Sooo I kind of look like death in this particular series, but what can you do. I tried to distract from that problem with various ridiculous poses. A long day in the city is hardly the means to looking refreshed. I decided to lift the curse on this dress, which I bought last year at H&M for an occasion that turned pretty sour. And I know I've kind of been over-wearing these boots, but they're kind of all I ever feel like prancing around in. I must note that I have never had so many strangers stare at my shoes so pointedly it's almost awkward, both male and female. Who knows what they're thinking but it is hilarious. One girl that was running and listening to her iPod actually stopped and, panting, asked me where I got them. I love strangers.

i have been mulling over these boots (wanting them sooo much!) but not sure will i still want to wear them next fall/winter, or do you think they'll be overplayed by then? hmmm...
i dont blame you for wearing those shoes they are pretty phenomenal
hahahhaha thats the cutest story about your boots. i actually just borrowed my friends combat boots (phots on my page) and i thought of yours. by no means are they as chic and adorable, but nonetheless, i had yours in mind.
but that khaki parka is absolutely amazing.
if i had those shoes i wouldn't take them off!
haha strangers are fun :-)
I can see why you dont take them off, very cute, dont your feet get sore though? my feet hurt in everything lol! I think its because none of my shoes have any support.
love your outfit! and yes,those boots is awesome, i'll be stopping,panting, and being that stranger too,asking you where you get them :)
Those shoes are so gorgeous!
I want that jacket.
this makes you look really tall.
rumi! i am an obessive checker of your blog, and finally decided to post something back (despite my blahhhhhh "anonymous" status). i just want you to know that for every 1 of me there's probably 20 other girls who also check this at LEAST once a day but never let you know. SO, i'm just letting you know: you're style is lovely, and it's refreshing to have a equally lovely writing voice that goes along with it! when i get home from class i love checking this site, it provides me with some nice inspiration after a tedious day.

i love shared style moments with strangers even more.
something so lovely and grin inducing when strangers approach each other to comment on a piece of clothing.
..i just sounded soso superficial! oh..
There is no such thing as over-wearing a pair of shoes that amazing. Seems every time you put them on, you find a whole new way to interpret them & merge them into your personality. I'm so impressed. And a wee bit jealous.
Hi Rumi!
I absolutely adore your style, yet I must must confess that this dress does nothing for you. Kinda like a lab coat or something in that direction - unless you're not going for some "naughty nurse" ;0) kinda look, you really should ditch it. Love you the most in your cute little floral numbers indeed...
What's up with treasurechestvintage at the moment, btw? Checked it yesterday (more for inspiration than purchase, I must confess - sadly, I'm not as petite as you are) and was kinda sad to find it "empty". No news due to the new job?
After all: AWESOME BLOG - You Rock!!!
Greetings from Spain, Honey!

Hi :)
You really look like the Swedish Blogger Kenza.
http://kenzas.se you really do!
And where are you from?
I mean your ethnicities :)
Hot outfit! Love, love, love the shoes!!
Love your shoes and the jacket :D
I need those shoes.
Hi Rumi-Your blog is lovely and so are you! I understand it can be difficult moving back with parents but please don't worry--it is temporary right? You are an artist and sometimes artists have to go through a hard time to grow even more! Does it make sense? Thanks for posting!
i love your shoes and jacket!
I love how you paired the shoes with that dress.
I love the whole look - I think the jacket goes with the dress really well :)
And such great news on the boots - they do look really interesting, must be great having people come up to you wondering where they can get them!
Is the jacket a recent purchase from Old Navy? I am in love with it.
the collar of the dress reminds me a lot of the dresses in the marc by marc fall show... and those shoes are definitely lust-worthy, i can't blame you for over wearing them. :)
I love your whole outfit!!!
wow i love this outfit!
I know that you wear a lot of opaque tights. Would you please recommend a brand? Thanks!!!
Cute dress, and I LOVE the brown jacket!!!
Hey Rumi! Is the jacket from this spring's colletion - I'm in love! - of course with the boots too, but the jacket is a lot more attainable. Thx!
could you post close-up pictures of your gladiator wedges you worse last post? from what i could see i love them
wore*
I really like your outfit girl!!

j'adore the dress!
Love it...
Your boots are great ! Love the jacket too !
Love it!
Hi! I wrote about you on my (swedish) blog today. I hope that's ok! :)
I love your blog and your outfits, they're great!
I find strangers gawking at my weird boots pretty amusing. Though my boots may be a little more off kilter than yours since they have cutouts on them -lol.
I'm not suprised you love wearing the boots, they're amazing!
effortlessly chic you are.
so cute! that dress makes you look like a little doll.
I've been totally overwearing these barbie-esque hot pink shoes I got from H&M too. I can't help it though, they just go with everything! So, I feel ya.
the stark different between the crisp white dress and opaque tights is stunning. i am IN LOVE with the combo-- it's so simple and stylish. i love that you didn't use a belt or a long necklace (like i would have)-- the simplicity is what i adore!
hah if you resemble death in these pictures, then i'm a walking grim reaper on a daily basis!
you're so so stunning.
oh and i check your bIog compuIsiveIy on a, oh i don't know... trihourIy? basis!
amazing styIe; thanks for being an inspiration!
I think that you would look sooo much nicer if you switched to lighter eye shadow, Rumi.
hey. i am in love with your shoe collection. i love high heels but after half a day my feet are killing me. any tips on keeping your feet happy or does it just take practice? also, how high are the heels on those marcs?
those boots ARE worthy of traffic-stopping
So cute!
And I love the jacket
