Cloud Watching



Have you ever fallen asleep on a blanket after a picnic at the park? I remember waking up to a bright blue sky filled with puffy white clouds. Then I would start to see funny little animals taking shape and shining through. Cloud watching can be just as fun as star gazing. I love the feeling you get as you feel yourself beginning to slip away from any previous pent up stress you may have had, feeling yourself anew, just by watching the shapes take form.

Thank you "S-C" of Girl Meets NYC for the 6 quirks about you tag. I tag anyone interested!! :)

Let's see. OK. Well, for starters.... (1) I cannot feel "awake" until I actually put my contacts on. When I am wearing my glasses I still feel half asleep. Maybe it's the cold water that "wakes" me up? (2) I love ovaltine with milk for breakfast but it has to be just the right amount of milk and ovaltine, it can't be too milky or too chocolate-y, I have it down to a science. (3) I always need some kind of pillow to hug in order to fall asleep at night. I'm very picky about there not being any light either, when trying to fall asleep (or noise!) (4) I don't like walking into my room or the bathroom with shoes on. I think of germs coming off of the street. Ew. (5) I drink coffee, even at home, with a straw. (6) I always count steps when I climb, it's an odd habit.

ashley obsession: sheer tees + tanks

Body con Stars!


Hey guys. Here's a little body con dress I found while shopping in my closet yet again. It's from 5.7.9. The wedges are Old Navy, and my handbag is Vintage. All jewelry is from The Icing, vintage or Forever 21. Headband from Target. Still feeling a little under the weather. :/ Hoping this outfit post cheers up a rather blue Monday...

Infinite X's and O's!

A Reflection of Love


Feeling down today, it seems as if I have come down with a terrible head cold, almost flu-like in symptoms and right in the middle of our moving, too. I hate change. I don't do well with it. I'm weird that way. But I did manage to take plenty of "outfit" photo shoots in our old place, just in case, to tide me over. It may take me a while to get unpacked and settled here. But I will take your requests on any "Fall Outfit" ideas you may want to see me try out in the blog sometime in the near future. :) For now, I hope you enjoy this collage. Your comments do have a wonderful way of cheering me up! ♥

This collage incorporates everything from the 90's grunge look to the ultra feminine floral motif look of today. Balmain, Audrey Hepburn, Tallulah Morton, a touch of street chic. What's your pleasure?

L'ecole girl




Visions of school girl uniform skirts, sweet satin bows, and precariously tall wedges help to move me into an autumnal mode. Apples, bluebirds and the casual cool evening breeze top off my train of thought. When it comes to short skirts, why not take the Parisian route? Monochromatic schemes sit alright with me. So, if you're beginning to feel overwhelmed by homework overtaking your desk and textbooks piled high, then the next time you crack open a book, try whistling while you work. ;)

...like the Deserts miss the Rain

Julia Stegner was first discovered for her fresh faced beauty at 14 years old. Now at 24 years of age, this German model personifies grace, style and great composure under pressure. She has gone on to appear in ad campaigns for the covetable Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce & Gabbana, ChloƩ, and Valentino. She manages to secure a spot in the Victorias Secret catwalk show that airs every year during the Holidays. Known by her friends and family as being sort of a tomboy, for her love of playing basketball in high school, she also enjoys the aspect of getting all dolled up for work. I, for one, deem Julia to be a very striking and enchanting model.

Why So Serious?




Last weekend I met up with some of my family for a game of Bowling, hence the 1950's themed outfit and then Chinese for lunch! I managed to achieve 3 strikes in a row, right at the start of the game. Unfortunately, after that, I lost my "mojo" and my younger brother won the whole thing. For lunch I ordered my usual honey garlic chicken and steamed white rice. This place is the best "little hole in the wall" $6.50 for a lunch plate that also includes an appetizer and a bowl of soup. I go for the Crab Rangoons (a delectable treat of crab meat and cream cheese in what looks to be a fried wonton shell) every time. I eventually grew tired of the Wonton soup, so now I always opt for the egg drop. If you ask for it, they bring you their famous Oolong tea in the cutest little tea set. I love the stuff! Dessert is a fortune cookie, of course.

...a few Marvelous cravings!


From patent to studs to even suede fringe, my heart yearns for it all in black as night. I love the chic advantage one can achieve by simply dressing in black, head to toe. As effortless as painting your nails in the vamp shade to even dressing up your feet with dark patent, black is here to stay; day or night. Above is a Polyvore set of some of my current desires in this particular hue. Now if only I could have each and every single one of them..

Solestruck in my knee socks!





Grey matters. The progression of my moving has brought forth a few items I had mistakenly forgotten about within the dark depths of my closet. I came across this part mini, part body con sweater dress as I was readying myself for the move. I instantly knew I had to pair it with the gorgeous platforms that Danielle from Solestruck so lovingly sent my way. And just in time for my Birthday last week, too. Thank you!! I love them. Their supple leather and intricate design are integral and thus there is something special to be said as I cannot stop my fawning over them. Particularly comfortable, given their awesome height, they complemented the dress perfectly. My shrunken cardigan is actually one of my most prized possessions, belonging to my Mom (when she was a baby!) The knee socks? Juicy Couture.

I'll let you be in my Dream, if I can be in yours...

I dream of fanciful characters, disguises and bright pops of pink. A place where bicycles, ballgowns and berets take center stage. RVCA- by Erin Wasson, showcasing their bleached and distressed denim. Anja Rubik prancing down the runway in yellow. All- making my heart sing. Valentine Fillol-Cordier flitting about in a marshmallow frothy white frock concludes this dream sequence.

They say it's my Birthday!






After much contemplation over which Restaurant I wanted to go to for my Birthday dinner, we all ended up at this quaint little Bistro downtown. They specialized in all things Pasta, seafood and French cuisine! I dined amongst my friends and family on homemade Raviolis stuffed with a creamy blend of sun dried tomato, basil and goat cheese all set atop a bed of baby arugla. The sweetest part? They were drizzled with a delectably rich walnut sauce. Yum. I also had a side of steamed spinach marinated in a buttery pepper sauce. The bread they served at the beginning came with this amazing balsamic vinegar and olive oil mix garnished with oregano and parsley. I almost ate the bread and sauce all by myself! It was just that good. For dessert, we came home and had bite size brownie cupcakes and vanilla cake. I got gift cards (for books & clothes) earrings, some money and a few movies. All in all it was a pretty great 26th Birthday. The only thing missing?? ALL OF YOU. Wish you were there. Your warmest wishes, celebratory comments and love, all mean so much. Thank you! You're all in my heart, at all times. xo/ fashion chalet!!
