THE GHOSTS

Check out The Ghosts, a short film made by my friend Eddie O'Keefe with music by members of Gold Motel! The visuals and music are fantastic. I totally want a leather motorcycle 'Ghosts' jacket now!

You Know Her Life was Saved by Rock N Roll

Been searching for this shaggy yarn coat for almost 2 years and finally found another one online! Such an amazing piece. I wish I knew the year of it. Early 70's?

1960's Parisian Chic

I wore this over the weekend to a family member’s wedding. The dress was a thrift find- only $5! Originally it was a maxi dress, but I shortened it to a mini for a more ’1960’s teenage bubblegum’ vibe. 

The strangest part about this dress is inside the label says ‘Fashioned by Betty D.’ Last season on Mad Men, Betty Draper (played by January Jones) wore an identical dress while pregnant! So cool!

This outfit makes me feel like I should be in the Miss Dior Cherie campaigns! All I need are a bunch of balloons! :)

It's Summertime




This is my favorite summertime dress! Ever since I was 15, I've always wanted a lace dress that reminded me of Cecila Lisbon from Virgin Suicides. This is the closest I've found to a summer lace dress. I love the patches- there is a butterfly and a psychedelic 'love' patch. I like these Minnetonka boots a lot but I never find anything to wear them with...Any suggestions?

Secret Colours

My friends are in the band Secret Colours and I was asked to be the model for their debut album cover. It was so exciting because I got to design the fabric and actually make the dress from a vintage pattern. The pattern of the dress is inspired by the psychedelic movement of the 1960’s. It’s so badass!


Their album is currently streaming online!

If you live in the Chicago-Area, you can catch Secret Colours with Gold Motel on June 11th at Lincoln Hall!
