living in lover

01/08/2009, General





(Lover top, Forever 21 necklace, secondhand Calvin Klein shorts, Aldo boots)




(same top and shorts, Chanel mirrored wedges)

Top of the week. As in wore it every day. I haven’t embraced this peasant blouse loving side of me for a while but this thing is just perfect. Say hi to Bijou, the cat that never appears in photographs because he hates being touched almost as much as he hates being anywhere but on top of the fridge or under the bed. But about one morning a week he wakes us up in the most loving and sweet way possible and even does us the honor of making fur to skin contact. Strange animal.

I’m not sure how many of you will remember how well I loved my blue Nine West knockoffs of these Chanels but I scored them for a killer deal on eBay from the same girl that sold me the Balenciagas..I simultaneously think she’s insane for letting them go and that I could not possibly thank her enough for doing so. But yeah just ignore the bird crap reflecting off of them in the photo. Cats > birds.

pounding the pavement

(Ray-ban aviators, vintage metal/mesh dress over vintage slipdress, Balenciaga platform sandals)

Through sheer luck I stumbled across these legendary SS07 Balenciagas on eBay last week. I don’t know if it’s just me but shoes are just looking more and more the same thing with a couple extra straps allocated here or there, but even a couple years after their release these still have that extra something special to me. The Birkenstock-style sole and massive platform just kill me. After a 15 minute battle with the buckle (really um unique and secure design job there) and an hour or so of baby deer-like steps they’ve proven really walkable.

Aside from that, it’s a million degrees and I need to go find a pool or slither down to the beach now.
