Samantha has been going on about Erin Morgenstern’s The Night Circus for months, so I finally got around to reading it. It is fantastic. There will be obvious comparisons to Geek Love, to Tim Burton’s work back before he sucked, and to Neil Gaiman, but the book manages to take in all of those influence without becoming trite or genre or predictable. It is a fairy tale and a love story, and it is truly enchanting.

It will make you want a red scarf.

I am so in love with this dress from Iris Van Herpen’s S/S 2012 collection! It looks like it just grew on the model, like bark or crystals, or maybe was built there by wee fairy architects in need of a summer home.
