i absolutely love this look...i'd kill for a tight arse and toned thighs that could pull the legging, sans full coverage, look off. i suppose i could work out, but i'd rather sit on that arse than exercise;-)

elle's street chic daily is unexpressably inspirational, particularly when it's foxy looks like this!! i just bought a pair of zipper leggings yesterday (target!!!). and what with urban's 30% off all outerwear, well i might just have to get a baby pink leather motorcycle jacket...

like i said, magazine layouts...as if anyone needed telling that.

let's not forget various websites' amazing look books!! i don't know what would be better: being payed to dream up these fabulous look-montages, or setting and shooting them! shopbop has great look books, as do the two previously mentioned (refinery29 and nymag-fashion). but nearly every retail site tries its thumb at it. of course, there's always the standard fallback of magazine spreads....

i spend so much time couped on in an office in suburbia minnesota that i far-too rarely get a chance to take note (much less record) a great deal of streetstyle. which is why i love scouring blogs like refinery29 or even just nymag-fashion for their spreads!

matt will, burberry,

i have no clue! help!

i love perusing fashion week photos (big tie between street walkers and runway walkers...). but, i could never a) pull any of these looks together, much less b) wear them!!

argh! old news, i know, but it's been sitting in a folder on my computer and i just haven't had the chance to get to it...eye blonde/bleached eye brows...?? no thanks!

love zippers (unless of course they are stuck and they snag my clothes...or pinch my skin..or i'm too hefty to get them all the way up...)...there are some chic and cheap zipper fashions on lulus.com, too. but shopbop.com does a fabulous job of spotlighting the trend.

anyone up for a game of marbles? if you're anything like me, when you were younger, you horded marbles (more often than not, not to play with, because they were so damy perty!). with this new line from maleen-neel, we don't have to hide them in our sock drawers anymore!
