I love the idea of a classic picnic in the country.

Aviation....

So went to Joe Fresh today, well technically went to the grocery store which housed Joe Fresh. Found a few things, only bought one. A pair of baggy, cargo/aviation type pants. They look great with boots, and into the spring months, I can wear them with flats on not so cold days!































Worn with an American Apparel acid wash v-neck (softest t-shirt you will ever own), and Blundstone boots, they are the "Rigger" - totally waterproof leather, and super easy to wear.



Another thing I snagged today was this fur vest from winners, it was only $25, apparently the original price was $175 or something. Worn with my Gap alpaca cardigan, Gap bleached skinny jeans, and loads of bangles.The vest is dark brown, but it kind of looks black in these pictures. I am looking forward to wearing it WITH my aviation pants! WOOHOO.















That's all for now folks, chinese food and a fine french cake awaits me!

second time around

So I have big shoulders. I'm talking strangers commenting asking if I am a swimmer or something, big. I was a gymnast so I did need them, and I am pretty proud of my manly-ness, in a kind of love-hate way. ANYWAYS, where I am going with this is that this jacket masks my big shoulders by being bigger and puffier than they are, so it just looks like the jacket and not me that are big! Basically, this vintage jacket is wonderful, I love the length it is cropped to, just perfect for wearing it with high-waisted skirts. The tag says it is by Marcam. That's all I know because the rest of the tags are worn out.
The shoulder construction is so well done, it is a great jacket for serious! The Bracelet is from mom's old stuff! It is just too cool for school in my humble opinion.                                                    So yeah, talk to you later alligators! xo

Fur is fun, but the faux kind is my most desirable... I just need to find some pieces like these that are not previously owned by a little bunny or something.

I want a cape... SO BAD!
Just a lovely wool, dark blue, purple or green one, with slits where my hands come out. Some leather gloves and my leopard print fuzzy hat, and poof! Insta-glam!!!
