Hi Darlings. Kimberly Grace here, with an update from Keiko. Please take note if you have ordered something from Postlapsaria.

Keiko left for the airport earlier last week and found out her grandfather had passed away. She drove from South Florida to Fellsmere to find that Rowdy, her horse of 20 years, is extremely ill. She spent the weekend taking care of him and dealing with the vet. She got her sister's truck stuck in the mud while out there. When she got back to South Florida, she had to take her sister's dogs to the vet for emergency care. And to top it all off, her computer got smashed while she was in Fellsmere.

Needless to say, it's been a rough week.

This post is to let you all know that she has no computer and can't update her site. If you bought something and got a confirmation through Paypal, then you will be receiving that item. If you are getting an error message, it means the item has already been sold.

Thank you so much for your understanding. Please send positive thoughts Keiko's way. She needs them!

Love love,
Kimberly Grace

Something you should know about me: I exhaust the things I love. My favorite songs are played on repeat until everyone wants to throw my computer out the window, every Pushing Daisies and Arrested Development episode has been watched several times. I play specific scenes from Romeo + Juliet over and over and ever since Jeremy introduced me to this commercial, I'm pretty sure Kim and I have watched it ten times.

Clothing and accessories are no exception. I probably have about fifty pairs of shoes, but I always reach for the same select few. My bag? Until I find something comparable to switch it up a bit (it's the perfect bag for me), it is what I will use 90% of the time. And this bow belt - forget it. I wear it every other day, despite having an obscene collection of belts. I get comfortable with something and reach for it instinctively. Not to mention, since I wore them the other day, they happen to be within reach, draped over my chair or sitting next to the door. I haven't decided whether or not this is a habit that needs to be broken...maybe I should branch out a little more, though. I know you all must be tired of seeing the same thing over and over.

I did manage to infuse some life into my tired closet via my new fringe skirt, which came to me courtesy of Shop Mamie. I met Amy, one half of the Shop Mamie duo, during fashion week and the lot of us (Amanda, Samara and Kim included) were attached at the hip all day and night. I thought about wearing my new skirt the day we met up, but it's always a little awkward being that girl. I love the movement of fringe skirts (I still need to return Samara's to her...); it makes walking around so much more enjoyable. I have a tendency to strut a little more when there is something to be put in motion, especially when paired with a really great song on my iPod. I guess I like to pretend I'm living in a movie, soundtrack and all. Does anyone else do that?

Sheila and Amanda


Me, Jen and Kelly

After a Q&A; with NYFW creator and IMG VP Fern Mallis at Bryant Park, Amanda and I made a stop at Sheila Frank's presentation across the street. We immediately ran into the lovely Gala Darling, whom I met just a couple nights before at the Fashion 2.0 Social Media Awards. I had the pleasure of finally meeting Susan from ModCloth, and also caught up with Diane of Snapshot Fashion. On top of all that, I met a couple of fellow bloggers, Jen and Kelly, who were lucky winners of Diane's giveaway (they won invitations to the presentation).

Sheila's clothing had a macabre inspiration, with a theme of stalkers inspiring the entire presentation. Red was the prevalent color choice, and there were photographs displayed along the wall which completed the theme. We had to run to another show but I'm glad we were able to catch up with Sheila and so many other familiar faces.


Love love,

Keiko Lynn

The winner is Allie (allie07421). Congratulations!

You can see little Miku's ears in the bottom corner. She is my constant companion.


This one is for my mom. She cringes when she sees bad posture (I have horrible posture, especially when I laugh; I need to work on that). I like to give her a hard time.


MAC Russian Red...this lipstick never quits.


The first time I wore these shorts, I got a lot of negative feedback. Don't worry, I am not expecting anything different this time around. I understand that they are not for everyone, but after much consideration I have decided that they are staying in my closet. I completely respect your opinions, but sometimes I just have to stand by my own taste, you know? I will probably look back on this and think, "they were totally right, these are horrible." Right now, however, I think they're fun. I consider my clothing choices little booster shots of varying emotions. Cheerful colors make me happy, soft colors make me feel romantic, so on and so forth. On this particular day, I was in major need of a pick-me-up, so I put on the brightest of reds. Naturally, I made sure my lips matched.

Outfit Details:
red beret - from a cute little lady who used to sell her handmade hats at the flea market...for 50 cents and $1!
vintage sweater - thrifted
navy top - forever 21
navy belt - thrifted
vintage shorts - Jet Rag, Los Angeles
tights - H&M
shoes - Calvin Klein, from Beacon's Closet
Miku - she slid down a rainbow that originated in Candy Land
lipstick - MAC Russian Red (I didn't have to reapply all day. This is serious stuff.)

Love love,
Keiko Lynn

p.s. I regret that my beret is not a raspberry hue, but I gave that one away to a lovely model well over a year ago. Rest assured, I will find another one and I will listen to Prince every single time I wear it. I'm actually listening to that song right now, hence the title. Where have all the raspberry women gone?
