Horn Combs

My association of hair combs is limited to a pair of red plastic ones I had as a kid. These beautiful horn combs from Rick Owens change all of that. Each one even comes it its own suede case. Decadence of the first degree. (via Simone LeBlanc)

Searching for Shades

The summer after high school graduation I started wearing shades that were way too big for my face, and I’ve never looked back. I started with an oval pair that had tortoise shell frames (very Jackie O.), and made my way through until I landed on my favorite a few years ago. A pair of sunglasses that were black framed, almost square, and cost $5. They broke last December as I walked into an Office Depot to buy a cordless mouse for my aunt. Memories are funny, replacing sunglasses is not. Now that the temps are on the up and up – at least here – I need to find a new pair.

Rain or Shiny Umbrella


I’ve been looking for the perfect bubble umbrella these last few months. I once even bought one, only to take it home and find out it was broken. I like the little extra something this one brings to the table with it’s coppery raindrops.

Rosette Necktie Brooches

I feel in lurve with Nicole Deponte’s Lilian Asterfield collection back when she first inherited a trash bag full of vintage neckties. Each season Nicole creates a new line and I’m all over these rosette necktie brooches. The perfect unisex accessory, it would look just as dapper on the right suit as on a cocktail dress.
