Sick Inspiration

I'm not the type of girl that gets sick that often.  I must have done something bad though, because karma was a bitch, and now I'm sicker than I've ever been.  Can't breathe, sore throat, fever, chills, puking and headache.  I really think that I'm sick with like 5 viruses at once.  The good thing about being sick though (yeah, there's always an upside), is that I have all the time in the world to post to my sadly neglected blog.  Its crazy but whenever I'm sick I'm so much more productive.

Be warned though, the DayQuil has me a bit woozy, so the pictures may not make sense when put together!

He's like the epitome of the ideal hipster boyfriend.



Man, I would kill for hair like her's!


This reminds me so much of the first and only time that I smoked a cigarette!

I wonder if these shoes will be available anywhere for Black Friday?

If I wore this my mother would surely call me a slut....but since when have I cared?

Yes, she has a great ass!

Free People: Always Inspiring Me!

Free People is a brand that never ceases to impress me.  I find myself dying to have glance at their new lookbooks.  Sometimes, when I'm out of money I look through the stuff that they have on sale anyways JUST to be inspired to put together new and eclectic outfits.  There's always something so magical about the brand.  I can tell that so much effort goes into making every outfit in the lookbooks "perfectly imperfect".  If you don't know about the brand, check out some of the great shots I found on the site......

Somehow, this works...they make even the craziest combinations WORK!

The photographer did such an amazing job...the colors are just incredible!

This reminds me of a top my grandmother used to have.

This is the kind of homeless person I'd like to be

Totally reminds me of Angela's style in "My So-Called Life"

My dad has one of these sweaters...consider it officially missing, Daddy!

This is such a simple, go-to outfit

Look a lot like Gillian Zinser's style (that I LOOOVEE...hmmmm I should post about her sometime)

Must purchase these soon.

Grandma-chic....my favorite style!  

This is such a perfect party dress...not too sexy, but just as entrancing. 

The brand is a bit on the pricey side, so if you can't buy the items at least take some inspiration from the gorgeous outfits their stylists put together.  That's what I do when my online orders have left me broke!  Go check out their site, maybe you'll see something you simply MUST HAVE!  http://www.freepeople.com/

Free People!!!!

One of my favorite brands of all time is Free People!  Their last lookbook was a major source of inspiration for me.  The 70's and bohemian vibes they portrayed were incredible...it was one of my favorite lookbooks of the season.  Now they have launched their April 2011 catalogue, with none other than Sasha Pivovarova as their model.  Look at it below, you won't regret it!!!

A bohemian jumper!  Notice the yellow tribal paint on Sasha's arms.  I'd like to know who designed those wonderful pieces of jewelery.  I need to get my hands on some of those!

GOODNESS!  This is just unbelievable!  Somebody please tell me who the stylist was in this shoot, that person deserves a party!  

Her fishtail braid...the sheer skirt...the jewelery, all that is awe-inspiring on its own.  The baby leopard however, was the cherry on top of this delicious fashion sundae!

I am SO glad flared pants are back!  I've been missing them for years!

Look at that skirt! The doily material in front is just a plus on an already gorgeous piece!

I'm making an impulsive purchase and ordering those shoes....I NEED them!

I literally gasped when I took a look at this shot!  The photographer, Guy Aroch, is must be oozing talent, because this is unbelievably beautiful!  The colors and the lighting are sheer perfection.

I'm having a fashion overdose right now....WOW!!!

I think the concept behind this shot was that Sasha's look was inspired by the peacock's feathers.  Its marvelous!

I was once obsessed with this brand, and this catalogue has raised my degree of obsession by 200 percent!!! I am going over to their site this instant http://www.freepeople.com/, and ordering in bulk!

Floral Femininity...and Masculinity Too!!!!

" Flowers?  For Spring?  How original."  That is the most epic line from one of my all time favorite movies...The Devil Wears Prada.  Well be they original or not, I don't care and neither do the majority of the designers, whose collections for Spring/ Summer 2011 were complete meadows.  Whoever is coming up with the ideas for a lot of the editorials that I've seen recently are obviously not caring either.

 I am so being influenced by florals right now.  I swear, my mom is getting annoyed because I keep asking her to hand over all the florals that she has in her closet.  According to her, my mourning for the bagfuls of clothes (there were so many cute floral tops and skirts in there!!!!!) she gave away last year to the less fortunate, because they were "Out of style anyway", is absolutely ridiculous.  WELL IT'S NOT!!!!!!  I want to rip those florals away from the homeless ladies that must be parading around in them right now....I had the right to inherit them first!

Ok enough with my ranting....here's some pictures of the florals that I'm currently inspired by.........................

The wonderful Lily Donaldson in the two above pics!

Olga Sherer!!!!

Free People campaign...now I know this isn't a floral, but the color of the dress is so flower-like.

Nicole, looking as gorgeous as ever!

Again, not a floral that Bambi is wearing here, but the colors in her skirt are so flowery!

Brown with teeny-tiny flowers...so cute!

She's carrying flowers!

Pink+Lace= Flowers!

One of my FAVORITE BLOGGERS EVVVVERR...Karla from Karla's Closet, wearing this epic dress (I know, I know I use that word to describe everything!)  Check her blog out! http://karlascloset.blogspot.com/

My OTHER favorite blogger, whose posts are like my fashion medications, the Vintage Virgin....although I think she's the QUEEN of Vintageland!  Head on over to her blog too http://msvintagevirgin.blogspot.com/

And although my mom says I look like a stripper with thigh-high socks, I'm getting me some just like the ones in the pic above.  They look so epic (there I go again, sorry!) with that minidress!

And these two?????  Yes I think men look so sexxxyyy with florals on!  Notice the pants on the first model and the adorable shirt and shoes on the last one.

Let me know what you think please. Leave your comments down below ladies...and gentlemen too!
