It Girl: Kate Lanphear.

Kate may just be the name of the moment, but today there is one more style-setting Kate to add to the list. This Kate is the Senior Style Editor at US Elle but held positions at Vogue Australia and Harper's Bazaar (in both Australia and the US) before landing the coveted Elle position. One thing that I can't get enough of is how true to her own style this Kate is- edgy, androgynous and punk with touches of glamour (take those Christian Louboutin fringe booties or those little skirts she rocks.) Rarely photographed in a color other than black, white or grey, this It Girl just goes to show that you don't mess with a good thing. Fear her, you should. File under hardcore.

Edited: Another Sunday.

A typical Sunday for me looks a little bit like this editorial of Julia Saner in Vogue Turkey- I go to the market to pick up food for the week, I get stuck in typical Bay Area traffic somewhere along the way, I'll take a quick run to the salon or just the bookstore next door to catch up on some reading and well...OK so I've only been to the horse races on one particular Sunday. So maybe this comparison is a little far-fetched also considering my closet is at a lack of couture. But perhaps next Sunday I'll throw on my little red dress instead of my go-to Vince leggings in an attempt to make my day a little more glamorous, if just by a little bit. File under improvement.

Edited: Anchors Away.

There is nothing I'd rather do on this particularly warm Sunday than take a boat out in the San Francisco bay and attempt to be just as glamorous as Georgina Stojiljkovic in this fantastic scuba inspired shoot for Elle Sweden's June 2011 issue. Although I'm not sure I'd be able to catch any fish on my imaginary boat, there would be plenty of real time to stop at the Embarcadero on the way back for some just-caught steamed crab and freshly stewed clam chowder at the pier, one of the many awesome perks of living near the Bay. File under very fishy.
