Greetings Earthlings...
Well I am back to my blog after a time away. You know...sometimes, the internet just overwhelms me, and I realize I am spending way too much time online, and not enough doing the things, and being with the people, that help sustain me. I start feeling kind of scattered and lost. And when that happens, I know it's time to hide for a while.
Lately, I find myself collecting lots of textures...an interesting thing for me to do since for so long, my design style has been about flattening everything out. Over the weekend, though I had a little cold, I assembled this grouping up here. The Scrummy surfer Baja look is trending pretty big right now...so I wanted to add some of my own picks. The trick with this look is to add the right notes that say one is AWARE of the trend, without looking like you've been sleeping in the same drug rug in a beach shack for 40 hazy nights. Although, actually... that could be fun, too.
Love this creatively rough way accent a structural accessory: here and here
The geometric accent on this bag gives an urban edge: here
A really versitile and wearable way to channel the iconic Drug Rug: here
And,I can't figure out if I like the bottom or the top of of this huarache wedge sandal better: here
a nice break from the internet sounds great! love your picks, those shoes are incredible!

aren't they, though? i keep stalking those shoes, online. somehow, they are just so right! But I feel like they might make my feet look humongous (size 9) : )

Me too...While I'd never wear Rodarte tights, I feel like these would be pretty easy to get away with, and they have that look, plus!
