Girls, lets talk Gossip.

Girl, that is.  Gossip Girl.  More specifically, Taylor Momsen.  What a foxy little minx.  Seriously.  Ramons t-shirt wearing, self proclaim darker-than-you-think, attitude city, rock star.
Rumors are that Taylor is leaving Gossip Girl (oh no!) to concentrate on her band, The Pretty Reckless, which is sooooo worth a listen.  And then another.

Exhale

So I'm a scardy cat.  It's true.  I don't like scary movies.  They scare me TOO much.  The scariest I venture is Criminal Minds.  Very scary. 
Watching this in the middle of the day, sitting at my desk, lights on, people around, just enough volume
= me not scared.  
I'm probably not going to test it at home, alone, in the dark, and volume pumped.  
I'm a wuss, it's true.

OK Go

This is a super neat watch.  And the band is good too!

Olsen fever!

Guilty! I love the MKA duo.  Shame on me? No.  Like it or not, they are fashion icons.  With their celebrated line The Row, Elizabeth & James, and now Olsenboy (for JC Penny), they are surely covering all the markets!  I love them, and I'm not ashamed to say it.

Dear Ashley,
What's with the yellow sweater?
Your friend,
Julie.

A Thing for Bathtubs

I've got a thing for bathtubs.  Don't know why.  I don't even like to take baths all that much.  I'm more of a shower girl.  But I LOVE them for photo shoots and general chilling.  Love.  The blacker-and-whiter the better.

Must-go-to-New-York-to-shop-Uniqlo

I discovered Uniqlo years ago via a catalogue that landed on my desk.  And then for some reason completely forgot about it!  It reminds me of Muji. They are both Japanese and fabulous.  Makes me want to buy lots of borderline useless items and pose for photos on the street giving a peace sign and standing slightly pigeon-toed.  Hello cliché!  Yay Chloé

I L♥VE Garence Doré

Oh me, Oh my, I too have participated.

So everyone in the exciting world of blogging is following suit to The Sartorialist's vintage photo contest by posting pictures of their predecessors.  I, also, am following the masses, here are my parents.  They were taken some time in the early 80's at the country house where I grew up.
