This is my roommate, Cesare. He loves to steal my jewelry! Today he's wearing a vintage beaded collar from the 1920s and a Brazilian agate necklace designed by Paula Mendoza. Collar, Vintage; Necklace, Paula Mendoza

This little accessory shrine is my last stop in getting ready every day; it's where all the final details are selected.

I bought this brass figurine from Brimfield flea market, and I put my rings on it every night before I fall asleep. The swallow cuff is from a little shop in Paris and the vintage red spider brooch is one of my favorites. His wonky little eyes always make me smile. Brooch, Vintage

This ring came with a perfectly-matching blue nail polish. Genius! Ring, Delfina Delettrez

I'm crazy for this leather-collared frock. Dress, Kimberly Taylor; Shoes, Corello; Necklace, Kelly Framel

These butterfly sunnies are admittedly a bit much for everyday wear, but I couldn't resist adding them to my collection! Fiona here wears them more beautifully than I ever could. Sunglasses, Vintage

This coat has such a history! I ordered it from a vintage shop in Pittsburgh after spying but not buying it on a trip to visit my grandparents. I replaced the lining with this floral print from Oscar de la Renta, then added the vintage fur collar from eBay. The beaded cuffs were originally a belt from India—they were the final touch in the coat's transformation. Coat, Vintage and personalized by The Glamourai herself!

Brooch, Vintage

I grew up playing with rubber mice instead of Barbies, and no, I cannot explain why. These days, I collect little gold versions instead; this belt came from eBay, my best source for vintage brass trinkets. Belt, Vintage

These three pictures are different artists' renditions of me: the top is by Garance Doré for Glamour magazine, the bottom left is by Shoji Van Kuzumi for Stylecaster, and the bottom right is the glamour-monster inside me, as painted by my friend Kim Swift. Top, Elizabeth & James

I love this shot! These shoes are crazy comfortable. The hog jaw comes courtesy of one of my father's hunting expeditions. He sent it to me in what was undoubtedly the weirdest FedEx delivery I've ever received. Shoes, Miu Miu; Necklace, Monserat de Lucca

These sunnies pinch my face, yet I still wear them to death. They are so special! The hexagonal, beaded box clutch was a steal at the Angel Street Thrift Shop on 17th Street. Sunglasses, Vintage Yves Saint Laurent

This top was a hand-me-down from my manager, Karen. She has the most insane closet and I trade styling advice in exchange for first dibs on her discards! Top, Jean-Paul Gaultier; Collar, Coach; Necklace, Kelly Framel

Primary is a line of chic basics designed by my friend Cleo Schroeder. She recently stole the dress from me, and I can't remember who designed it! It's vintage and was once long and frumpy; I gave it a drastic hemming. The spider brooch is the queen mother of my extensive collection of insect jewelry. Dress and Brooch, Vintage; Clutches, Primary

I plan to wear this hunter green bag every day this fall; I recently shot a campaign for Corello. The vintage chevron mink was actually ordered online by a former assistant. When it arrived, she decided it was too much for her, so I happily bought if off her on the spot! Bag, Corello; Coat, Vintage; Shoes, Rachel Roy x Katrina Petroni

This vintage tea dress is from Feathers, a must-visit boutique in Austin, Texas. I've never walked out of that store empty-handed! All, Vintage

Like most New Yorkers, my closet is way too small, so I'm forced to constantly rotate my clothes. The benefit is that it forces me to regularly re-assess what I should and shouldn't hold on to. My favorite silk nightshirt hangs on the door.

I made this necklace from an oversized Christmas ornament, reinventing it with a thick coat of black lacquer and a 1920s celluloid chain. I'm anticipating that these boots will be my favorite come fall. I'm late to the world of Wang worship, but I'm catching up quickly. His shoes really are the best. Shoes, Alexander Wang; Necklace, Kelly Framel

I don't know why I collect miniature insects and rodents so fervently, because in real life I detest them both. The vintage Gucci purse was a lucky find from a small spot in Greenpoint. Bag, Vintage Gucci

My desktop inspiration board!

These sequin Manolo Blahniks were a 25th birthday present to myself. That was the same birthday that my friends dubbed me "The Glamourai" and my blog was born! Obviously, it was a special one. Shoes, Manolo Blahnik
