70's Summer

I've been hunting for the perfect little pair of 70's wedge sandals for some time now. Of course I've had no success, as I tend to be rather unlucky when it comes to finding things right when I want them. Etsy is somewhat of a goldmine for decently priced vintage shoes, so why are none in my size?! Some one should buy the following pairs and look cute as hell this summer.

Unusual perfection, from Allen Company, Inc., size 7.5


Pretty Italian babies, from Haute Country Vintage, size 7


Exactly what I'm looking for, from myartsdesire, size 7-7.5


Vintage Fendi! from Shotgun Vintage, size 6


Sighhhhh, from cookiesandcreme, size 7.5-8

If you'll excuse me, I need to commence binding my feet. Being a size 9 is clearly getting me nowhere in life.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!

Just because I'm no longer a child doesn't mean I can't over-indulge on candy and color Easter eggs, does it? I find it amusing the eggs look, err, Balmain-ish. Hah!

I had planned to start up my Etsy vintage store today but I'm going to hold off on it for a couple more weeks, when I have more time to devote to it. Expect some awesome vintage pieces for cheap very soon.

And aren't my neon Ray-Bans sweet? I love ridiculous shades.

Playing Favorites

top - Vena Cava, jeans - Cheap Monday, shoes - vintage YSL

I wore all of my favorite things today. The Vena Cava top I'll never grow tired of, black jeans that are the perfect length, my little vintage YSL oh-so French shoes. It's Friday, I'm very tired, and dressing needed to be easy. Of course this plan has gone out the window now since I just agreed to a date and have no clue what to wear...currently sitting in my PJs. Damn.

Softer

I've been feeling scattered and less than inspired lately and taken to combing through tFS archives of 90's editorials. There's plenty of Christy Turlington and Kate Moss looking fresh as ever, but I was ultimately pulled in by the eerie, quiet editorials in which the models look 10,000 miles away. Paolo Roversi is a photographer who pulls this off consistantly in his work, but the 90's in general seemed rife with it.


Who needs lavish sets when you have a cold piercing gaze.

Also, not sure how many of you use Tumblr but I like it for mood specific image dumps like these, and post over here as well.

All I need is the air that I breathe

Ah Sundays. I love you even more than Saturdays.
I indulge...

I listen to sweet 70's love songs...

I dance around my room, not bothering to fully dress...

And now, time for a nap.

R and R

Not much to talk about today, just some photos. Enjoying a quiet day inside listening to records. I really wish I had more time to do outfit posts, it's nice when I get the chance to do them without any haste. Oh...what color should I paint my bedroom walls? Their current state makes for nice little melancholy photos but I'm not down with actually living like this for much longer.

Messymouth.

Future Classics S/S 09

I've been trying to decide what I want spring to look like. All of that A.P.C. Liberty print stuff kind of made me want to hurl, I need an alternate route. One not filled with saccharine sweetness. It doesn't quite suit my personality. While browsing Jumelle's online shop, I came across Future Classics. Yes, I think this is what I want Spring to look like. Slinky, loose, easy silhouettes with a bit of a sinister thing going on. Prints offered in a way that feels fresh. Black that doesn't look like it belongs in winter.
