Confessions of a Fashion Fanatic: Things I'm Lovin' Today.

Confessions of a Fashion Fanatic

The daily chronicle of a fashion-and-beauty obsessed, style-writing, pseudo-Angeleno who made her way from the Great White North to La-La Land -- otherwise known as Los Angeles, California -- and back again. Till the next big city calls out her name, that is.

: Name: Haute Hippie; Location: Everywhere and anywhere

I'm a Vancouverite who moonlighted as an Angeleno. My momma is the best in the entire world, and I'll argue you hoarse on that one. I've been in love only once in my life. The East Coast calls me but the West Coast is in my blood. Social butterflies -- and party animals -- are a great species. Fashion and writing will be the death of me, but what a way to go. Carine Roitfeld is fabulous. I would die a painful death if art, design, photography, fashion, music and dancing did not exist. Always kind of wondered why Smurfette was the only girl in town. I can't draw. Absolutely believe everything happens for a reason. I feel so lucky to have the girlfriends that I do. I'm a total sun baby. Think I might be a workaholic. I may have slight road rage. Ice cream and hockey are religions. I buy too many glossy magazines. Nothing beats someone with a killer sense of humor. Chivalry is really not dead. I'm a victim of minor vertigo and a serious lead foot. Always up for meeting people from paths different than mine and crossing paths with old friends. At the very end of it all, I want to be able to look back and say: Yeah, I sure lived a damn good life.

Things I'm Lovin' Today.

Oh, Thursdays.

Such a good day to list things that have made me grin today!

OMIGOD. Gimme, gimme, gimme these Givenchy heels I spotted today.

My buddy Russe, who brought me a ginarmous birthday cupcake when we met for lunch at our favorite Thai place today. Thanks, buds! I swear, you eat so much during your birthday week. Certainly I have, anyway.

Aims bought two House of Harlow 1960 pieces at the luxe department store downtown yesterday night. Holy smokes. I want to wear this HoH Gold Seven Strand Headband for my birthday festivities this weekend. Badly.

These works spotted on Wooster Collective by Leon "Tes One" Bedore, who has done work for the likes of MTV, Red Bull, Absolut Vodka, Nokia, Scion and Barack Obama.

Genius on iTunes. Don't know how I lived without it before. The playlists it makes me from my music library helps me discover songs I forgot I had. To see what musical roster Genius put together from me choosing "Planet Health" by Chairlift, click the image below to enlarge!
