musings

So i had a lull in posting just random inspiration pictures from the blogs i read because i just felt like they were already all over all the other blogs that i and most people read so i didnt see a point in recycling them, but i realized its good to do anyways. can't just have pictures of me!

So this is just some stuff i pulled recently from ilovewildfox/gofashionlane and some others. i will keep adding more when i come across good stuff!

chunky

wah. i want chunky wood platforms for summer!

christeric. usually i favor the natural wood color but i love these!
okay.. so i really hated clogs but the jeffreycampbell charlie keeps growing on me.. and the floral!! lorisshoes.com and freepeople.com

these jeffreys are just so summery! perfect for floral dresses and rompers and high waisted levis

same with these! both from freepeople.com

and well these are just perfect haha definately look exactly these jessica simpson shoes from rumi at fashiontoast but because theyre jeffrey campbell they win me over! and looking back they appear to be the same maybe she made a mistake.. regardless, love!

no place like home!

So clearly this look has transcended from the Wizard of Oz and into my prom outfit but this trend caught my eye a couple of times recently

sex and the city starring THOSE LOUBOUTINS.


both haile and i were stunned by those! i dont have a picture of hailes prom shoes but they are very much channeling those! ill leave her to put some up

And the other day ms.trashbagblack and I were looking at the new W magazine and there was an entire spread that featured only oversized sweaters, socks, and sparkle shoes! we both loved the look i cant seem to find some of my favorite pictures from the shoot but these give you the idea

postprom

so i've been biting my tongue about what i was wearing to prom so here it goes!

the dress is vintage circa 1990's, black velvet mini with caged neckline and rhinestones! i got it on valentines day for a whopping $18 at wasteland in santa monica! (i prefer the melrose location but it was a great find!) i bought it because i just liked it and then a couple weeks later after having not worn it i realized it was perfect! it fits like a glove and i just had to get it shortened a few inches!

so we had already seen my hair but it looked even better this time and the straight looked perfect! very vietnam with my military jacket that i wore to get it done.

i cant stand having my makeup done professionally because it never turns out how i want it too and im pretty handy so i went shopping a week before and got a light studio fix foundation by mac, a gold base and honey lust (i think?) powder, and some relatively natural looking lashes! i kept the cat eye short and simple and only wore eyeliner under my upper lids. my mom whipped out her vintage jewelry and let me wear these vintage diamonds that were my grandmothers. love! she also gave me to wear her charm bracelet from 1965 and engraved gold earrings that were also my grandmothers from the 50s

finally, shoes! so Connor and I are about the same height so heels were out of the question, but who can complain about glittered creepers!! i got them at posers for a pretty penny but definitely worth it because i plan on wearing them forever and ever! and please note the perfection of Connors outfit! although he wanted to wear a bolo tie (gag) we settled on this vintage western shirt with a black bowtie. love you

i discussed girdles before, and they are the perfect solution for bodyslimmers, because let's face it spanx are just not appealing. both haile and i ordered ours off of girdlebound.com and were extremely happy! disregard the weirdness of this picture i felt it was important to mention haha for my nails, which i didnt get a picture of i did mad as a hatter on my right hand and then a purple and brown cheetah print for my left. worn with my burgundy watch cover. thats all for now! my sister took a lot of film pictures that she's going to print in our new dark room along with some other stuff she's shot of me so i will put those up when i can!

todaystheday!

so prom is tonight. wooooo. everything is in place in my neck of the woods, im about to get my hair done at floyds, and as far as my dress and shoes, it will be a surprise to the like 3 people who read our page! same goes for haile. she's changed her dress once again and you will have to wait until tomorrow to see! i must say this is my favorite time of year on facebook, prom pictures galore! the good, the bad, and unfortunately the ugly. ive tried to do my best this year to convince as many people as possible that you don't HAVE to wear strappy gold heels to match your dress! this year it's all about pumps and platforms, out with sandal heels. well, im not wearing any of the above, so ha! i will have a ton of photos that i will post of every detail of my outfit

u.s.navy

so this look by Alexa Chung circulated the blog circuit after Coachella, and the utility jacket was much appreciated!

It then popped up as an LF Trend Report!

And again!

And finally, where i come in, i was at rosebowl last month and happened to see christeric.. die!! i went up to her and looked like an idiot but noted her wearing chain suspenders and later she was wearing a army green military jacket! which got me. so i shopped around a little and finally picked out this u.s. navy one for $5 and cut off the sleeves.

worn with a vintage pale pink lace romper
