randoms!

here are some random outfit photos until i take some new ones, hopefully
this weekend.

some of these are really old (the chunky gray sweater should clue you in...)
"going grocery shopping/running errands" outfits. others (like the third
one down) never actually made it out the door - they were "would this outfit
work in real life?" test shots. mostly these pictures just fell through the
cracks and never got a dedicated post.

jersey girl

Rick Owens Lilies jersey is the perfect thing to wear in the summer - drapey,
soft, thin, and comfortable. i've gotten by with the few pieces i own, but i
think it might be time to add to my collection - especially if this "hottest
july on record" trend continues.

Photobucket
Rick Owens Lilies wide-leg pants (old, from eBay); T by Alexander Wang tank
(old, from Petulia's Folly/Philly); Free People lace bandeau; Matt Bernson
gladiator sandals; sword pendant (from etsy.com)



Photobucket
Gucci t-shirt (super old, from eBay); Rick Owens Lilies skirt (old, from
Century21/NYC i think?); Alaia laceup heels (old, from yoox.com); Luxirare
"consolidated" bracelet (from shopluxirare.com)



as you can see, i was channeling my inner Carrie Bradshaw with the latter
look. if you do not have perfect washboard abs like she does (i'm still working
on mine!) i recommend hiding your bellybutton and showing just a sliver of skin
when wearing cropped tops - makes it a bit classier, in my humble opinion.

white out

'twas another scorcher last sunday...

Photobucket

in addition to the air conditioning on full blast, sometimes i leave this
vertical fan on to simulate a gentle breeze. if i could i would buy one of those
ocean sound machines and hibernate in my apartment until wintertime!

you may remember this skirt from my awesome haul last year. i finally got
around to hemming it. i didn't actually cut any material off - i just folded it
and sewed a few stitches to keep it in place, just in case i change my mind
later on and decide i prefer it knee-length.

Theory tank; vintage necklace (very old, from Greenflea Market/NYC);
R.E.D. Valentino skirt (from Intermix sample sale/NYC); Giuseppe Zanotti
