my love for people who make do with what they have and make it look awesome has reached new levels here. OBVIOUSLY just go with a blue and white theme! duh.
the whole house is eclectic yet restrained. good stuff.
brunch vibes
insta favorite
one of my favorite instagram accounts to follow is john derian company. glimpes into his various stores, a few into his home and the coolest assemblages i've ever seen are what keep me in stalker mode. i stalk his personal account for more peeks into his home.
i have never been to a store. it's a bucket list place for sure. i will need bags of money. and a uhaul.
friday things
i'd be pretty devastated if gardenista/remodelista stopped posting. which is why i don't complain when they post the same shit. specifically this article which, i think, is posted once a year. every year they post it and every year i am reminded that i need to do all the things.
we are in the process of pulling out holly bushes. by we i mean mike anderson. who is literally pulling them out using a combination of his own strength and a shovel. it is recommended you pull holly bushes out of the ground with A CAR. that has a chain tied to it and the bush.
never plant holly. ever.
the streetstyle posts are sliding into my DMs and i'm back on track. not dead over everything because i am REALLY over coats in general. but digging this leather overall/shoulder baring top situation, and this structural coat/jean situation (the boots!).
this. lol "eliot"
these literally gave me flutters.
i'm kinda into this low carb tuna casserole idea. the midwesterner in me will always love a tuna casserole.
i love this pendant for a dining room and it's a REALLY great price.
spring is close and these would be cute planted with daffodils.
march vibes
it's march and i'm into it.
tabarka studio byzantine 5 tiles- i could spend days on this site and never be able to choose.
leather biker jacket - the perfect spring jacket to wear with denim and a feminine heel.
metal and fringe chandelier - i just love this and think there's a room here with the tile (fireplace surround) and the blue zebra chairs.
vintage japanese botanical mugs - is there anything more spring-like? 1 for your toothbrush. 1 for your desk. 1 for drinking.
campaign style bamboo desk - wicker forever. this piece is versatile. perfect in an entry. as a cocktail set up. a vanity. i like a piece of furniture that can re-invent itself.
linen print pillows - sandberg raphael vibes. i don't think you could go wrong with these.
black and white striped love seat - yes.
crepe dress - so good it's gone. :(
ceramic rose for table or wall - i really love this. i'd definitely hang it.
lilac mule - really cute with jeans. also really cheap.
oscars looks
i don't know what people were smoking but i hated 99% of the shit i saw. also the show is always too long and i end up missing the last 3 awards because i forget to record it with an extra hour. so now i'm mad and i'm taking it out on everyone...
it's a pretty color on her, every color looks amazing on this woman. but she couldn't walk in it and that's all i noticed when she came out on stage. then i noticed it's old time-y bathing suit vibes. that and that it resembles gum.
yeah yeah. i get it. no need to give the story behind it. i know. still hate it.
can someone give her a vitamin drip? i don't hate the dress (i might though) but only angie can get away with this type of sequined matronly fuckery. i would have loved to have seen her in something a little more form fitting with a LOT more color on her face.
she looks like a commemorative barbie.
this was my least favorite. NOTHING about this is good. nothing. just the woman in it. love her forever.
fuck you.
so fucking boring right? the equivalent of a tory burch flat.
can someone please explain this to me? i flat out think this shit is monumentally hideous.
even her face is mocking this bullshit oscar look. i'm not opposed to pants just bc they're pants. but these pants don't fit. and that's important.
margot robbie could probably literally wear anything but her red carpet looks are always so forgettable.
also it needs to be said that white is always going to conjure bridal and this is less actual bride and more wedding cake topper bride. and they both can never be erased from your mind once you see it. i'd totally make out with her though.
i just can't not see a bullet holster. she is unfuckingbelievable looking though. she might be the cutest person on earth.
there is a lot wrong here. but the number one wrong is that he covered the most amazing ass i've ever seen. rude.
this is a case of everything BUT the dress. as in everything but the dress sucked. i mean she doesn't suck. she's wonder woman.
ok now for the looks i sort of liked. emphasis on sort of.
i don't know. it's a bold choice that works for her? i would've appreciated this more without the head piece. i fucking LOVE the shoes though.
in pictures this isn't so great. also UPS vibes. but when she floated out on stage it just looked so ethereal and pretty. and it's just bold enough to stand out and be a pretty memorable look whether you hate it or not. i mean it's brown for fuck's sake and she looks good in it. kudos to her.
i still can't decide if i like this. i thought i did and then i thought no it's too pink. and she's pink and the shoes are pink. and gum vibes like viola but with less chemicals and yet, i don't hate it. maybe if lupita were in this? high five for rocking my hair cut though. maybe that's why i don't hate it.
this is kind of giving me dracula wedding feels but she looks so pretty. so i'll just sit here on this fence with it.
the looks i loved...
i think best she's ever looked. smoking hot.
this dress suits her and FITS her perfectly.
honestly. like slow clap building to full on applause great. 80 years old ya'll.
also jane fonda like totally knows exactly what looks good on her and has actual great taste. it's a winning combo.
i have no idea who this is but good lord. i mean if i stare at it too long i might think it's a little pageant-y...and her talent is looking good in yellow. and the top part of the dress and color might be a little swimsuit-y. but it fits her...like wow. also the jewelry is just enough and the hair and make up are total perfection. i can't stop staring at her.
but best dressed for me goes to...
come to mama. every time he came on the tee vee i was uncomfortable in a good way.
what say you?
