argh. i admit that it's a little hard to post when one is in the middle of midterm exams. i'm a little distracted.
hopefully this weekend will ease up a little in regards to the weather/workload. hoping to break out that vivid pink lippie on saturday night! how cute does Rachel Bilson look in hers, it matches her so well!

I'm literally kicking myself for not visiting Tartine Bakery the last time I was in San Francisco a couple of months ago. Due to an hectic schedule I had to pass it up even though I had it circled on my city map in red and mentally chartered a bus route there and everything. Next time I'm most definitely going! I was so happy to see that The Selby had gone behind the kitchen to take some images of Chad Robertson and Elizabeth Prueitt's bakery. Beautiful images! There is nothing more comforting than a piece of freshly-baked, crusty bread for sure!

I've already posted about Kimberley of Wildfox Couture's lovely collages here but I thought I should post some more images that I have saved on my desktop. They're just too good not to share. I hope you had a lovely, warm Monday today!

I'm seriously thinking of maybe getting that white mesh tank top from Isabel Marant even though I have literally seen it everywhere in magazine editorials and blogs. What do you think? Is it a good investment for summer?

I think side slits on dresses are super sexy when buttoned-up and done right with just the right amount of flesh showing. All right folks, get out that red lipstick. It's a Friday night!!!

Wahhhh...I really wish I was at Coachella right now relaxing poolside with a mojito (my ultimate summer drink) or a vodka in hand. I adore pool parties- it's the closest I can get to an expanse of water in the middle of a city or in this case, a desert, where I can pretend I'm beach side! I spy Rumi! <3

Can't wait to get into my white blazer again this Spring! I plan to wear mine with my chucks like the gal above- laid back chic.

Today I spent a lovely (windy) afternoon in Yeido looking at the cherry blossoms in bloom so I've decided to dedicate this post to everything pale pink. Spring is definitely here!!!

The first image is probably the picture that made me fall hard for Estonian model Carmen Kass. Beautiful face. Beautiful body. She's still definitely up there in my personal top five. Can you believe that these were taken just over 10 years ago? And that those white boy shorts, tank top and cardigan are by CHANEL????!! Who'da thought Chanel did Calvin Klein/Michael Kors' Celine minimalism back in the day?
