reckless daydreaming

As soon as I caught wind that Miss Quincy had started designing/constructing her own clothing I knew I would want to own something.  Once I actually laid eyes on Q's Daydream Handmade it was very hard to pick just one thing. But this Gamine Seersucker Playsuit... I was in love! Since it arrived in the post I've been wearing it at every chance so i thought it only fair that I share it with you (bare midriff and all ;) It is perfect for this balmy weather.

 

(this one is a bit blurry but Charlie's facial expression kills me so I had to post it)

musical notes: I don't think I've posted this pretty video here - this was sort of my spring theme.

PS: true to form, I will be adding a couple of things to my West Hollywood post that I forgot to include!

If you've got leavin on your mind...

Taking a quick break from the "tour posts" overload,  I wanted to share this lovely Spring 2012 Lookbook for Boy. by Band of Outsiders Spring 2012 starring Michelle Williams.  I always love their lookbooks but this time I think the clothing is absolute perfection too. Plus these photos were taken at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery - I love a little nod to old LA.

musical notes: Sadly, this is the best version of this incredible Patsy Cline cover done by the (lovely) Secret Sisters... I was spoiled to see it live several nights in a row and it's been in my head ever since. "Leavin On Your Mind"
