99 bottles of beer on the wall

Ok, which one of you drew hair on my face when I was asleep? And stop singing that song!

Missoni top, can also be pulled down into a dress. If you are 19 years old. Which I am not.

Back at the yard


This dress makes me feel all Kardashian. No, not Armenian or slutty, but like I have a big ass in a good way. Do you like that schlumpy model pose? Even thought I think I saw it on somebody last week at Elegant Funk, this dress is pretty great. The wide banded bottom keeps it tight so it won't ride up up and it looks all Addicted to Love miniskirt-ish. You can't see it, but there is ruffling at the bottom of the straps that makes it all girly. Multiple Choice: black, grey or brown accessories would look good with all the colors so everyone gets to come out and play. I had to wear my t shirt backward because I only have grey in v neck, trauma did that morning discovery bring

Sad, sad news


The Unique Thrift always has a consistantly large selection of new and vintage and unlike most thrift stores would put out bizarre yet covetable good others would throw away. (Sippy tops, shrunk cashmere sweaters, Jarts) Almost causing me to pee my pants, I actually found the holy grail of thrifting, a Chanel jacket for $25. Alas, they are closing for good this week, and have starting a sliding scale of discounts. Today starts 50% off, by Sat it will be 80% . They are continuing to put out new merchandise but honestly, I would go now, as I suspect by 70% it will be garbage city. My last hurrah purchase is this great 60's taffeta beaded formal.

Someone is Sucking Up


Chandalier earring are so ovah but these look very Bollywood mahrarajha to me. The silver is very soft and I can actully bend the bottom part and make it straighter or leave it in that curve. I love the reddish tint the amethysts have, they seem to be constantly changing colors.

Do we really need instructions?





Wouldn't this look super cute with that jeweled Marc Jacobs mouse ears headband? I could not find an image of it, perhaps it was in my imagination, but I do remember Victoria Beckham with something goofy on her head and it was not just her face. Oh , girlfriend, don't get all snippy, I am just kidding. Maybe I'll just make my own! Ruffled bib shirt from Alloy, of all places, I thought they automatically blocked your phone number when you had your 23rd birthday, but I guess not. Going to wear it this fall with my Burberry mini or old boarding school skirt.

Maybe next time

The new Dolce & Gabbana 2008-2009 ad campaign is, honestly, what my ideal life would look like. Crumbling estate, lots of animals, eccentric clothing, sinister relatives. Total package

I know what I like


Doesn't this this Lie Sang Bong coat look sorta like that Bottega Veneta one in an earlier post? Still loving that over the top texture look but am kinda glad I can't afford it. Since I have been short my whole life, I am fully aware of the effect a voluminous coat can have on a person. The first time I wore my coyote coat I was coming home from a root canal and my roommate told me it looked like a giant hamster was driving my car around. She hates fur but looking back at it now, I can see she was right
