{Things I Love...}

1. Coffee, especially with fresh ground beans from Whole Foods, I'm still experimenting with different brands to really discover the one but it's almost impossible to go wrong with beans from Stumptown.

2. Umbrellas, especially bubble umbrellas like this one from Urban Outfitters.

3. Beautiful books with beautiful covers, like my Penguin Clothbound Classics editions of A Picture of Dorian Gray and The Hound of Baskervilles. Which are both available at Amazon.

4. Society6 and all of the fab art work they have, including my own, please excuse my {shameless self-promotion}.

5. Miu Miu, I've been obsessed ever since their collection last spring, but I'm currently loving these pumps from Net-a-Porter.

So I have this thing for birds....

in design that is. In real life they're quite loud and obnoxious, and they bite. But in design, in fashion they are lovely and beautiful. Which I why I think I may need this Marc by Marc Jacobs umbrella, it is the perfect addition to my umbrella collection. Which already includes one Marc Jacobs umbrella. But that one doesn't have a cute little bird for a handle, plus I live place where it rains on average of 285 days out of the year you can never have enough umbrellas. Get it here from net-a-porter.

Every girl needs a tiara

I am not normally the type of girl that insists on having absurd things like crowns, but this is amazing. To die for, absurdly gorgeous thing that if I was not the poorest of poor college students I would have in a heart beat. The crown was found at an estate in Lyon, France and was made in the late 1800's. Unfortunately for this lovely piece of French history I'd have to shill out $6000 from etsy.

Fall Shopping Lust

Striped top by Alice + Olivia, boots by Madewell, and purse by Rebecca Mnkoff all available at Shop Bop.

I don't normally like Tory Burch, but this Lousia Mini Bag is super fab, I kind of love it. Especially the little tassel that hangs off the side. It reminds me of my favorite Olivia Harris purse that I bought a few months ago. The bag is available via Shop Bop here.

I seem to be a little more than obsessed with everything Louis Vuitton lately. My obsession, healthy? No, not a chance. Realistic (given my current income as a poor college student) probably not going to be a whole lot I can afford. But this purse so gorgeous that I can drool a bit and hope to find a high paying job after I graduate. After all she who dies with the most fab wardrobe wins.

I have had a love affair with Sam Edelman shoes for years, but these boots are some of the most amazing shoes I've seen in a very long time. But I can't seem to decide which pair I want more, the Zoe (the gorgeous leather pair) or the Zolya (the amazing studded pair). The fact that the Zoe boots look so much like the Balenciaga boots that Mary-Kate Olsen is so fond of.

I've had an unhealthy case of design lust lately, the collaboration between Scott Campbell and Louis Vuitton is truly amazing. Not only are the bags amazing, but the matching neck tattoos are so deliciously amazing. I love them almost as much as the Chanel tattoos in the Spring Summer 2010 collection. See more of the Scott Campbell and Louis Vuitton collection at High Snobity.

I'm completely in love with these sandals, they will look fab with cute summer dresses, cuffed jeans, and pretty much everything else in my wardrobe. They're available at NeedSupply.
