i'm loving your favorite things. the cripped hair looks great in an editorial but very few real individuals can pull it off without looking tragically middle school. i'd hav to see that.

Call Me Cat said...

Erika!!! Girly, you know I love your Inspiration boards and this one is magical. Did you make the little red heart with a brush? I love the touch. And me too for balmain's green sequins and topshop/kate moss. You'd look so good in the Emma Cooks. Any luck???

Cat! x

Inside Mode said...

Are these really your favorite things, or have you seriously been reading my mind. I love each and every single one. The Balmain dress is just magnificent! Once I saw those TopShop boots, I immediantly knew that they would one day get the FashionChalet seal of approval. The most fashion-foward there is.

Sorry for my long break...
Well I belive I owe you an answer to the designer that left me a wonderful message. It was the amzingly chic Ruffian.

Hope your doing well and can't wait to her from you!

Cate said...

Kate Moss sure is one of my favourite things too. That's one cool picture of her.
And fringes too. I couldn't imagine my style without fringes.
That green sequin dress looks amazing. Is it Claudia Schiffer wearing it?`I'm sure I saw the one (or a similar one) on Jennifer Connelly.

marykate and topshop are brilliant. i think you've spoken for all of us out there :)

Journeys Through Fashion said...

We share some of the same favorite things. I feel like I'm one of the few people who love fashion but hate Doc Martens, haha.

La Couturier said...

Your favorite things are my favorite things too! =]

I treasure my Eiffel Tower necklace; I'd be heartbroken if I'd ever lost it! It's not expensive, but it's moreso sentimental. I bought it last spring break, on the Eiffel Tower, when I went to Paris for the first time =]

Bisous,
La C.

stylewithbenefits said...

THANKS! You rock for getting back to me so quickly. :) It's only one of my fav movies. I hate when something sounds so familiar, but you just can't place where it's from. Love what she's wearing when she's roaming the streets of NYC too. Thanks again! :)

xo, Becs

Ediot said...

great collaGe. love these things too

Lauren said...

Maria was totally right- listing my favorite things always puts me in a good mood, and even more so when that list is visual! Its' great to see yours!

Lauren said...

Oh, and a story about crimped hair: In fourth grade, a friend of mine wanted to get permanent crimps in her hair. Her mom really didn't want her to, but didn't want to say flat out no, so she took her to the salon, where the stylist said that, unfortunately, it was illegal for her to give crimped hair to girls under 13.
So she settled for a perm.

Federica - Inside a bullet with butterfly wings said...

i also love snake rings!!!

boubou said...

thanks for your sweet comment on my blog !! i really like your world too :) its always a pleasure to comme and visit yours :))) photos always looks stunning !!

Have a nice week end !

Boubou xxxx

MizzJ said...

Lauren, whoa why would it be illegal to crimp a kid's hair? Oh wait, is that a scare tactic? I'm so loving EVERYTHING on this collage, except maybe the doc's; never really been a fan. This type of boho-rock style never gets old to me.

Iris said...
