Yesterday, the girlfriend & I ventured over to the West Village for an event celebrating Yoga for Wii. After much clambering around cobblestones, baffled glances at Google Maps & confused phonecalls, we found the location & began our ascent to the 13th floor.

It was worth it. Look at those windows! I want windows like this. Beautiful.

I was wearing…

A knit hat from Forever 21 — I bought it on a whim sometime this year, it was about $3, & I’m so glad I did! I wear it all the time, especially when I am having a bad hair day, or for dressing down a more fancy outfit.
Royal blue Swarovski crystal heart necklace. It is my favourite right now.
American Apparel racerback tank dress worn tucked into my skirt, & I just noticed that there is a quote from me on that product page, HA!
Satin lapel blazer from Urban Outfitters. I can’t find it on their site but it’s by Silence & Noise.
Belted petal skirt from Forever 21. Perfect length, totally cute & it makes me feel like I just came crashing out of the jungle or something similarly Wild Things-esque.
Socks from Urban Outfitters. I thought they were just ankle socks, but they actually come up to my knees. Yay! Even better, they were 3 for $20. I also picked up purple & NEON (& I mean neon) pink.
Report Masonic studded stilettos from Solestruck.com.
The “Cher” bag from Forever 21 (shoop shoop).
Assorted bracelets from Forever 21 & Girlprops.

I am totally going through a blue phase. Also, please note how much my style has changed in the last year or so! I said in Love & Sequins #6 that the best style evolves & I believe that very strongly, so at least I am practising what I preach!

The view was amazing. We were staring right at this crazy pink building (Palazzo Chupi) owned by Julian Schnabel which reminds me of an Indian palace. (More on Palazzo Chupi here & here! It is fascinating.) You can see it behind me in the first two photos. Also: free vodka.

Later I hobbled around the West Village in Chloe’s stinky Chuck Taylors, introduced her to fish & chips & fake-argued with a British man who insisted on saying I was Australian, but that’s a story for another time.
