Quote of the Day: Anais Nin

"For you and for me, the highest moment, the keenest moment is not when our minds dominate but when we lose our mind- and you and I both lose it the same way, by love"
Anais Nin in a letter to Henry Miller. Feb. 22, 1932

Feeling intimate...

When did Forever 21 get such cute intimates?I know, I know...Forever 21. Knockoffs. Labor conditions. Terrible quality. And, at 30 years old, am I too old for Forever 21?
Well, I just can't give it up. I am a bargain shopper by nature. I am also obsessed with intimates, and in that category I LOVE floral and eyelet and anything retro fitting. So... I have completely fallen in love with these pieces. I can't wait to go out and buy some more!

Ahh...Love Story. HUGE inspiration for the Fall/ Winter collection of Every Little Counts. There is no other movie that portrays fall and winter so stylishly as "Love Story".

With Steve McQueen...Ah!

LOVE this sweater!

Steve McQueen is "The King of Cool"

With first husband, Robert Evans

Etsy Love: SUPAYANA

I love the men's button down. I love it as is, crawling out of bed with nothing else on, a la Brigitte Bardot. I also love when it is translated into something completely feminine, like this tunic by Supayana. The top above is available now on Etsy for $60. Each piece is one of a kind, and made from vintage materials. Act now, as these pieces are selling out quicker than I can buy!

Inspired by the graphics from Claude Chabrol's 1969 film, "La Femme Infidele":

Romantic girls love to love. We daydream, we collect memories, we love all things French...

I absolutely love this high- waisted skirt by Natalie Low. This re-worked skirt is made from a men's button-down shirt...why didn't I think of that?
$34 on Etsy

We love Calico!

I am feeling much better after receiving this pic from our favorite east coast store, Calico.

I miss the rain...

It has been quite awhile since I have written. Adam and I have been very very busy working on new styles for Every Little Counts. More to come on that...

For now, tonight, I am feeling a little sad and nostalgic. It is a strange night- quiet and a little eerie. It feels like fall is coming, and it may be for some but it is definitely not true for us in LA. There is definitely at least 3 more months of dry miserable heat ahead of us. So, with that, I am missing the east coast. I specifically miss Massachusetts- quiet nights, stars, rain...I really, truly, honestly miss the rain. If only it would rain...

One summer night last July while visiting home in Massachusetts.
