the mission





(Topshop leather square jacket and boots, BCBG dress, UO satin headband, Target ankle socks, vintage Chanel bag)

There's nothing easier than slipping into a tshirt dress and my dresser drawers are stacked high with them, mostly varying in sheerness and length..so when I saw this one open the BCBG show I kind of fell in lovet. The draped crossover panels are such a cool take on the now ubiquitous sheer pocket tee. Here it is dressed down with leather. I tried to approximate Chanel's Jade nail polish with OPI's Gargantuan Green Grape. Pretty close match and a fun way to throw things off.

This weekend it actually got cold here and I loved it. Going up to West Hollywood tomorrow to shoot the RVCA lookbook again. Should be fun.

Love the dress!

Ganymede Girl said...

I have gargantuan green grape but I don't think it's very close to jade at all, even though it is a nice color. It's way too bright, kind of neon, sometimes it even looks like the sort of color that would glow in the dark. A closer match is OPI 'Hey get in lime' though it's discontinued... maybe they'll really some new similar colors since jade was so popular.

Imke said...

I have a nailpolish from Topshop, one that is pretty close to the Chanel jade one too! And it's soo cheap, so when you run by a topshop some time, you should try that one!

hi Rumi
i have been following you from the beginning...
I just wanted to thank you for having inspired me to start my own blog.

I live in Paris, and I wanted like you to take pictures on me and on stylish people I know but with my personal punk/trash take pn fashion.

Please let me know your opinion about my first post: I am trying to find the right angle, and it is not easy for me to write in english , plus I am not as photogenic as you are !!

love,

m.
ps.
feel free to link me if you think my pictures are woth it.
i still need to figure out how to create a link section !!!

maybe i should invest more in a shirt-dress too. i always find it hard to pick outfits from my wardrobe and am a bit lazy to think about them.

the boots looks great with your outfit. socks with anke boots surely are the most trendy thing now

gah! adore the mini tiers of that jacket. You manage to keep things simple whilst acessorizing, which is quite a feat in my opinion. Every time those topshop boots are worn/photographed I drool. I have been toying with purchasing them, but I am afraid they will sit on my rack because i will FALL ha. How difficult are they to wear? (perhaps this is a silly ? as you clearly are wonderwoman in a platform) but a plus girl, again.

Ohhh god girl your HAIR. I don't hate the fade, but the fact that the headband cuts off the highlight from the natural color... just looks awful. The second photo looks like you're actually wearing a HAT because the top part of your hair is so dark (actually I wish you were wearing a hat/turban thing, I was kind of excited until I saw that it was just your dark hair). Just something to watch out for, maybe?

I do really like the jacket but the rest is just blah.
