Rock Crush



I have a slight obsession for rock heiresses. I'm not sure if it's the uniform messy hair, smudgy eyeliner, and laid back attitude, or the thought of having a rocker Father and supermodel Mother that intrigues me. Either way I am always under the assumption that each rock heiress must live the most hedonistic life. Vacationing in the bohemian parts of Ibiza, residing in oversized Lower Eastside lofts with excessive amounts of closet space, and of course partying into the early hours at each Capitol's most exclusive parties. My favorites include Lizzy and Georgia Jagger, Theodora and Alexandra Richards, but my all time rock daughter muse has to be Zoe Kravitz. Born from the beautiful Lisa Bonet and rock legend Lenny Kravitz, Zoe oozes the perfect combination of urban New York and 1960's hippie. She styles with a careless abandonment that every girl should possess. You are never sure if each ensemble is a result of playing "dress-up" out of an antique trunk or picked straight off the hottest catwalks. She has stated that her mum, dad, and herself live in Rick Owens tanks and her favorite designers are Chloe, Chanel, and Stella McCartney. A girl after my own heart!

In the Morning...



She sleeps upon a bed of snow white Egyptian cotton. She awakes to the smell of a foamy cappuccino. Her clothes are strewn across the room in a haphazard manner. Over the bed post, piled on the floor, clusters of floral chiffon, worn denim, shiny leggings, quilted handbags, and buttersoft ankle boots. She makes her way down the stairs in a tri-blend American Apparel tank and cashmere ballet slippers, her long, thick hair twisted into a loose messy bun. Her Macbook finds its way into her lap, while she consumes a generous cappuccino and absorbs her favorite fashion blogs. After her usual morning routine she settles upon an outfit, today something cozy. An over sized flannel shirt, torn denim mini, opaque tights, and her most comfortable pair of ankle boots. She stuffs all her necessities into a well worn Chloe Paddington before embarking on a day of coffee and shop hopping.
