STRIPE THE DIFFERENCE


vintage dip dyed lace slip dress, AA stripe l/s tee & socks c/o American Apparel, Romwe two tone leather trench jacket, Zara faux fur leopard bag, Gee Wa Wa from Spanish Moss, vintage Smokey the Bear hat, vintage cross necklace, Mad Lady tribal/peace cuffs, vintage bangles and random rings

You're seriously going to have to pry the Rit dye from my cold dead hands because I can't stop dip dyeing!! I think I did like 10 slips that day...I need help, hehe! 
Okay being that I hate wearing the same thing twice, I thought I mix it up and show you how to wear the same outfit 2 different ways. Which I simply achieved by just tying the stripe tee around my waist for the second look. It's that easy! You can also just wear the slip dress without the jacket for a more grunge feel. 

Which look is your fave?

Sooooo I think I jinxed myself when I said I was feeling 100% cause I am at my worst right now! Sinus infection, sore throat and chest cold plus the cough from hell! I'm literally dying over here, boooooooooo, hisssssssssss! My favorite pass time...running made me sicker for sure. Morning dew and fog is not your friend. So I'm taking a real break, like laying in the bed watching reality shows all day, ODing on medication and chicken soup...lotsa soup!

Love you all and thank you for all the love back...wtf did that make sense?
hahahaha anywho, luvs ya!

REFEREE


(everything thrifted from head to toe except shoes)
vintage 50s band cardi, vintage neon orange cords, vintage B&W stripe referee tee, vintage B&W stripe clutch, Jeffrey Campbell Slovang woodies, white round Lennon sunnies, vintage Smokey the Bear hat, vintage cross necklaces, vintage bangles and random rings

You remember a few post back when I was raving about bold colors for the Fall/Winter? Well this is what I'm talking about. I want some action when I walk down the street. Like I want you to see me from a block away...I want you to say WTF, holy Mary of Satan and chat amongst your friends about me! Ugh I love that!!

You may have seen these cords before, here, but for some reason they pop more with the bolder B&W. I know I'm a bit matchy matchy but it's okay if you do it right. The key to matching is that solids and prints are BFFs. The orange cords and the referee tee could have been worn together alone but the cardi of the same colors pull it all in...like DAMN! Add shades, hat, stripe clutch and a shitload of jewelry!! You know how much I love a good shitload of jewelry? Lol!

So try this look at home with some of your favorite vintage pieces but don't go overboard. A subtle solid pop of color can go a long way and it doesn't have to be the same exact color, it can be in the same color family. I seriously HATE that and don't wear ANY jewelry that the same color you're wearing neither, yuck!! Tacky as fuuuuuck! VOMIT!

Well gotta go and do Mom stuff since the rain has finally stopped! LOVE YOU ALL!!

IT'S A STITCH


Stitch Union polka dot batwing blouse, thrifted red skinnies, vintage leather motorcycle jacket, vintage B&W stripe clutch, Lulu's triple platform buckle wedges wih customized studs by me, white round sunnies, vintage white bow tie, Mad Lady tribal cuff, vintage bangles and random rings

Maybe I'm just crazy but is anyone else OBSESSED with batwing blouses? Like nowadays I feel weird in a "regular" blouse. The sleeves are too tight or the bottom just don't drape right.
Whoever thought of it first...I fucking LOVE you!! You changed my life and I'm never going back.
Blouses, blouses, blouses! I feel like I didn't say it enough before, lol!
What is the least old ladies at lunch term for blouse, hmmm? (Scratching my head!!)

Thank you Stitch Union for the awesome top to add to my crazy obsession!!

Anywho, I'm feeling a whole lot better, almost back at 100% and no more sicky poo! And I think I'm finally used to Joel leaving for long periods of time for work. Cause yesterday did not phase me! Usually I'm like falling on the floor crying but this time I was cool, calm and collected. WEIRD!! I miss my baby but I guess I know he'll be back from Glasgow on the 14th.

Thanks for all the love and I will be forcing my ass to sit down this weekend and answer emails! Here's the thing about emails...I get like 10 a day and by the time I read them, I have 10 more to read the next day. I'm one of those let me answer back from the heart ass mofos! So they just keep getting backed up to the point where it takes me FOREVER to get back to you. I would apologize but that's life!

kiss kiss,
