girl from lookbook.

where i will be spending the next week.

it's like god created these flickr sets just for me.

imagine what a nice world we'd live in with posters like these. plus other classics such as this and this.

some things i find myself in dire need of... if only i had an entire paycheck to blow.

p.s. my take thursday will be up later in the day... still deciding on my favorite look for the week.

IN LOVE.

as you may have already noticed, i am not big on capital letters. they are ugly and i am adamantly against them whenever i can get away with it (not often, being a copy editor and all).

so you know this has got to be pretty serious.

louboutin + sparkle = LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT. and the best part? knowing there are sweet red soles under there.

thanks to hot child in the city for getting me all hot and bothered.

old navy.

i picked these up today at old navy, and i can't wait to get some wear out of them. like when it's not 98 degrees.

three more weeks until my high caps out at 80. lovely.

both of these jackets are super-soft... first one, and the second one. i recommend. and, somehow, one rang up at like $14. so, go me.

public enemies.

i won't lie... i've been waiting months and months to see public enemies. johnny depp & marion cotillard & christian bale & cars & clothes.

cannot wait.

chloe.




how could you not adore her?

must watch.

prism london.

so i'm sure at one point i said i'd never spend more than $25 on a pair of glasses ever again.

well... these amazing styles by newly launched prism london have me seriously rethinking some things.

yellowgoat.

it absolutely kills me that i haven't visited this shop sooner.

good monday morning.

here's some blonde inspiration for you.

shot for a saturday.

i love everything about this, starting with that shoe.

THAT SHOE.

i'm partial to a good saddle shoe anyway, but THAT HEEL. i need that heel. ok, greedy girls, tell me where i can find them.

via we heart it.

mysterious letters.

brilliant.

i wish i'd receive mysterious things in the mail! bills lose their mystery over some time.

via simple song.

i hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. i will!

puma.


if they'd just dip below the $100 mark, these puma damenwahls would be mine. i'm looking for a good, comfy shoe for europe, and these look like they would more than fit the bill. so why can't they be just a little bit more on sale?

norma kamali for walmart.

who knew?

p.s. a little mj tribute after a long, long newspaper night.

pugly feet.



shoes? check. pug? check. macarons? check.

favorite new blog? i think so.

my take thursday.

this week's 'my take thursday' star is this ultra-cool-looking girl from the minneapoline. thought this was a great shot, loved the colors and realllly loved that hat. so, my take:

corso como jordan shoes | forever21 glasses | eugenia kim panama hat | wet seal woven belt | aerie ruffle coverup

if you missed the first installment, don't forget to check it out! this week's, admittedly, was a bit tougher than last time.

melissas.

i can only imagine how angry my feet would be, but i kind of dig them.

frilly frocks.

funny thing.

a couple years back, i was doing my regular blog thing and stumbled upon this girl by the sart. i was so blown away because i thought she looked exactly like me: the hair, the skin, the non-smile, the frump... everything!

i just thought it was so wild.

now that i wear glasses all the time (it's a wonder what they can do for eyesight) and experienced survived the hairtastrophe of '09, i'm having a bit more difficulty seeing it. it might be those extra pounds i've put on, though. it's always those extra pounds...

that's all for this segment of 'a glimpse into caroline's life.' stay tuned.

urban outfitters, part 2.

i need to stock up on a few more straw hats for the summer...these are from u.k.'s urban outfitters, but the u.s. site has more than a few to swoon over.

urban outfitters.

animal prints don't normally do it for me, but wow, this dress certainly does. and how about the other one? quite nice, i think.

whimsyville vintage.

my heart is breaking into a thousand sparkly little pieces for these shoes.

mustache stash.

on a related note (ok it was the impetus behind the mustache post)... a funny read. hooray for mustache-free kisses!
