zachary's smile.
i'm kind of dying over the fact that i can't get one of these dresses from new-to-me brand zachary's smile.
psst. help a greedy girl out & get a gilt invite here.
pergolina.
some things that i certainly don't need, but definitely want...
well, i could really use the knives. they are great, right?
also, while we're talking kitchen, i'm loving this sake set and this GORGEOUS drink dispenser.
ok, and while we're on the subject of bedrooms (oh, we werent?), i have to have this colorful quilt from pakistan. love. it.
kind boutique half-off vintage sale!
go now for some sweet (& super-affordable) vintage finds from greedy girl sponsor kind boutique... but it only lasts 72 hours, so you know... hurry.
(half-off your order when you buy two or more vintage pieces... just use code vintage at checkout.)
if these were a teeeensy bit smaller, i'd be all over them.
now, go forth and buy vintage.
daeja fallas.
funny small world! as i was clicking around the photographer's site from the my last post, i realized i had actually been waiting to feature these gorgeous shots. AMAZING. i would actually probably kill someone to have that second, sparkly one hanging huge on my wall. just saying.
go here for more on these shots, and go check out some more gorgeous things at the studio's etsy shop.
gypsy.
i love when underwear doesn't have to be lacy or shiny or racy to be sexy. kate ruggiero's gypsy line of pretty panties is handmade on oahu (lucky girl) with unique and comfy fabrics. go here to read a profile on kate and the story behind her line. it's super-inspiring, and i wish her tons of success in hawaii.
also, the photography's not so shabby either, is it?
quote bag studio.
it had been a while since i had checked in on this shop but wow! i've missed a lot.
i really, really love this and especially this one... both would make for perfectly fine fall bags. oh, and this one.
welcome, erica weiner jewelry!
you know i love a good sparkle. and i know you do, too. and that's why i know you'll love erica weiner jewelry, greedy girl's newest sponsor.
i'm sure you've already heard the name. maybe you've even snatched up a few of their one-of-a-kind pieces. seriously one-of-a-kind: ring cast from 19th century scottish wax seal? check. necklaces made from old pen nibs found in an old barn? they've got that, too. tiny silver hummingbird skull on a chain? oh yes. it's my favorite — and has been for a while.
oh, and erica has a pretty badass bob, too.
so head over there now, check out their cache of curiosities. and when you find something you like, they'll pick up the tab on shipping if you join the mailing list. then, through july 31, just enter freeshipjuly in the 'voucher' section at checkout.
thank you to both erica weiner jewelry and all my lovely and greedy readers for your support.
OH and i almost forgot to mention... don't you love the vintage ephemera used in the photos and on the site? well, lucky you, you can get a big pack of it here.
club monaco.
if you haven't already, you're probably going to want to scoot on over to the club monaco website. why? because garance dore shot the fall lookbook (and, it's amazing). also? there's a charming little video that will have you wanting to be byrdie bell in new york eating croissants.
just trust me.
welcome, ruche!
i've been a big fan of ruche for so long that i'm over the moon to announce them as my newest sponsor. why i love them:
1. their selection is huge. seriously. just trying to get this post together took forever because i had the hardest time narrowing my favorites down.
2. their prices are insane. watch out, anthropologie. the tops at top (those are FOXES at the left, fyi)? right around $30 apiece. those dresses? no more than $40. the necklace and earrings? each under $15. no kidding.
and, finally, 3. i've found a substitute for my completely unaffordable alexander wang hankering. it's $50, and it's adorable.
i hope you'll head over to ruche right this second to give them a big greedy girl welcome. and you might also want to check out their blog because that's where you can find special discount codes. (and sign up for their e-mails, too.)
thank you so much to ruche for joining greedy girl's amazing group of sponsors.
out of print clothing.
so, i'll be honest. i judge books by their covers. not all the time. of course not. but most of the time? yes. definitely most of the time.
my favorites are the classics. you know, the ones that barnes & noble has printed really big.
that's why i was really pretty jazzed when i found out about out of print clothing. genius idea. if i could, i'd have them all. but my favorite? f. scott fitzgerald's tales of the jazz age. and i love the red cardigan girlie up there has paired it with.
oh but wait! i almost forgot the best part: they do good and donate one book for every shirt sold. i like that.
did you know to kill a mockingbird turned 50 this weekend? amazing. and... speaking of 50, did you know IRA GLASS is 51?! holy wow. i first discovered this via wit + delight, who discovered it via out of print's blog. full circle, folks!
tucker by gaby basora.
i am really, really drawn to silk lately. maybe for the first time ever, though i don't know why that is. but these tops from gaby basora don't put up much of an argument against it, do they? it just looks so easy.
via pretty mommy.
canvas.
there is way too much to love going on at canvas. like that chair.
oh my god.
that chair.
via simple lovely.
graham & green.
a few things i really, really don't need. but at the same time... i really, really need them.
the globe is, well, wow. and the bookshelves? i dig. and then you all know where i stand on postal ephemera.
bows.
kind of loving them. you're with me, right?
bow tote from soraam (via shiny squirrel), felix ray clutch, red valentino t-shirt (!), chinese laundry shoes (they're called sweet caroline...i like that), betsey johnson earrings, skirt from ruche.
annie greenabelle for topshop.
i know it's just the start of july, but i catch myself occasionally longing for a crisp, fall day.
... and then, i see dresses like these, and i wish summer would last forever. what do you think? over summer already?
happy fourth, part two.
i swear i'm really not so patriotic. but i came across this dress and wished i had ordered it in time to get down to main street* for the fourth of july parade. and then i found this semi-ridiculous hat that really couldn't be more perfect for the dress. and then, well, the clutch only seemed natural.
*i don't know what main street or parade i am speaking of, but you see my point. think mayberry.
hello!lucky.
are you getting married? i am not. but i have loved these invites since the day i first set eyes on them. we need a bridge in oklahoma city like the golden gate bridge so that these would make perfect sense for me to use.
until that happens, though, if you've got a wedding in your future, please enter to win this giveaway from hello!lucky. please!
they are giving away 50 of their digital invitations (which, i believe, they recently launched and are a brilliant idea for the cost-conscious couple). just click on over there and leave a comment by july 12.
via (recently re-established san franciscoan!) kathryn of snippet & ink.
happy july 4.
i hope everyone has a happy one.
v-neck from calypso st. barth, miu miu flats (denim!), scarf from hayden-harnett, hilarious wartime print from wallblank, fun pom poms, skirt from les nouvelles.
lauren moffatt.
i want to live in lauren moffatt's world. who wouldn't, with product names like the meandering in marrakkesh dress or the somewhere in stockholm on a bike with a basket romper or the caught by a blustery breeze in belize blouse?
i can say with no doubt whatsoever that i'd like to be doing all of the above.
caroline seikaly.
how have i not ever come across designer caroline seikaly? apparently she is big and famous and i've been living under a rock. but WOW. look what i've missed under my rock. and this isn't even part of her actual bridal collection.
speaking of the bridal collection, the caroline and carla are my favorites. you'll just have to click on over there since i can't link to them directly. and, while you're visiting, you'll probably need to take a peek at her fall collection. it's like beetlejuice meets badgley mischka (or, what i like to call, PERFECTION).
alex & eli.
to usher in the cold front that will be sweeping through the state today, i thought we could all ogle these rich fall looks. (i love how the lips and nails lighten up the dark clothes.)
question: do you let your toenails go naked? i can't stand for mine not to be painted.
