Lately












My schedule has been insanely busy lately, what with working, interning, working more, doing school work, and of course, online shopping (it's really more exhausting than you'd think). I feel as though I've been neglecting my blog because of this crazy schedule, but I've made it my goal to post more in my free time given my much more accommodating Spring schedule. 

Here are some of my latest Polyvore creations which I have started pinning obsessively onto my wear it board. And I don't use the word "obsessively" casually. Yeah.

Cheers, 

Sam

Fashion Illustrated






I fell in love with this editorial after first seeing it in the January/February Issue of FOAM magazine. The punchy styling and cool prints look awesome on the stark white background, but it was the cool illustrations by model Langley Fox Hemingway that really caught my eye. My favorite is probably the little kitty. Meow.

I would love to be able to draw and work with mixed media like the talented Ms. Hemingway, but alas, my drawing abilities only go as far as stick figures. Whatever.

Cheers, 

Sam

Safari

Not gonna lie, my first thought upon seeing these photos from the Jalouse editorial were "Oh my God it's Jane from Tarzan." The hair, the hat, the fitted trousers and neat cognac oxfords-- it's like real life Jane if she had had enough space in her tree house for the most fabulous closet ever. 

It's also a little reminiscent of the 40's fashion, when Katherine Hepburn first endeavored into menswear. I can totally imagine this model being her chic niece on one of those charitable mission trips to Africa that all celebrities feel inclined to do. I can tell you one thing, if I ever go to Africa (or even South America for that matter), I'll wear these outfits shamelessly.

Cheers,

Socialite Goes to the Tropics









Palm fronds and leafy green floral motifs are my favorite thing about this season's flower power looks. Always a big fan of mixing prints, I was naturally drawn to FOAM magazine's "Mai Tai" editorial. And the short, bleached pixie with micro bangs? Tres chic.

Can't wait to buy a two piece floral set for summer. I'm currently deciding between a matching printed blazer/ shorts set or crop top/ skirt combo. Either way my friends will probably chastise me relentlessly but what do they know about style anyway. They just don't get me.

Cheers to the freakin' weekend!

City High, From Down Under










Look! Cool urban images from the City High lookbook by Australian retailer Beginning Boutique!

I don't know what the Aussies have been doing differently lately, but they should keep it up. I'm pretty much obsessed with MINKPINK, Somedays Lovin', One Teaspoon and all those other rockin' Australian labels. 

The bright colors and graphic prints are what make these looks all winners in my book. Oh, and the leather baseball cap? Yes please.

G'day, mate!

Everyday I'm Tumblin'











I basically use my tumblr as an outlet for all of the weird and nonsensical images that appeal to me, and decided to post a couple of my favorites from the past couple of weeks for no reason in particular. So please disregard the randomness of the images and take them at face value for the truly awesome visual treats that they are. 

Enjoy, 

Sam
