We think she’s N.E.E.T. because of: her hair
Coury Combs, 29, Los Angeles, runs her online store (on eBay for now) and blog full time – and has many dreams for the future! She blogs over at: fancytreehouse.blogspot.com
What’s the meaning behind your blog’s name?
My sister and I used to play music together in my bedroom and she wrote a song called “My Treehouse” that I loved. I had a xanga that I named mytreehouse and somewhere along the way, mytreehouse was unavailable so I decided on fancytreehouse because if there’s anything better than a treehouse it’s a fancy treehouse!
Your style icons?
Mostly everyone from any era (1700s to present!) who had any kind of personal style and made whatever they wore their own. I particularly always love the 1960s and Sandra Dee, Goldie Hawn, Pattie Boyd, etc..
How would you describe your style?
I recently said “What a cupcake would wear if a cupcake wore clothes” but when I said that I had definitely had a margarita. I don’t take it back, though. I love sweet colors and fabrics. I like to be comfortable too. Could I walk around at Disneyland in this outfit? Could I stroll through the forest? Good.
What inspires you?
I love color. It fascinates me. Stylish films from the 60s are particularly inspiring to me at the moment.
Your favorite item in your wardrobe?
I can’t play favorites because I mostly wear pieces I’m going to sell in my store. I love all my my shoes, though. I think it’s important to have really nicely made shoes. I don’t really get too attached to any of my clothes. I just love them and leave them!
How would you describe your blog?
It’s basically chronicling what I wear everyday with glimpses into my life. I love keeping my life documented because I love life so much. I don’t ever want to forget anything.
What are your fashion plans for this spring?
I’m loving colorblocking pastels. I just want to pile on every pink, peach, mint, pale yellow, and lavender item I own! I’m also trying to wear more heels. I always wear flats but I’m going to challenge myself!
Local Shopping Secrets:
I mostly shop online. A lot of the vintage stores in LA have this attitude that doesn’t make me feel welcome. I won’t name any of those but there’s a cute store in Echo Park called Bobbie and a cute store in Eagle Rock called Lady that are fun to check out.
Online Shopping Secrets:
Ban.do (love the pompoms, sequin hearts, and bow headbands!), Red Velvet (darling new dress line!), Sea of Bees (the best animal jewelry!) and Adore Vintage (the dreamiest vintage!)
We think she’s N.E.E.T. because of: her hair (platinum blonde! big fringe!) – and her mix and match of styles!
