If you're like me, this is the time of the year where your stressing over having enough holiday dresses. There are literally so many events, parties, and things to have a bomb ass fucking dress for. I'm scrolling through the pages of Nasty Gal and Revolve trying to decide what to order every other hour on my phone.

Luckily, Motel Rockshooked up with me to bring you guys some dope holiday dress ideas. The first dress I selected from their holiday selections is this little sequin number. I'm really into how it's got long sleeves but a nice dip in the back. It's a good sexy compromise. The Gabby Sequin, it's called! I love the sexy plunge back, certainly my favorite part of the dress (aside from the sequins, aside from the color!)

Also what I've been doing this holiday, which is a little interesting, is pairing fancy dresses with more street/platform/casual shoes. It's a nice mix of party and play (not to mention makes long walks to the subway so much nicer.) Here I am wearing the Viva Mondo Creeper! They are so so stellar. I love wearing them casual and for a night out. Literally the studs and the platform, I couldn't find a shore more me if I tried!

How are you guys doing with dressing for the holidays? Any advice or things I can help with?

Sugar high and stoned at home on a Friday night. She had a vibe and they started digging it. Daydreaming about Steve Miller Band and strawberry sweets. She made her home a world of her own, tripping on rainbows and sparkle stickers. Her diary was covered with Lisa Frank and the only cups she had in the house were champagne glasses. She thrived on smiles and playing dress up. Furs, crop tops and ironic sayings. Dancing the night away all on her own, gummy bears and champagne for dinner before a kaleidoscope sleep in a giant white bed. It was all a dream.

Upper West Side

by Rachel Lynch in


IMG_7690 IMG_7718 up1 up2 up4 up329Here's a cool look I shot with Phil on the Upper West Side a few weeks back. I'm wearing a really cool leopard jacket from Missguided and these super funky shoes form Kat Macoine.

I actually bought the shoes for Fashion Week, but I didn't end up wearing them. Nasty Gal was carrying them, so I bought them from there. Sadly, you can't get them on their anymore.  The heel is super cool cause it's square. I don't own any shoes with a heel like that, so I had to have them!

Anyways, that's all I have for today guys! Tomorrow I'm going to be uploading a super special editorial shot in my new home again so get stoked! (Oh and tomorrow is Friday, so duh! Be excited!)

Black & White for Days

by Rachel Lynch in


b11 bw1 bw2 bw3 bw4 bw5 bw6bw7bw10Happy Tuesday guys! It's pouring right now in NYC, but I just got back from the gym and I'm feeling so energized and inspired! I have a lot of exciting things coming for you guys, including some fun shoots with my boyfriend and some big stuff on the West Coast.

Anyways, here's one of my favorite basic looks to rock on a weekday. I just got this black and white jacket by Line & Dot (absolutely obsessed!)  and I paired it with my favorite basic white tee + leather pants. There is really nothing like a big fur coat over a simple white tee shirt + leather. It's so casual yet chic.

My shoes are by UNIF & they make me like 6 feet tall (totes necessary for chic points~) & the sunnies are of course by Wildfox. The classic round frames are still some of my favorites. How would you guys style this black & white fur coat?

Much love & positive energy today guys! Get motivated and make your dream a reality.

Hey shady baby, I'm hot. I'm sad. But I need a little sadness. Depression is like a motor for creation. I know you disagree. A surface as dry as Venus, hot enough to melt lead. Being with you is like being on a cloud of sulfuric acid that reaches 100 miles high. We're living in a time of massive change, like the Industrial Revolution on cyber acid.

 LSD burst, psychedelic slip. It was the beginning and we were creating art, creating ourselves. Dressing up and manipulating light. There's more to reality than we've encountered. Pop culture keeps you catatonic, keeps you from searching beyond that which is laid out in front of you. Eenie, meenie, miney, moe you're the chosen one.

The Lost Pony

The designer of the line and her boyfriend (the photographer) came over to my Castle playland apartment in Brooklyn. We drank pink champagne and ordered massive amounts of chips and guacamole. It was a really cold, but fun day running around my building in all the new pieces. I love the soft feel of the tanks and the cut of the crop tops. Sometimes crop top are not flattering on me, but I really really adore these ones! The tanks are awesome too, I can't wait to wear the gray one to coffee errands and yoga class!

This is one of the last shoots I did at my magical fairy land of an apartment, I hope the photos bring you all the magic of her brand and my heart! It was a perfect match! <3

Pink Moto Fur

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8This pink Chaser Moto jacket is my ABSOLUTE favorite piece of the season. Do I even need to say that? You can tell right? I mean it's my soul in a jacket: Pink + Motorcycle + Fur = my spirit animal. So I paired it with my favorite pair of leather pants and my Brian Lichtenberg together as the perfect black base for this amazing creature jacket.

How would you wear this jacket?

I love the cut and material of the tee as well as the photography on it. I'm wearing the black magic tee + holding the shady lady clutch! Finally a cute tee places that actually uses good photos as their graphics.

Hope you enjoy

If you can fix me up, you'll go a long way. East of the city she dwelled. In the black of the night, her layers of jewels reflected in the crescent moon. She moved from a beach town to the city to be wild. She wanted studs around her neck, not flowers in her hair. Her fanatical glow froze those around her. Dark eyes, bright eyes. Pick me up and throw me babycakes. Cross bones. She broke away.
