Maven style muse: Jamie Bochert

Good morning, Friday. I'm listening to the Talking Heads (yes, again) and feeling very relieved that today is Friday. I'm ready for the weekend and have some fun things planned- looking forward to a fun dinner party and late (guessing Saturday will go late so LATE) brunch with a good friend on Sunday afternoon. The weather is gorgeous here, but damn if I know how to really dress for it. Is it time for sandals yet or no? Always such a hard call. I'm saying not yet, unless it's evening and you've got trousers on. Otherwise, keep the toes closed another week or so. 

In other news, if you want to know my definition of cooler than cooler than cool, look no further than Dazed Digital's recent editorial cover story on Jamie Bochert. The styling is sort of boho/Belgian and I'm dying a thousand deaths over it. Not to mention Jamie's incredible rock and roll hair and cool lankiness and I'm just an absolute goner.  Ms. Bochert used to be a model, grew up in Jersey, and is now a musician living in New York with her husband, actor Michael Pitt. I'm sure their life is the WORST. Ha.

Needless to say, her Patti Smith/androgynous vibe is lost on not a single one of us. How amazing is she?  What an alien. I love her. (Even if she is from Jersey).

I posted the story for you to see because it's how I'm feeling about the weekend- being a little bit rebellious, wearing something flowy but not fussy and embracing a bit of the outsider status I sometimes run from. Why not? It's Spring in New York and it's time to break free- I need that gold feather necklace she's wearing, ps. So fabulous. I just love that this story is def in boho country, but it's not the least bit LIttle House or Coachella- it's more bohos in space or postmodern hippie. Whatever it is, I love it.

And that's what's up this blasting off into Friday in the universe of Manhattan. Yours, in Belgian design and Jersey girl rockstar vibes. Fashion rebels unite. XO
