    Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats is a work of literary genius. Divine inspiration. Like Edward Gorey’s cat drawings! And those cut-out saddle shoes!

  • gremlanne February 27th, 2012 8:27 PM

    oh my gosh that trumpet was bugging me so much. it’s on the wrong side :P everything but that was so beautiful. the shoes, the windows… man.

  • Claudia February 27th, 2012 8:31 PM

    Very, very, very pretty. Reminds me of the happiness and glitter that come when being a girl. Lovely job, Tavi.

  • Abby February 27th, 2012 8:49 PM

    Rachel was my first ever favorite designer—this is so indulgent for me!

  • February 27th, 2012 9:44 PM

    god I love Rachel Antonoff !!!!! :)

  • universick February 27th, 2012 10:04 PM

    that poor trumpet! all banged up and lying on the wrong side :(
    love the b&w cutout art, though.

  • Susann February 28th, 2012 12:31 AM

    This is absolutely wonderful, i love you rookiemag!

  • mayaautumn February 28th, 2012 2:30 AM

    luvlee jublee! I especially love the muppet (pic 9) – im obsessed with them at the mo – but the puppet (pic 14) scares me:o xx

  • Trisarahtops February 28th, 2012 12:31 PM

    This is exactly what I needed!

  • moonflower February 28th, 2012 1:17 PM

    The shoe collection is exactly what I needed to inspire me right now! Creepers are great and everything, but my friend recently bought a pair and so I’d feel like a copycat if I got some. I’ve been looking for an alternative thick-soled shoe with no real luck until now! Yay!

    Tavi. You are the luckiest girl in the world. And this is amazing! could you ask Laura and Kate (Rodarte)if they would show us their studio?

    • Tavi February 28th, 2012 6:33 PM

      when i first went there a few years ago i took a few (kind of shitty) photos on my blog actually – http://www.thestylerookie.com/2009/05/lalala.html
      but maybe that could be another good rookie feature!

      • ThePuNkR0ckeR February 29th, 2012 9:33 PM

        Thanks!! Also, I might get Justin Bieber to do an interview. Can I be a Rookie writer?

  • Ellie February 29th, 2012 7:45 PM

    SO BEAUTIFUL. I love seeing other people’s studios/desks/creative spots of splendor. It says so much about a person.
