I've always thought Ashley was the prettiest out of the two... this editorial proved it.

Siiick boots in the June 2009 issue of Vogue UK. The first ones are 2D4.

GGGB Style Muse #3: Zoe Kravitz

Currently channeling her messy, "effortlessly cool", teenage style...
However, it's important to note that said muse and daughter of Lenny Kravitz is now 20yrs old, and that she's grown up to be a stunning young woman (Givenchy dress, YSL cage heels = WOMAN) in her own rights (actress) and style (socialite). Either way, then or now, she's definitely another one of our crushes.

Paperbag Princess

I need these! So many possibilities!
I'm now on the mission/hunt/search/lookout for "paperbag" pants...

GGGB Style Muse #1: Vanessa Hudgens

Vanessa Hudgens at the 2009 Kids Choice Awards held on Saturday, March 28 2009.

FRINGE AND DENIM. Such a cute outfit; check her out, top to bottom. Her hair, her necklace(s), her flapper-inspired tank, her studded belt, her cuffed denim shorts, her bracelets, her vintage cowboy boots. We all know what she looks like without her clothes on (LOL) but damn she is just so good at rocking casual the way I like to.

GGG Down Memory Lane #11: Crimped Hair and Florals

My mom and my sister on New Years Eve in the Philippines, circa 1988.

NYE in the Philippines is way more dope there than here. Stroke of midnight and not only are you surrounded by generations of family, but the streets are filled with colorful fireworks, lighting up the sky so beautifully that you almost forget about the lifestyle differences between what I call home and what my parents called home. I need to go back there again; wish my mom could take me with her today.

GGG Down Memory Lane #10: Family Style

Photos of my parents on a day trip to Lake Louise.





Seems like style staples haven't changed: brown leather bomber, polos, straight-legged denim.





She probably got cold and Dad being the gentleman that he is, I'm sure gave her his coat to wear. Typical young love. <3 Tapered denim, a polo too, finished off with an unpredictable red t-strap sandal.

Elizabeth and James Spring 2009 Lookbook

The Olsen twins have been an inspiration to many girls ever since they could walk and talk. Shortly after their peak (and downfall, haha) in the entertainment industry, they began to become renown for something other than acting on television or in movies: for their street style. FINALLY, seeking to narrow the gap between designer and contemporary clothing, Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen act as muses and co-designers on this new fashion label. Again it is inspired by the mix of uptown and downtown, masculine and feminine, and casual and dressy; the collection is unique in the mixture of androgynous menswear inspired blazers and shirts with delicate mini-dresses, feminine detailing, sequins and unusual fabrics. Their jewelry is pretty tough, too. Introducing: Elizabeth and James, and my personal favorites of the collection creatively put together just for you. =)





(kind of equal)

Je Suis Noir

So angry, should've bought those Frye boots at my work when I had the chance. Would've gotten them at a wicked price too, I'm sad. =(







The ingenious heel of LD Tuttle, seen here on my two favorites: the Spectre and the Creature, respectively. A chunky heel that I actually don't mind, they're actually 4" but you can't even tell. Former ballerina Tiffany Tuttle's shoes are made in Italy, and boasts a fanbase that includes, and I quote legitimately: Erin Wasson (!), Natalia Vodianova (!!), and Mary-Kate Olsen (!!!). And now me too, obviously.





The Jeffrey Campbell "No Tip" oxford. Something new to try... although these remind me of my tap shoes. Makes me wonder if I could DIY it because I have so many old pairs that are missing screws and who's taps are falling off anyways, haha.
