I consider myself more a shoe collector than wearer. I’ve spent close to every dollar I’ve ever made on shoes. My mom once told me to always invest in shoes and handbags and that I could improvise the rest with meagre means. I bet now she regrets giving me that advice. Funny how much a girl will spend on accessories that are meant to drag across dirty sidewalks. All, Various Designers

I am pretty anal about keeping everything in this part of my closet color coded. It makes fishing easier and speaks volumes to my monochromatic way o’living. All, Various Designers

I scored [this gown] at a sample sale for $600! It was slashed down from $5,000. There’s only one runway sample, it never went into production and happens to be the actual dress Serena wore on an episode of Gossip Girl a few seasons ago. If you think this is good, you should see what my mama scored. I’m talking white fur cape. Dress, J. Mendel

The dress is BB Dakota. Doesn’t it look Miu Miu? It was $90. Dress, BB Dakota; Shoes, Julian Louie x Aldo

Don’t even get me started on my gilded patio foot furniture. I’m really into thematic dressing. Shoes, Proenza Schouler

Matthew Williamson for H&M win. It’s great with denim cut offs. The skirt is really high maintenance but just so…dreamy. Yeah, I’d procreate with it. Top, Matthew Williamson x H&M; Skirt, Rag & Bone

This is a velour moto vest by one of my best friend’s lines. It’s like Juicy Couture and Balenciaga have this really drunken night together and procreate and this is what comes out of it. It’s great over a little pouffy white dress. I scored the shoes half off; it was Margielove at first friggin sight. Vest, Kimberly Taylor; Shoes, Maison Martin Margiela; Necklace, J. Crew

My mom had my first shoes framed, which is a shame because I could likely still fit into them. The outer layer, those firetruck-inspired CHANEL are a pretty good indication of that. Do note my 5th Grade poetry. It says shit inside of it like, “poetry changed my life.” I haven’t written a poem since 5th grade. Shoes, CHANEL

I was an intern at Valentino for three years. One time, I had to sharpen 500 pencils. That may not sound like a lot but it took three days, shit tons of finger blisters and white dresses ruined by led. In the final stretch, after having been moved by various employees because the sharperner noise was so irritating, I was sitting on the closet floor, sharpening away when my boss flipped her lid on me. The gowns were grazing against some pencil shavings. The horror! The horror! Anyway, this bag was gifted after I worked with them and ELLE on an accessories story. Be nice to your interns, people. You never know when you might need them again. All, Valentino

Crochet lace x sequins. The fabrics complement each other surprisingly well. Top, Anarchy Street; Shorts, Dallin Chase; Shoes, Valentino

This photo was sketched by Dallas Shaw in part of a Shopbop wishlist insider feature I did over Christmas/Hanukah. They sent it over to me as a gift, it was one of the first really exciting collaborations I did. Jacket, Gryphon; Necklaces, Fenton/Fallon, Giles & Brother

Both of these pieces were stolen straight my mama’s closet. The belt is a total game changer and the skirt is so sailor chic. Funny thing about this here sailor is that there ain’t no fish in my sea. Ba da ba, chhhh! All, CHANEL

This is a genuine leopard fur coat that belonged to my great grandmother. She just recently passed away, God bless her. And her wardrobe. The little Amish slice of heaven underneath is a super 70's Tory Burch dress that I wore for a mother’s day campaign that ran on their site a couple of weeks ago. Jacket, Vintage from Great Grandmother; Dress, Tory Burch; Shoes, Julian Louie x Aldo

This is the rad-ass jacket I scored during THE OUTNET’s $2 sale. I think real tears were streaming down my face while clicking buy. It retailed for $6,000. It was a perfect compliment for my little Mexican love machines- those Stubbs and Wootton loafers. The yellow catches those highly coveted—see what I did just there?—maracas. I’m basically the celibate version of Hugh Hefner. Jacket, Valentino; Shoes, Del Toro, Stubbs and Wootton

One of the best Balenciaga prints to date. I demand a reissue. And as I always say, leopard print is a neutral. This outfit is a no brainer (or weener.) Dress, Balenciaga; Shoes, Miu Miu

My birth control glasses look way better on this statue than they do on my face and for the record, the other man’s ankle monitor totally shits on Lindsay Lohan’s. Come on, baby alligator skin! Glasses, Warby Parker; Bracelet, Hermès

The M.R. essentials: A snow leopard jacket, a great bow tie (picked out by my daddio) and some printed shoes. I need neon laces. Jacket, 3.1 Phillip Lim; Shoes, Tibi; Bowtie, Dolce & Gabbana

This bag is my mom’s. I was super amped about my Proenza dress but she usurped my throne quickly with this baby. Not for anything, it does compliment my pillows real well…sorry, ma! It’s found a new home. Bag, Hermès

Ah, the official blogger ring. I bought my arty oval when I was abroad in Paris last fall. Before I was a blogger. One time, at a Passion Pit concert I smacked myself in the face with it. This is also the framed page from my Lucky Magazine spread.Don’t I look like the Mediterranean version of Ellen DeGeneres? Got to love a crisp white suit. Ring, Yves Saint Laurent

This ostrich skin clutch was my grandmothers. She gave it to me right before I went abroad to Paris. I threw up in it once while I was there. It was the last time I drank Rosé and white wine together. But there’s something to be said about its durability, eh? If you’re reading this, grandma, I’m sorry. Clutch, Hermès; Necklace, Dannijo

I saw these shoes on Aldo’s PR superstar during fashion week and essentially pried them off of her feet. They're color block, they’re fur, they're tassle... they rock. So many trends on one shoe, and at an affordable price. This is probably one of my favorite designer collaborations. Aldo has a few pretty fly tricks up their sleeve. Shoes, Julian Louie x Aldo

This dress heats my loins. I bought it for myself in honor of my blog’s first birthday last month. I know what you’re wondering and yes I had it gift wrapped. I think I’ll wear it everyday, if only for the sake of an authentic neon-a-thon. It’s not just a dress. It’s wearable art. Dress, Proenza Schouler

This collar is probably the best thing that’s happened to my neck since thyroids. It’s calf hair and adorned by bullets which is good in case I’m looking to kill you. The necklace is dainty and cute, like me. Just kidding. But really, Dannijo is easily my favorite jewelry brand. It’s like each individual piece is sprinkled with love and lady boners. Lots o’boners. Collar, Eleven Objects; Necklace, Dannijo
