LOOK

I love this look. From the glamourai.

SPECIMEN

I love these necklaces, designed by Carrie Yee of Specimen Jewelry (I'm the proud owner of the bottom one!). A perfect blend of organic, glam, and tough. Check out her Etsy shop and website.

YES

The best moment of the Oscars last night. "YES!"

STUDIO

I love the section on ArtInfo's website called "In the Studio". Artists work so differently and seeing their studios always provides an interesting perspective on the finished product.

STEICHEN

This weekend I went to see the Edward Steichen exhibition at the International Center of Photography. It's a collection of the celebrity portraiture and fashion photography done by Steichen for Condé Nast, mainly Vogue and Vanity Fair. Beautiful, very modern and definitely worth a visit.
