J.Crew: Gone Hollywood

Not only do I adore these looks, but I love that J.Crew incorporated different popular L.A. sites in this shoot! I'm not going to lie, it makes me want to hop on a plane and return to the city ASAP. There's short little tidbits on the different places on this series, Gone Hollywood. I can't even begin to explain to you how much I miss LA (and warm weather)! Luckily, I'll be making my way back in late February!

Proenza Schouler Pre-Fall 2011

I love the patterns and color in Proenza Schouler's Pre-Fall 2011 collection! So lovely! I don't wear a lot of patterns, but I would for sure wear these.

It's been incredibly cold here in Indiana lately. The snow is beautiful, but I am so ready for some spring weather! I'm three weeks in to my final semester. I can't believe I'm almost done with college! Time really does fly. I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend! Did you do anything fun?

Photographer: Louise Hatton

It was hard to pick a few favorites by photographer, Louise Hatton. I really enjoy her fashion photography, but I also love her personal work, which is on film. Go take a look!

Oriental Warehouse Loft by Edmonds + Lee

I really love the the blacks and whites against the wood and cement in the Oriental Warehouse Loft by Edmonds + Lee (via design to inspire). Minimalistic, but with a few touches of color and a whole lot of wide open space. I can't express how badly I wish to renovate an old warehouse into a loft! Maybe someday!

My new favorite, the golden arrow necklace by The Blue Balloon!

This necklace is my new favorite. It was a gift and it's from The Blue Balloon, one of my all-time favorite etsy shops! The necklace was featured on my post, 15 holiday gift ideas. I haven't taken it off since I opened it.  Go check her shop out for other gems! I just had to share! :)

Also, here's a little bit of inspiration from the short documentary, A Visual Life, featuring The Sartorialist.

My first, but definitely not last trip to LA

I have to say, I've definitely fallen in love with LA. I can't wait until I'm back there next! Are any of you from the area or have visited? What do you think? I hope you and yours have had a wonderful new year thus far! I have a feeling 2011 is going to be a great year!

Asos & A Belated Happy New Year!

I adore the "collegiate style meets flirty '50s shapes" of the new All-American Girl collection by Asos. I would wear all of these outfits, hands down. I just received an amazing Asos jacket from my boyfriend for Christmas. I'll make sure to upload pictures as soon as I get the chance! I've been in LA since last Monday visiting. It's my first time out here and I absolutely love it. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and I'm sorry for my lengthy absence!

Also, make sure to tune into Jimmy Fallon tomorrow night (Tuesday the 4th) to catch Local Natives! I can't wait!
