comfort is the boss

its been a while since i last put on a pair of jeans, for so many reasons:
a. its too hot
b. i decided i'm much more comfortable in leggings,velour pants,etc.
c. not fun to experiment with.
today, i slipped on a pair of jeans and couldn't bear keeping them on! The thing is, once you stop wearing them, its hard to switch back.
My number one alternative now is loose fitting cotton pants that feel like smart pyjamas.


With pants like that i could walk around forever. Do tell if you know where theyre found.

A twist to the norm, a sheepish magazine rack.
Suitable for a quirky marc jacobs style office.

surprise surprise B

Last night we got together for a casual/surprise mini pool party for my sister B.
I set the table up with a fresh tea green colored cover, with edges i had cut in a half-circular pattern. I attached loose bows around the ends.
I scattered tea lite candles around the pool, dug up the coasters i got at Soho NYC two years ago and enjoyed the outdoor heat for a couple of hours.
Recommended if you've spent tooo much time indoors and need to get some fresh air.
I realize i've neglected my blog for sooo long, i actually missed it. xoxo

jackie O's le chambre bleu

We now know the secret of her stardom and fame, it all starts at the most inspiring powder room. From the crisp white carpet to the black and white gold framed photos and the most divine blue chaise ever i heart this room to bits.

To more inspiring powder rooms.

for those of you who went through the trollies sing-along phase, you would understand! Its so strange how i have vague memories of my childhood, but once i play this song i remember how me and my sisters used to glue ourselves to the couch and watch this,during the troll collection era.
