Playing around with a few new things.
1. Erin Wasson/RVCA bandage skirt with gold studs. I've already worn this a ton, I love that it's a really thick knit instead of your standard jersey. Plus, studs.
2. Spiderweb lace lingerie top. So trashy, so in love. I imagine it's probably supposed to be part of some Morticia Addams costume. Man, what am I going to be for Halloween if I'm using up all these ideas now?
3. Studded ankle boots that I fell for when Karla posted them a few days ago. I haven't ordered anything from Victoria's Secret since..I'm approximating..my sorority days. Wow. Any DGs out there? Anyway, the boots are the sickness. I'm guessing they will be the new requisite blogger footwear. I remember fainting slightly when I saw (fondled) the Louboutins they're a knockoff of at Neiman Marcus on clearance for $400 or so. Prooobably should have just taken the plunge, however that was back in January and I was less insane then. I'm giving these an A+ too though, good platform/heel ratio going on. I love how low-cut they are too.
Tank and skirt, Erin Wasson x RVCA. Heels, Colin Stuart at Victoria's Secret.
My swayback isn't really that bad. But it's still pretty bad. I wore this out last night to hang out with some law school students at some random bar. God knows what they thought of me. I told one of them that I work in fashion just to be succinct and he responded, "Figures". I look like I'm going to sneeze in that first picture.
Black lace top, random lingerie store. Boots, secondhand.
Ok and lastly, this is random, but for some reason I get a lot of questions about my hair, which I've always just found uselessly neither wavy nor straight. I was going to make a separate post about this but then realized I didn't really have that much to say. I get it highlighted obviously, use random drugstore shampoo/conditioner (currently Garnier), let it air-dry until I can't stand it being damp anymore, then spray it with Sunsilk Waves of Envy. Which costs about a cent, and smells kinda nice and oceanic. Sometimes it dries wavier, sometimes not, but that seems to be random more than anything else. I haven't touched a straightening iron in years now, mostly cause I don't care enough to and it's kinda scary to see steam coming off your strands. I hope that answers your questions and sorry it's not more interesting!

those shoes are so badass its unreal.
where did you get that bra from (in the first pic?) I love it...and how its a higher cut to peek through tanks...
i'm in law school, and i say you look great. never ordered on vs before, i'm a 38 in aldo, should i get 7.5 or 8 in these boots? just wondering if anyone here can help me get those hot studded things. btw, HOT skirt.
I was a DG at UCLA :) And also think those boots look pretty damn hot.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Rumi.
Saw said studded shoes, bought said studded shoes, now have to wait for said studded shoes to ship to Perth, Australia!
Thank you (and Karla!).
I'll def do a studded booties post once I get them.
*sooo excited*
crazy boots, I love them. you make them look comfortable.
I love those studded boots...me wants!
i love your skirt, and the studded boots. you are gorgeous.
Holy crap you're a delta gam? hottest girls at cornell for sure!
That's awesome! I never pledged, sorority wasn't for me but DG, Alpha Phi and tri delt were my top three when i went to rush but i just didnt stick w/ it didnt wanna do it.
love the top you have on in the first pic <3
i love those outfits, suits you
sexy boots! i'm so jealous of all your new loot, you wear it so well!
incidentally, what size did you order, do you recommend a size up/down or are they accurate? i'm usually a 37-37.5
Z xxx
Looks like everyone and their mother own those colin stuarts, myslef included. Wish they came in a white with gold studs that would be delicious.
That skirt is so lovely....
Those secondhand boots are to die for, wish that I could find a pair like that! And I really like the black lace top.
Erin Wasson!! OMGOSH! Is her label out yet?? I can't find it anyway online~
I LOVE YOUR BOOTS! It resemble Gucci's fall boot.
P.S: You are getting hotter day by day too!
xoxo
Fabulous as always. I feel like I could never pull any of it off because of my height, but I'm only about an inch or two shorter so maybe there's hope for me.
My sister is a DG! She's not into fashion, but she'll listen to anything if it involves DG so I'm definitely showing her your blog.
are they these boots? The Colin Stuart?

love everything on this post!!!
-Bellandbean
Those shoes are to die for. I really want them so I can wear them in the winter with skinny jeans and tights.
i love your look!
other than thrift shops
where do you shop?
there was another question i had to ask you but i forgot
A sorority girl? You??? I'm a Chi O, but we're about the only sorority on campus that doesn't dress exactly the same (sadly). I rushed DG, but I didn't exactly fit in with that group of girls.
Question: how do you find a pair of heels that don't give you blisters? Do you put cushions into them? Ugh, my ankles are all torn up and I want to wear my heels again!
I love your blog/clothes, so I was surprised that you look a little cheap in these pictures. Lace and straps and v cuts and very high heels and smokey eyes and thin see-through material all put together is not good.
I love that you have a very effortless style, from your clothing to your hair. I think it says a lot that you don't have to spend hours in front of a mirror getting your hair perfect. Beauty is often a lot simpler than people think.
Can I ask a question? Just how comfortable are the M by MJ ankle boots? I can just about tolerate the Nine West mirror wedges for a long period, what's the comfort level compared to them?
Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
If you don't mind me asking, what do you do for your job besides the ebay store? You and Karla are too much with the studded boots. I wanted the Loubs ever since I saw the Olsen twins rocking them.
This is a random question, but I you said that your boyfriend was going to Rome. I wondered if he shared what the fashion was like there.
I an going to be there in mid september, and would love to know.
Thank you : )
The skirt is phenomenal. I love studs that look high-end. It's such a hard look to pull off.
Rumi: Are the studded boots genuine leather? :) They are wonderful!!! You are fab!
you copied karla!
love your skirt though.
very cute. i use waves of envy too, that one with the bg spiral of hair cream in it. if you know what i mean. and it does smell nice, hah.
i have those shoes too! mine came on monday. i looove them!
the whole bra showing under the tank is so amazingly carrie bradshaw. hearts.
looking fantastic! I like the mixes!
A DG? That's fabulous. I'm the president of my sorority. We're local, so the name doesn't mean much, but it's always fun to hear what houses other people are from!
Also, that spiderweb shirt is awesome. Not too costumey at all, in my opinion.
I *need* those victoria secret boots ASAP. How did they run? TTS for cheapie shoes or do I need to size up like I do for high end? By the way, killer legs!!
The boots are absolutley amazing!
rummmiiii
man you are crazy. i just finished ordering those shoes, thanks to you!
i cant wait to get them, are they comfortable??
oh and you must do a video blog soon! i wonder what you sound like,i bet amazing! ahah :)
xxx
actually, my older sister was a DG!
I really like the studded boots, they make my heart melt.
oh man! I was SO a DG in Minneapolis... seems like a previous life.
I'm in love with that skirt!! I love that first outfit a ton too.
I'm in love with that skirt!! I love that first outfit a ton too.
Hi, i have a totally unrelated question,
What do you think of the Gucci FW08 collection (pret-a-porte of course),
when i saw it for the first time, i didn't really know what to think, and i have grown to love it, i got some pieces form there and am trying to imitate the rest...
Do you like it, because it seems strangley your style.
xoxo
Lada
random, but this outfit reminds me of milk(signe). which is always a good thing.
Hey Rumi. I just ordered those boots the other day, then I saw them on Karla's blog, now you have them too. ITA everyone will have a pair soon. I can't wait to get them. That's a great skirt it looks lovely on you.
my boss is a DG & so are half the girls i work with. the boutique i work at is DG central at FSU. haha. i love everything you're wearing, as always.
DG, huh. Didn't think you could possibly be any more interesting. I guess it's not so surprising that you were once a sorority girl, but then I remember some comment you made about connecting with girls when you met Lulu. Not that difficulty making personal female connections and being in a sorority are mutually exclusive, so I don't know what my point is.
Ah, I remember. You are the ultimate (excuse the cheesy cliche) femme fatale- infinitely complex and alluring.
I love how you make that otherwise trashy shirt look really...not trashy.
Between that skirt and those booties - best use of studs I have seen in forever!
need.... shoes..... now.....
i am breaking my budget and i blame you!
i get more and more jealous every time you post.
That first outfit is just like.. amazing.. That skirt is so fabulous, and those heels.. o.m.g That is totally the new blogger shoe that absolutely every blogger is now running out to buy, honestly I've already got my extra window ready to type victioria's secret into. Veryy lovely outfit indeed Rumi.
I cant believe this stuff isnt coming out untill next spring.. oh how you are torturing us =(
Wow killer boots. Question - are they particularly hard to walk in, or just as hard as any other shoe with that platform/heel ratio? And is there any traction on the bottom?
my hair is the same, not quite straight and not quite wavy... so it suffers great pain from the straightner :(
loving the new boots and that skirt!
xo
Those booties are a pretty cute knock-off pair! The studs are a bit different than in the Loubs, so they are not completely the same. How much did they cost? I love the skirt too!
hey rumi,
you know that white deep-v tee you have from AA?
what size do you have it in?
I was wanting to buy one with the same fit as yours.
Thanks!
i echo the request to id the bra :)
thank u for the hair tip- "waves of envy" hahaha oh my, what an intense name!
was wondering what u thought of the whole erin wasson/bliss lau copyright debacle? since ur such a big wasson fan and all? im torn! http://fashionista.com/2008/07/scene_genart_post_serious_dama.php
I'm a DG! funny And like you I have not ordered anything from VS since I lived on the sorority floor, i had this whole pile of things I was to lazy to return from them!
love the first pic-- top mix with the bra! where r the from?
the studded boots has been on my must have list since I browsed victorias secret.--Great outfit!
xx
:)
youre telling me that those ankle boots are from victorias secret?! omg?! i love them!
Hi! Are the Colin Stuart studded boots real leather? Im a 37 in Aldo and 6.5 in Nine West. What size do you think I should order online? Pleeeeaaaasssseeee help! Thanks so much!
im with everyone else, are they hard to walk in? Also they seem like they run a little tight in the front...do they? you probably don't notice though,cause it looks like you have narrow feet? im not sure though.
theres bullshit everywear...i guess i was ot the only one to get anonimous comments ha!
listen babe...i swap your mansion holiday for ibiza...
you look gorgeous as always!
ah! cograts for the Elle thing!
;)
I love minis like that, rock on!
Hi everyone! I'm going to answer all the questions tonight but wanted to provide a more in-depth review of the boots really quickly for those who want the dirt.
They're pretty comfortable because of the platform, if anything they run a little small so if you waver between sizes, definitely order bigger. I'm a 7/7.5 and the 7.5 fit great. There isn't really any traction on the bottom but I'm sure after some wear they wouldn't be so smooth as to be slippery. Hope that helps!
Oh, wow.
I just fell in love with those studded ankle boots.
I need, I need, I need!
[=
Are those shoes comfortable, because I have never bought shoes from VS that were....
But you look cute, as always
Love the white shirt and studded boots! The skirt is awesome as well :) Karla is always an inspiration.
love loe the first outfit!!
My hair is EXACTLY the same way, so it's nice to find out what's good to use. Oh, and I love this blog so, so, so, so, so much. Just something about it... I always read this one before my 23 (yes, 23) other fashion blogs/sites I have bookmarked.
I love that outfit Rumi. Does it not get really hot in all black though?!
I leave my hair natural too, it's just so much easier.
We have the same hair routine! I have to remember to try the Sunsilk!
It's really weird to me how mean people are when you say you're in fashion or want to go into fashion. They give this once over and then say stuff like "figures." or "oh....really?? huh." It's so rude! I would never say to someone, "Oh YOU'RE in law school?" Or treat them differently based on their chosen profession. People are such snobs!
both of these outfits are amazing btw but I'm really obsessed with the first one.
this skirt! ahh!
the skirt is ad.or.ab.le.
seriously.
good 4 erin wasson.
cute blog,
xoK.
how do you cut your bangs so that you can have the blunt bang look and the grown-out bangs look at the same time ?
oh and sorry i forgot to ask, is your hair naturally wavy like that or do you do something to it ? thanks !
I have been reading your blog for a long time, but was always too shy to comment, especially since I don't have a fashion blog of my own. I am venturing out of the woodwork, though, because I would love to know more about you!
Now that you have shared the secret of your amazing hair, would you mind sharing your exercise routine, if you have one? What perfume and bath and body products do you use?
I will be looking forward to your reply!
omgosh i totally missed the part where you blogged about your hair haha, sorry for asking you about it, just ignore my comment : )
OMG read one of the other comment and how do staying fit. And how the heck do you have so many views. tila tequila and myspace ain't got nothing on you
Ok I'm back, I answered the boot questions a couple comments up -
I'm dying to get a vlog up, honestly. I know I keep saying that, but the only camera I have right now is the Canon which has no video function..I'm trying to extract my mother's from her hands, she has some crazy amazing one she got last year for Christmas. This will either work, or not. Fingers crossed.
I haven't given the boots a super rigorous test yet, just out for a night, but they seem promising. But then again I seem to have a pretty high pain tolerance for heels. Platforms always help.
My bra is from Forever 21, I think it's still up on their site.
Much love to the DG girls!
Anon 2:45 my boyfriend made me a studio, so yup!
Pandarl, I was lucky enough to get samples of Erin's line but it's coming out in stores Spring 2009.
Anon 9:23 I'm thinking SO good with tights...wooo.
Rockzchi, I literally shop..everywhere. I always say where stuff is from so you can take a look back at the archives if you want specific!
Anon 10:30 I seem drawn to the trashiness lately lol, can't explain it. I definitely see where you're coming from though.
C, I have two pairs of the MJs, but the ones I wore a couple posts ago..the heel is pretty killer high but it's chunky enough to not be so so bad. They definitely slow me down some.
Arline, ooh lucky you, he reports to me that the people aren't dressed very well but the stores are full of awesome shit. In his words "they have the resources, they just don't use them" - but who knows that could just be him. Have fun!
Knightcat, hahah they're awesome you'll love 'em. So much video blog pressure ahhh! <3
Vlada, wow what did you get? I don't LOVE the collection as a whole but I would definitely die to get my hands on some of those belts and military jackets. And I spotted a studded boot or two in there too heh.
Tali LOVE Milk.
Jess your comment made me smile, sounded like one of my trains of thought haha. Yeah sorority = kinda random but my school was full of science nerds so you like..had to rush to meet normal people. Of course, those nerds are all probably pale millionaires now.
Elouise you gotta give the straightener a rest, honestly try this spray stuff it works!
Anna-Maria, the link is up there, they're about $100 :)
Venoose, I think mine's an XS or an XXS, men's sizing though.
Anon 6:25 all I know is I love Erin, I'm not going to believe everything I read on the internet.
Real stud, you probably want to get a 7.
Gala hmm YES to the mansion/Ibiza swap please. I went to Mallorca when I was in high school with a student group and we were all set to go to Ibiza then they decided it was a bad idea. DAMNIT. I will make it there someday. And thanks :)
Quincy <3
Bostonista haha it's not really much of a routine, good for us lazies! Definitely try the Sunsilk, it's kind of an obsession. Yeah people can be annoying, but actually this guy was actually kind of sweet/socially awkward. I asked him why he thought it "figured" and he said cause he thought I was pretty lol. Aw.
J I WISH that was humanly possible, I'm still suffering from an extremely horrible bangs trim so I've been pinning them back every single day. Which has been getting really, really old. Grow bangs grow!
Evangeline, I do yoga a couple times a week, I'm not really good at the whole beauty routine thing but I've been thinking about doing a post on it since people always ask...stay tuned.
Denae aww good ol' Tila has a much more dedicated following I'm sure haha. Ugh my old roommate used to always watch her crazy show. Don't miss that.
That skirt is amazing - AMAZING. And I love it with the tank and black lace bra.
am dying that you are a dg. they were so ribbon in their ponytail preppy at usc. not the type to rock morticia adams chic.
yay I ordered these boots and got 20% off. yay
the studs on the skirt is amazing!
God help me. I have been trying to resist buying those boots since Karla's post, and you are absolutely disintegrating my resolve. They look fantastic on you!
i bought a lace bra the other day just to wear under my american apparel tri blend tank. now i want a lepord print bra
I've just recieved those studded boots and the heels are really toooooooo high!
it's impossible to walk with them ...
wow! you're a DG as well? me too! makes me enjoy reading your blog all the more.
your fashion forte is your urban clothing sensibility. these outfits are superb without question
Rumi I wasn't exactly "sold" on those VS ankle boots until I saw you rockin them. Your pics just give me a better view on how they would work out. I hate that they used the diamond shaped studs instead of the round ones. But, I might just have to give these a try. Am a iittle too old to do the mini, but diva you do it well!
