synthetic hair bows from h&m ($4.95 a bow, hello?), plus a wimbledon boater by albertus swanepoel (legend), and two vintage prada turbans (channeling simone de beauvoir). does it get any better than this? booya!

some sunday-love for one of my favorite ladies of the east coast: famed art heroine claw money and her latest collaborative label of choice, vans. it takes a special kind of woman to carry a black sneaker on the streets during sweltering temperatures but this summer i’m tempted to try my luck…especially with these fancy aqua laces! can’t you just picture them on the sand or along the boardwalk after a quick dip in the waters of malibu or miami? computer says YES!!

two dames with a whole lotta spunk goin’ on.
