on my mind

  

 thanks CFR for some of these yummy images!

i may need a MAP for this day

and scallops.  and really looooooong hair.

Miansai Cool

i normally don't love jewelry on men... but when mark and i were in st barth we spotted these vintage, beachy looking, handmade bracelets by Miansai and i suggested he try one on.  i was SHOCKED when mark actually bought one and even more shocked that i actually liked it on him.  i think they are cool enough for guy or gal. and because he hasn't worn his since the trip?  it's now MINE-- yippee!.

the rope and brass anchor ones are my favorite

mark got this one 

the leather variety

old-school rope

naturally J.crew is carrying these now.  you can also find at miansai.com

good inside and out

i still love buying big, fat books in a world of digital ones.  this weekend i bought Edith Wharton's "Three Novels of New York" mostly for the cover art done by Richard Gray.  it wasn't a totally shallow purchase though-- as i am also over-due for a revisit to some old favorites.  and when i'm done- it will be a pretty item in a room.

inside this dinosaur?

The House of Mirth, The Custom of the Country and The Age of Innocence.

instagram GLAM

experimental fashion photographer and SHOWstudio founder Nick Knight produced some pretty darn PRETTY images for a first ever fashion shoot using INSTAGRAM.  my fave?   this one...

also- if you're a DAPHNE GUINESS fan- check out Knight's  SHOWstudio   for today's feature on Guinness' "unique take on Fashion Fetish in a haunting film".  it's um, yet again, experimental.
