I'm starting this blog mainly so i can look back in a few years time and say "ahh...to be young and free of inhibitions". Or alternatively, "What was I thinking!!!!" So to start with, here's what i wore today.
This crazy coat was an ebay purchase. It's a vintage piece from Bob Mackie's "wearable art" collection. As silly as it may be, it is perhaps the best quality garment i own. Really, the finishing on it is unbelievable, and it's really nice silk. I think you've got to really appreciate it in the flesh.
I had intended to go out with the sole purpose of going to the doctors for a script, but there was a 2 and a half hour wait which prompted me to go explore the local op-shops where i found this lovely 70's lace dress. I apologise for the "squat" photos, but i'm only just getting the hang of this self timer camera thing, and couldn't find a way to fit my full profile in to the shot...that is unless i squatted. I'm wearing my look alike chloe lace-up ankle boots with the dress. I think they help give the outfit a bit of a victorian doll vibe. I found some other great pieces at the op shop, which I'm sure will be featured at some point...look out for my new elephant top (much more subdued than my zebra top). Maybe i'll start a native african animal collection...or maybe I already subconsciously have. Stay tuned...
