Look alikes

Dogs and their owners, you know?

kelsey-leroy-gap-shirt-dress

Shirt dress and flat boots — I’d wear that combo all day every day if I could. So comfy, so easy-breasy, so fun to accessorize. Shirt dress is from the Gap, boots are Frye.

mexico-beaded-belt

Beaded belt from Playa del Carmen, Mexico. (That fur you see at the top of that photo? That’d be my kitty’s paws.)

mexico-silver-mayan-calendar-cuff

Silver cuffs imprinted with the Mayan calendar — also from Playa del Carmen, Mexico. (Same spot where I found my beautiful beaded necklace.)

leather-dog-collar-studs

On Leroy? Studded leather collar from the Dog & Hydrant in Vancouver. It would look b-b-b-bad to the bone as a belt, too. Don’tcha think?

Note to self

Buy a Kelly green gown. Ideally one as fabulous as what Keira Knightley wore in Atonement.

Which reminds me to make another note to self: rent Atonement. For Valentine’s Day, mayhaps?

Converted

What was once a garage is now the world’s coolest workspace. Would you ever be starved for inspiration in a place like this? Nope.

Would you ever be able to get away with a roofless building in Vancouver? I’m not even going to answer that.

We did it, friends.

We beat ourselves at our own game. We aimed to raise $10,000 for the Red Cross’ relief efforts in Haiti.

And instead we raised more than $16,000 at Hope in Haiti. Maybe even more than $17,000. (Math was never my strong suit.) Either way, it’s incredible.

So thank you, Vancouver! And thanks again to Barcelona for being the hosts with the mosts.

Fall in love

with Sophie Conti’s incredible wardrobe. The stylist’s closet is featured over at StyleLikeU.

She’s the kind of gal you’d like to hang out with. And then hope she lets you borrow her flower halo headband.

Dreamy

Dreamy. Dreamy. Dreamy.

This shot makes me want to pack up and head out on the road in an old Mustang. Destination? Coachella! Which I am so, so, so excited to go to.

Just spent waaaaaay too long

Scrolling through the best of the Style Quotient. And no, it’s not just because I’m in it.

Garance, this has got to stop

because your photos of Rio are killing me. Wish I were there. Now.

Although I would like to be back in time for the Vancouver Olympics. Please and thank you.

I only like one thing about this photo

Everything. Zing! Love Julian Louie’s hair, his glasses, his ‘tude.

the-moment-todd-selby

Photo by Todd Selby. Which begs the question: does Selby make everyone look cool in his photos? Or does he only take photos of cool people?
