The last time I wore overalls was in kindergarten, but they were of the OshKosh denim variant, and very likely smeared with chocolate and ice cream stains. I think I prefer these luxe suspender-meets-overall ones a little more. After having worn these in what seems like an infinite number of combinations and looks, they're really one of the easiest things to throw on in moments of indecision. For the poet/artist and gamine look, just pair with the simplest white blouse and ballet flats. For a more obvious contrast between boy and girl, throw a flirty (think swiss dots, pintucks, and pleats, just don't overdo it) shirt on underneath. Who said effortless can't be learned?

This blog now officially powered by La Colombe. Current status: an espresso drip to my bloodstream, and frantically putting this post together before moving onto some projects. Tomorrow, peeps!

One moment it's March 24th and freezing (last post) and the next moment it's April 7th and 70 degrees F. (this post). How on earth did that happen?? Being slammed with work and staring into the depths of Illustrator on a perpetual caffeinated high probably screws with the body's time perception abilities. Regardless, I'm ecstatic for Spring, the lighter layers that come with it, fresh blooms, and more vitamin D. On a more blog-y note, I'll be jumping into some DIYs soon (as time permits), so expect some giveaways and tuts, too. Onward, ho!

Cut-offs are just too easy to wear (ahem, wear every single day of the week). I think they look best when worn with slightly more modest choices (ie a chunky sweater, a collared shirt, nothing too tight or revealing), because there is definitely something haphazard, gritty, and potentially raunchy about a pair of denim cut-offs. I really like how they work with a pair of opaque tights underneath, flats, and something heavier on the top. It's almost my uniform when the days get hectic.
