getaway girl: reader's choice.

it's been one of those weeks, if you couldn't tell. i've had a nonstop headache that still won't quit, and work's been insano. i suppose i can mostly thank the thunder for the busy-at-work part — i won't complain about that. either way, the mix of everything and nothing at all has left my brain fried for the week. clearly, to the point of not making sense.

so, i'll leave this week's getaway up to you guys. where do you want to go? where do you see this outfit? any requests for future getaway girls? just drop me a line!

i hope everyone has a nice, relaxing weekend... i'm looking forward to recharging without feeling the guilt of not blogging, which has happened every day this week. then, come monday, i'll have my a-game back.

getaway girl: memphis, tenn.

why memphis? to watch the thunder wrap up this series, of course! go oklahoma city!

is anyone else paying attention to the nba playoffs? who are you rooting for? it's ok if it's not the thunder. i'll understand.

scout & catalogue.

so, i couldn't help it. had to have the zig-zag one. i am the worst saver ever. having money in my paypal is like having a hole in my pocket.

but how could i resist?

These totes are limited edition - once the fabric (sheet, curtain, tablecloth) is gone there is no way for us to replace it. ... Scout & Catalogue is heavily influenced by the bohemian beach culture of Mexico. We strive to make pieces that remind you of afternoons at secret beaches, sun kissed skin, and all day siestas.

yes, i'll take that, thanks. hurry, mailman, hurry.

a few looks to love from RACHEL rachel roy. i love this line of hers.

welcome, sponsor: jean jean vintage.

i've been holding out on y'all for a couple weeks now, waiting to introduce one of greedy girl's newest sponsors. it's mainly because i've been going back and forth over whether i need that really, really amazing sterling cuff, and i didn't want to introduce any competition while it was under consideration. but, alas, i'll share my greedy little secret:

jean jean vintage.

i'm kind of lazy when it comes to vintage anything. i'm not the digging type. i like to have a special selection curated for me. something nice and clean and organized.

so, that's where jean jean vintage comes in. the shop's collection ranges from the intricate to the obscure to the strange — in a good way, of course.

in addition to having an uncanny talent for spotting the diamonds in the rough, shop owner duff enjoys "cleaning things with tiny brushes." so see? she wants to do the dirty work for you.

also? her mission is pretty admirable:

"i'm trying to rescue pretty necklaces, rings, earrings and other baubles from the dusty antique malls and attics of the midwest and get them to new, happy homes where they can live for another 20, 40, 80 years."

thank you, jean jean!

getaway girl: washington, d.c.

i had a hard time deciding on a destination for getaway girl this week. in the end, i decided on somewhere somewhat sentimental in honor of mother's day: washington, d.c., where my mom lived when i was born. she loved being there the couple years she and my dad were there when she was about my age. the eating and the drinking, the history, the daytrips to monticello, walking through georgetown pregnant with me. things she still talks about and remembers fondly.

so, thanks to her, i love the city, too, for being big city and small town at the same time. come to think of it, my mom, grandma and i celebrated mother's day there four years ago. wow, time flies.

loup charmant.

this is how i'd like my summer to look. and my hair, for that matter. now i'm inspired to go pick up some great cotton and make magic with it. but not that kind of magic. because i can't do that. or, i could just save my pennies, and get myself one of those lovely dresses. that sounds easier. this one is especially beautiful on the model.

in the mood for... skirts to die for.

amazing raffia skirt by matthew williamson and awe-inspiring volcano skirt from carven. you see that lava at the bottom, don't you?

getaway girl: london.

it turns out that this never actually published last week. so, i give it to you now. three days late to a wedding nearly three decades in the making. that sounds about right.

...

so you can be sure that if i'd been invited to the royal nuptials, i'd have had fun with it. but since i wasn't, i suppose i'll just save this for a rainy day.

cheers, friends.

twigs & honey.

i'm charmed by veils today. can you guess why?

how many of you braved the early morning to watch will & kate tie the knot? yeah, i'm guilty, too. what were your thoughts? it made me want to be a princess, i'll tell you that much.

but, onto a more realistic pipe dream (if there is such a thing)... i've spent today trying to figure out how i can quit my job and become a milliner. any tips?

p.s. getaway girl missed her flight this morning and is running a little behind schedule. she hopes she'll catch up with you later today.

here are six reasons i should've been born british...

eugenia kim.

i wish i could afford eugenia kim to outfit my head all the time...

suno.

gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. the embroidery detail on the top right dress? loving it.

minoux.

i'm back! i had a few technical difficulties and a little craziness at work, but i've got a whole week of vacation (staycation, that is) ahead of me to get things back in order. i'm predicting a week of fun hats and maybe a special island-bound getaway girl coming friday. hmm... but what island will it be? guess you'll need to stay tuned.

i was excited a few weeks ago when kristen of minoux got in touch with me about participating in a blogger style circle. i'd fallen head over heels for her spring line with its colors and shapes, so i jumped at the chance to know more.

and, not only was i flattered that kristen chose this little ol' greedy girl to be a part, i was humbled by the blog company she included me in. i mean, these bloggers have serious style. a couple were new to me, and a couple more were old favorites.

we all agreed on one necklace — the harmonic mean necklace — or a variation of it, and the inspiration began. i loved the turquoise cord (others chose to go the chain route) so my ideas automatically turned to fun pops of color throughout the outfit:

+ sandals by belle by sigerson morrison
+ dress by parker
+ 'wish you were here' bracelet by kate spade
+ bag by michael stars
+ necklace by minoux

what do you think?

thanks so much to kristen for feeding my greed with gorgeous things (and, especially, for my new gorgeous necklace) and the other girls for taking part and offering their unique takes. check out what you missed on monday, and don't forget to check out the others during the rest of the week.

monday—my style pill and honey kennedy (new favorites)
tuesday—that's me (always a favorite)
wednesday—coco+kelley (old favorite)
thursday—where the lovely things are (new favorite)
friday—apartment 34 and squid (old favorites)

on friday, we'll be doing a tweet-up so follow me here to stay in the loop.
