Over the years the braid has gone in and out of style. Thanks to our fabulous fashion leader Lauren Conrad the braid is more popular then ever. I think it's such a sweet and sophisticated look that goes about with really not too much effort.

Folds Make a Shirt
I loved this shirt by Kistowski. I wonder what it would feel like. The whole effect is so surreal. Theres perfect dimension and perfect shape but the whole thing is so soft and durable.

Personal Style- Just too cool
This is just what some of the cool kids were wearing at the Lollapalooza 09 show. I love the mix of tuts and cool boots. It's really so sweet looking but has such a rough edge to it. There's a sense of diversity but the looks stay consistently cool. I love the cool kids vibe I get. Rouged style that is thrown together in a "just don't care" way.

Vintage Shopping at Portebellow Market
When I was in England we went to this store strip which had so many amazing vintage shops. This store in particular had some amazing gems. Quite literally every piece was some vintage celeb wear from years back. I loved the atmosphere here. All the houses were painted in the cutest pastels it was like a real life PleasentVille with some added amazing stores.
