Just a small amount of Fall 08 collections I'm digging...

I'm digging grungy masculine inspired looks:

Alexander Wang




But at the same time, I'll always go for some girlier looks too (in fall fabrics/colors):

BCBG Max Azaria

Off to Vacation

I'll miss posting, but hopefully I'll have some pics to post (fashionable or not) when I return!

Before I go, I wandered into the Gap the other day and this beauty greeted me:


I was mostly deterred by the $64 dollar price tag, and the length is a little iffy (I'm a pretty petite 5'2" so this would probably hit below the knee..

There is a skirt too, but I didnt think it was as cute:

Anyways, a few pics of inspiration while I'm gone...

Packing...

So this weekend I'm going on vacation, and while I don't have beautiful vintage suitcases like these to pack with (although I Wish I did) I'm still having a packing dilemma.

My vacation will be 2 days in Portland hanging with the boy and his friends. I'm think I want mostly casual stuff, but possible a few looks that can be transformed into "night" looks too. And then we are spending 2 weeks at his families beach house. So a swimsuit and some light clothing.

Any suggestions?/Ideas?/Advice? I'll post a list once I make one (Its my goal for work today, I think, to work on this list.)

If only my AA dress would get here before then! (I doubt it, I've heard AA is notoriously slow to ship)

You can get away with shorter hemlines when its hot, right?

What I'm wearing to go grab some food and maybe wander around shopping. We'll see where the day takes me...

Dress: Express

Sandals: Ross

Flower: Wal-mart craft section. I popped the flower off, put it on a bobby pin.

Is this too short? I'm comforted by the fact its longer than my shorts...so it should be fine, yes?
