com)
Totes fun.


($165, Virginia Johnson, Activeendeavors.com)
... Speaking of totes, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, 'ki have EVERY Virginia Johnson bag they have over at Active Endeavors??? Oh, and the tops too, please.

RANDOM THING
($4, Weheartheartbreaker.etsy.com)
These '80s/'90s teen heartthrob bedazzled watches are effing hilarious. I love that Andrew McCarthy gets his due here. And yes, that's Joey Jeremiah for all you Canooks/ watchers of Degrassi High. He was the Northern version of Jon Cryer, for all of you unawares.


HORBS STUFF
($140, Superfine London, Shopjake.com)
I actually love a lot of Superfine London's jeans, but these are absolutely an execption. Why? Oh, because they're SILVER! Awful.


($185, Iodice, Couturecandy.com)
Even having arms like this lady with the Anna Karenanakournikovanoff crazy eyes is no reason to wear butterfly sleeves. So terrible. So Stevie Nicks. So bad.


($363, Raw-7, Couturecandy.com)
This sweater is what's wrong with today's youth.


(Juicy Couture, Neiman Marcus)
There's so much wrong here I just don't even know where to start, so I won't.


(575, Neiman Marcus)
Um, is this kid freaking you out? Because he's totally freaking me out right now.


(Apprx $33 USD, Laredoute.co.uk)
Remember all those jokes about what was in MC Hammer's pants and why they hung so low? They totally apply. Do these pants come with adult diapers or something? So terrible. I am slowly taking back what I said about the UK LaRedoute being so far superior from its US sister. At least we don't have poopy pants!!!

Sweet Sweet Virginia Johnson

I love love love love Virginia Johnson. She's a Canadian designer and illustrator (check out her online portfolio) and a total textile pro. Her designs -- usually set against an off-white background -- are bright and bold and absolutely never garish (not that I have anything wrong with that!), done in cool watercolors. Her all-over prints are usually big and youthful but don't make you look like a toddler. Yay! A few pieces I totes love...



($150, Virginia Johnson, Activeendeavors.com)
Love the watermelony effect created by this pairing.



($172, Virginia Johnson, Ronherman.com)
I'd totes adore this in orange too.



($140, Virginia Johnson, Nonchalantmom.com)
While I'd be REALLY apprehensive about shopping at any store with "Mom" in its name, I might have to get over it for this amazing camel wrap. Do you see enough camel prints out there? No. No you don't.



($265, Virginiajohnson.com)
Similarly, how many passion fruit prints do you see out there in the world? Not enough, in my book!



($45, Virginiajohnson.com)
You can also buy just straight-up fabric from her site. I love this "posy" design.
