Part four

IMG_8876
I have no idea what the mood here is supposed to be, but these all seemed to somehow fit together?
Dad's old copy of Nine Short Stories (REALLY old...seriously, it says 50 cents,) old Coke bottle, Miu Miu shoes, Mini Diana and camera ring from Fred Flare, bracelet from joke shop, and Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle perfume, gift.

the miu miu shoes are perrfeecctt!

AFitz said...

50s Americana? And Chanel? Because 50s housewives probably wore perfume once in a while?
I wanna start a book club with your dad.

Size 4.5?

Ross said...

It looks like "Americana". coke+miu miu=america. or at least it is in the house of ross.

Ahhh my god I've been dying for a pair of Miu Miu shoes with that GORGEOUS sparrow pattern they've been using. I especially love the pink & black ones, seen those?

I have the Lola perfume as well, if you like that you should check out Flowerbomb by Viktor+Rolf, and Parisienne from Yves Saint Laurent!

Reminds me of some retro America-in-South-East-Asia thing. I enjoy this.

Lorena said...

You're so lucky to get your hands on those shoes, are they yours to keep or do you have to send them back?

Hmm they do seem to go together... for me it's because of the design of each of the pieces their shapes, colors and what they are somehow compliment each other. :)

Cool styling!

Jacquelyn said...

THE MOOD IS AMERICA. Haha.

Marcus Design said...

have you read the book? nine stories is one of my absolute favorite books. salinger is best when you're young. if I hadn't started reading him when I was your age, I don't think I would like him now. love these.

Oh, how my dirrty little pawzzz itch, I lust after those particular Miu Miu shoes. The pattern combination is nothing but perfect!

These collages are lovely - and inspiring!

desertöse said...

this is definetely a "lucinda plays hooky in mommy's shoes" mood. and that day made all the difference!

Passport Smiles said...

These Miu Mius are my favorite out of all the ones you've shown. So these plus a coca cola and reading Nine Stories--sounds like a perfect day.

The Bambina said...

Love all the colors! I'm feeling retro with a touch of classicism.

Radical Face said...

Anonymous said...

i think it reminds me of touristness.with the coke bottle and the bracelet being say a soovenier.then the camera.and the background is almost a map.there that is the theme tourist.i would love it if you could look at my blog.xx

kate cait sith said...

Americana? The Miu Miu shoes have a red, white, and blue thematic palette.

Anonymous said...

Love the miu miu shoes
I think a vintage-y old people feel? The lighting really helps set the mood too, although it probably wasn't intentional.

Taylor Sterling said...

oh those shoes are my dream and I look everywhere to get them. Love this shot!

Hannah M. said...

It seems very late 1960's, early 1970's to me! I like the mix :)

LalaLaurynnn said...

Those shoes are insaneeee :)!!!! This gives me the feel of being inside an antique shop. I think it's the lighting...

Mi Armario En Ruinas said...

Cherie said...

those miu miu shoes are heavenly. did i mention how unfair it is that you have even HAD miu miu in your presence?

Unknown said...

hi,

This blog is a great place, love, love, love:))
But I have a question. Where did the idea of a blog?
Did it address the impact of a musical Hairspray?

Feel me

_CocoBon said...

oh god. you have miu miu's shoes.

seriously: i'm fucking jelaous of you.

Jinnyd said...

Love it! Maybe the mood is old-meets-new? With the old book and the old Coke bottle (ah, the pre-plastic days...), juxtaposed (is that the right word? only one I can think of right now) by the NEW Miu Miu shoes that sort-of have a futuristic-y feel to them.

Also the shoes themselves, which have the futuristic black shape on top of what (I think) seems to be a vintage-beige-ish pattern on the bottom.

Just the very, VERY, VERYVERYVERY amateur thoughts of someone totally new to this stuff.

Jinnyd said...

Also--the colors fit together quite nicely!

Louise said...

those shoes are unbelievably super duper cute !!!!! can people please visit my blog because otherwise i'm just talking to myself which is slightly alarming !!!!!

I like this one the best because you're not sure of why it goes...there is no forcing everything together. Loves.

Lulah said...

haha Afitz I was just joking ... its pretty much my favourite book so it just irritated me a little (:

Emilie said...

NINE STORIES. Best thing (to me) in this whole assortment of things. This isn't intended to be offensive. Book are a big win though ha.

cancercowboy said...

yep, looks kinda vintage to me too. throw in a little sand, add some sunglasses and a straw hat - Zing - you can feel the breeze. and even the sun, 'cause all these different colours create a somewhat kaleidoscopic effect.
your tableau could very well illustrate a background scene from "Bananafish", though with these shoes nobody would stay in the background for too long, i guess ^__^

MELISSA Z. said...

Great pic! Love these Miu Miu shoes soooo much!

frida said...

I ♥ the miu miu shoes!!!!!

zhila said...

That book is called "Nine Stories" (not "Nine Short Stories") and is excellent. Almost as good as the Miu Miu platforms.

Dmitriy said...

Lulah - no hard feelings, it's my fave too! i have a zine called bananafishsticks and fries (don't ask)

Unknown said...

I have that same copy of "Nine Stories" and it used to belong to my dad before I stole it. It's missing half the page of "A Perfect Day for Bananafish." I suppose it's high time to buy a new copy and find out what happened.
Also the shoes. OMG THE SHOES.
