Gucci Smoochie


Just purchased a vintage 1960's Gucci Doctor Bag, similar to the one shown here.

I'm SO excited for my little love to arrive!

Will post pics of mine when she gets here :-)

A little fun fact about Gucci: Notice the stripe down the belly of this bag. Guccio Gucci (who founded the label) developed this striped webbing based off of a saddle. Read more here

Feeling a little OFF


And he describes my mood so perfectly :-)
Hopefully tonight's INSANITY (my new workout program, with Katie) will help me feel better, and less round like my little man here!

Kiss of Death


Just looking at the picture of this drink is making me uneasy....It's called "La Perla" perhaps because after 2 of these you may be showing off some of your own La Perla! These babies are served at The Enormous Room in Cambridge- where we celebrated my good friend Katie's birthday this past weekend.
Luckily- I only made it through half of one before my head began to split and I made for the door.
Happy Birthday Katie!

Smell the roses


Even in a crappy phone pic these roses are beautiful! I bought them as a little treat for myself this past Sunday- and today they have fully opened and are filling the kitchen with beautiful spring aromas.

Fashion + Heritage + Music = good secrets

This is a GOOD ONE....no word yet on the validity of this Tweet by Len Peltier, creative director of Levi's. Apparently the tweet happened, was spotted by folks at Rumor Mill...and then it mysteriously vanished..but not before below screen shot was taken. Oooooo
If the tweet is for real, which I hope, then I will be first in line to see this vid. Pictureplane <3Levis<3OpeningCeremony<3

More on that here...

Psssst.....

Overheard at New Bramin..... Lady Gaga named Polaroid creative director. Read full article here

Boston....meet Fashion


Ladies, stylemakers....get your shop on! Boldfacers is hosting an event tonight and tomorrow featuring some of Boston's best dressed and fashion editors. I really should be cutting back on the spending, considering my upcoming car purchase.....but this is too good to pass up!

She was a damn good dancer but she wasn't all that good of a girlfriend.....


In 2010- love yourself.....flaws and all, before you fall for someone else.

Grey Balloons


I love this beautiful billowy grey top found here....


Also think it looks great with the model's arm ink ;-)

Dick Weed


Haha I couldn't help it! This color has too cool of a name to keep to myself. Buy it here......or just snicker along with me :-)

Goodbye 2009

I wanted to share a few of the cool shots I got in 2009. I was so fortunate to have a year absolutely jam packed with music, travel, adventures, friends, fun and lots of inspiration.
This shot is Hong Kong- on such a short, busy trip I didn't get too many chances to get creative with pictures. But I wanted to show it anyway :-)

This is Coachella


Girl Talk @ Coachella. This was my favorite show of his all summer. Totally wild, per usual.

My best friend Amanda photographs so well. She's beautiful in person too- and I really love this one of her! Being very patriotic on the 4th of July



Ahh this might have been the coolest experience of 09- Walking down the isle from the stage where Phish performed with Bruce Springsteen...to the sound and lighting stage where we got to watch the show. Thanks to Jed:-)


This is the Decemberists from back stage at Bonnaroo. Another "once in a life time" feeling.

Aw I love this picture. This is Bonnaroo

An amazing old fashion print studio that I stumbled into while in Nashville this summer. They had this amazing library of silk screen posters from old country and rock and roll shows.


This is "so 2009" for me. Its a photo of the record wall at the Country Music Hall of Fame. There is so much history in that place. I would recommend for anyone visiting Nashville. I had so much fun here.

This is just an old honky tonk that I cam across on Broadway in Nashville. I loved the look of the old tires in the window. There was also an old wrecked car in there.

I'm so thankful for all of the amazing opportunities that 2009 sent to me. Looking forward to a great 2010!

PRPS denim love




My denim obsession is admittedly out of control. Japanese denim is a dream of mine, and I finally got my hands on some!



Super heavy, super stiff, super distressed (and, um still a little super snug!)



Love, love, love
