Through the Looking Glass Vintage

You know how boys like to divide pretty girls into two categories, The Girl Next Door a.k.a. "MaryAnn" or The Glamorous Model/Starlet a.k.a. "Ginger"? Well, they do. I hang out with a lot of boys. BOYS! BE JEALOUS. This is my girl next door:

It's Kathleen, the Fashion Queen and she's taking over Austin with her beautiful projects. She and partner in crime Maggie have just launched an online vintage store, Through the Looking Glass Vintage with fresh handpicked treasures every week and styled to perfection by the clothes mavens themselves.

So, if you have ever wished that you had a gorgeous fashion model with impeccable taste and a master's degree in psychology to personally pick your clothes, take a picture of how to accessorize them, then send them to you in the mail...well, you're welcome.

As if this weren't enough, she's the manager of one of the hippest coffee houses in town and continues to baffle the more testosterone-fueled musicians in the scene by the overnight rise to popularity of their all girl band Feathers, playing drum heavy, dreamy dance songs and rivaling Bowie in stage dress. Of course.

Sorry guys, she's taken.

Habitat of a Feral White Ruby

So many pictures. It was fun though. I was inspired to do a room tour of Ruby's world by another mommy blogger, but also because it happens to be clean today, a phenomenon which occurs very seldom around these parts. The pictures of the other little girl's room can be found here. Miss James is a seasoned blogger, incorporating fashion, vintage and mommying with breathtaking photography (my favorite things!). My friends have been telling me for awhile that I should start a blog, but it wasn't until I stumbled upon Bleubirdvintage and also my sister in law, Jennifer's "documenting adventures abroad" that I really got the bug. I highly recommend reading both.
