IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY NOW ITS MY BIRTHDAY MONTH. YEAH!

i once made a new friend about a week after my birthday and he was irritated he missed it and therefore declared the entire month of may to be my birthday month so that we can celebrate for all of may. i immediately adopted this mentality and hence, may! my birthday month! plus may is beautiful and several of my best friends also find themselves partaking in the may birthdays so lets just celebrate may!
on my actual birthday, the 7th, tobi kate david and i had a delightful dinner including a sweet japanese polaroid camera i forgot i had resulting in a 'polaroid plate'.

the birthday girl. ive got a way with bathrooms.

the polaroid plate. my three favorite people.

my birthday deer. they say thank you.

merci!

BOWS AND ARROWS AND LSD

so i have decided the theme of my summer wardrobe is PSYCHEDELIC SUMMER CAMP. the inspiration came in the form of these amazing current elliott jeans-
incredible pattern as well as color palette. i immediately was reminded of the feathered end of an arrow, coincidentally the actual name is 'multi arrow'. so this is where the idea grew from and now my summer wardrobe is to be filled with yellows, oranges, tan, cobalt blues and stark whites. lots of straight fitted button down shirts, linen shorts, moccasins, boy scout patches, ponies, glasses galore, secret handshakes and stationery. i want to take a new look at the simplicity of a summer camp wardrobe and exacerbate the color and pattern while keeping the minimal lines. lets do it! 

making the outfit work.

i want one.


aqua arrows.

lets start collecting.

this pretty much sums it up.

any other ideas on what constitutes PSC are welcome. lets crazy this summer up! 
more to come shortly.
stay sweet,
