i am too flustered to type something witty here





I have to be zippity pipsqueekity quick here and not write too much. The bloody perfectionist I am will probably type more about her day here later, because I can't stand to have a post that is hardly words (unless it's an inspiration post, I like the pictures to speak for themselves) but I am on a CLOCK HEREZ.

Basically I woke up this morning and decided to dress opposite my mood and usual disposition. It felt a little too girly in the end though, so I added my Docs.

EDIT: You knew I would write more here later, right? So my mom told me a neat-o story after seeing this outfit. She was born, grew up, and went to school in Norway, and when she was in her early twenties she made a dress that was bright pink and wore it everywhere, actually overwore it to a point where it became just rags. At that time in her neighborhood everyone was very uniform and wore all black, so she stood out like a sore thumb and became known as "the girl in the pink dress." Kind of like when Becky Bloomwood fantasizes about being "the girl in the Denny & George scarf", right? Sophie Kinsella, anyone....? Anyways, perhaps I get my love for pink and ability to block out rude stares from her.
And that was my story.

Vintage Dr. Martens. American Apparel kneesocks. Claire's belt. Everything else is some form of secondhand.

I love this outfit, but that's nothing new. I can't believe I'm warming up to floral Docs but you wear them so well its hard not to.

Syed said...

The colours of your outfit against the snow look stunning! Love the pale pinks.

Wow.

Outrageouschaos said...

Yeah! This outfit made me happy.

Min said...

Regarding your last post: Uggs are ridiculous, everyone on my campus has them, and the worst part is finding all the knock-off Uggs-wearers. I'm surprised the trend has trickled down to the middle-school crowd as well.

Hi........I guess you have a lot of stuff on your hands.... but if you do read this, i would like to say what a crazy unique style. I am 12 years old and i made a blog, about my style too. Not totally vintage, but i wear some of my moms vintage clothes some times. "Music to your ears!" Just joking. By the way i love your outfits, every single one i been able to see. well if you have time come to my blog. I just started. Hey maybe you can give my some pointers! You don't have to it's just a suggestion.

Love you stuff,

Emy Augustus said...

The mozart tee just ties everything together. or maybe everything pink and lacy just draws attention to the tee, but whatever, basically, i really really like the mozart tee.

Emily said...

Okay the Mozart tee is fabulous.
That is all.

Love the outfit

You know the amazing series of books about the 6 year old girl who lives in tha plaza? (She was raaaaahhhhhhhther mature however , like you) I adore your floral docs almost as much as I adore my navy blue velvet ones with ribbon laces.

I love the artisticness of the sixth shot!
Great outfit - yes, it's girly, but it's not airheadedly so.
And Becky Bloomwood is exactly whom I thought of after reading your anecdote :)

Anonymous said...

Wow, I just stumbled upon your blog and it's amazing! Haha, I love your connection w/ the confessions of the shopoholic books, can't get enough of those. Have you read them all? I hope the movie lives up to the book, not that any do. Well anyways, I love your blog, keep up the great work(:

Isabel said...

Wow, you pull off pink + lace like nobody's business! The Mozart tee is my favourite touchm though. Its great!

Chloe said...

Girlie Dress + Doc Martens/Converse = The BEST.

Anonymous said...

I love Becky Bloomwood. I can't wait for a book about Minnie Brandon. However I think the movie looks terrible. They made her American! They also combined like 3 books into one and left out all of the good parts. yuck

Tavi said...

I totally agree. The humor is very British, you can't make her American! Also Luke in the movie looks like a pedophile, just sayin...

Unknown said...

I'm extremely wild about this color combination at the moment!

Tanya/Tikay/Tati said...

Love your blog and Hope you'll continue.

(Sorry for my bad english, i'm fench!)

sloane said...

Katie said...

Hullo. 8D
I was just looking at old posts - I'm new to your blog - an anywayyzzzzzz....
I sot of adore this outfit and all of the photos.
They're slightly amazing.

Rose said...

This is my favorite so far, which is wierd, because its SO PINK. Maybe its because you look a little out of place in it, there's this awkwardness contrasting with the wildly pretty outfit that just makes it really fresh. Anyway. You're rad. I'm totally blog-stalking you.

Eléonore said...
