These pictures are lovely! The light flair looks magical, and the wind accentuates your Hair. Dress is fab, and the boots are a beautiful rough contrast! Best picture I´ve seen of you!

amazing jacket- i saw it at topshop in SoHo and absolutely fell in love.

i have the studded blazer from topshop and am looking forward to playing around with it. hmm..

CNN....congrats, Rumi. The long-winded ranting haters must be steaming! Oh and for some reason this comment from the last post makes me laugh.

"she is a model for this blog that the haters keep coming back to in order to write out such long rants. and then again to respond to comments directed to their long rants. you obsessed haters love her. otherwise, why even dignify this blog with so much effort? when you grow up, you will be embarrassed in realizing how stupid you are."

Love ya girl!

Want to keep reminding them (inc. TEG and "intellectual" champ)."

Why would I be upset? If you go back and re-read what I've posted, all I've said essentially is how her fame is 100% based on your undying adoration. All this CNN article does is reconfirm that. I also said that Rumi is genius for being able to profit off of your mass low self-esteem and that she should be given an award (and at this rate, I'm sure she will).

Love these pictures and I love this outfit of yours!! Seriously bi-polar California weather pulls all the right strings for good layering.

yay

Anne said...

loved the article.. you are amazing, what pieces did you design for rvca? i want to purchase!

Nicha said...

I like how the jacket makes it look like the ends of your hair are feathers. Lighting is awesome as well, although I would love to see the print on the dress a bit more predominantly.

R said...

These pictures are so pretty, the lighting is perfect, this is a very last year reminiscent, love it =)
And congrats on the interview with CNN that's so cool!

I like this because I was really missing your old stuff.

Come to Australia! But ignore the people who say come to Brisbane... really don't, the style (and the city!) here is so plain. Be impressed by Sydney and Melbourne!

Dane said...

I am in awe of everything you have achieved, well done!

Lauren said...

Your hair looks pretty here, the jacket is so classy too. I like how wearable the look is.

I have been exploring a pair of DM's in white - limited edition with flowers. All sold out for now though!!

gawddamn, I had something clever to say but now I've forgotten. I'm sure I'll remember... like by sometime next week, hehe :P

antoinetta said...

"Teg," if you were actually as enlightened and brilliant as you seem to think you are, you'd shut up and stop scrolling through Rumi's comments looking for your name. Get. A. Life.

Anonymous said...

I really don't understand what is wrong with everybody. Kudos Rumi for doing so well with your blog, but you couldn't pay me to wear your outfits. Also your poses always look awkward and really my first impression of you was that you look dirty and used up. I don't like your style at all.

love the boots!
have some secondhand just like them!

Gorgeous clothes and the light is extremly beautiful<3

polkadot (Jill Adams) said...

Great look, great shots (such California light!) & great article. We're seeing a lot of this in London - Doc Martins, flowered frocks, men's tailored jackets (& of course, Kate Moss Topshop) but of course it's different on everyone, and strangely, different in different light. It helps to be quite pretty to start, frankly!

Great blog - glad it's opening all these exciting doors for you!

Yuka said...

in love with this look of yours!

Anonymous said...

i lovee this sooo much...

Jess said...

Hey Rumi, def prefer this look to your most recent ones.

Just wondering your Dr Martens, are they the 8 ups or the 10ups? Loving the boots!

Cheers!

Anonymous said...

love this look and these photos. the first one took my breath away.. i am usually a very critical commenter, but you look radiant in these!

The ScootaBaker said...

You will think I'm mad, or maybe you'll think nothing of it, but I've decided, no I've been forced, to highlight my hair near to the tint of yours. Not because I so much want to experience the "blonde fun" factor. Rather, sadly, to cover my recent sprouting of grays. So so sad. To add insult to injury, it was my colorist who suggested the change. But, looking on the bright side, I will be showing my colorist a lovely photo of your golden locks for inspiration. I'm scared I'll have a head of orange hair, but I must take the chance. Premature graying in your not-late 20's is a hard hereditary gene to swallow.
