i've long been a grey gardens mega-fan, so there was no way i could let this latest edie beale-inspired editorial slide by without a post. especially with halloween coming up!! since my favorite of all holidays falls on a weekend this year, i'm brainstorming different costumes for friday, saturday and sunday. maybe little edie will be among them? at the very least, i think she'd appreciate my way around a headwrap.

PS: if by some twisted tragedy you still haven't seen the original documentary, click HERE immediately to watch it on hulu (the 'beales of grey gardens' follow-up feature is pretty major as well). enjoy!!

PPS: what are you planning to be for halloween? and am i the only one who anticipates assuming several guises over the course of the coming weekend?!

{ strike a vogue }

i don't usually get all gushy over american vogue, but this month's 'society slouch' story is just so, so perfect. i had to share my favorite photos!

after years of sticking to skirts and dresses, i'm loving the look of long, lean trousers this fall (i awkwardly alluded to this in my F21 video). also looking forward to: crisp white shirts, clever doses of color, more minimalist iterations of statement jewelry (including armfuls of super-sleek bangles!), and doll-face makeup. ooh, and i'm dizzily dreaming about the most perfect embellished jacket on earth (lanvin, below):

actually, i think everything about the above look is divine. combine polka-dots and feathery embroidery with 1970's swagger and 1920's undertones, and i am ALL IN!!

what's more, i've recently decided to start growing my hair back out, which is always agonizing, unattractive, and just plain uncomfotable! so i'm taking notes on the chicest chapeau options ~ and you know i totally adore the updated edie beale-esque scarf wrap below:
