Dust in the Wind

Cardigan - Vintage / Romper - Again / Boots - Chloe Sevigny x Opening Ceremony

I close my eyes
Only for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes a curiosity

Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
- Kansas

Utah! Here is our next stop on our road trip.... it was visually beautiful!
So much land and earth all around you.
Living LA, I forget about all this beauty at times so it as nice to re visit....
I am wearing a romper by one of my favorite lines Again.
The designer Amber is brilliant and I love her creations, I'm lucky to own a few of her pieces!
Happy Tuesday!

Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel

Yeah, back at the Roadhouse they got some bungalows 
And that's for the people 
Who like to go down slow

First off!!!
I hope everyone had an Amazing Holiday weekend celebrating Thanksgiving!
My bf Derek and I took ourselves on a little road trip to see both of our families.
First stop - Arizona!
These were taken in Quartzsite, AZ
Quartzsite is an awesome place where you will find your self roaming for hours looking at all kinda of beautiful stones, semi precious gems and collectibles!
I knew it was going to be warm in AZ so I wore my shorts for the trip and for some reason I found it fitting to pair with a denim top as well!

Shirts - Vintage GnR / Jacket - LF / Skirt - AA / Boots - Chloe Sevigny x Opening Ceremony 
Jewelry - F21

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you
I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure
But you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now

Said woman take it slow
It'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said sugar make it slow
And we'll come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
Patience, patience, patience
Ooh, oh, yeah
- Guns n' Roses

We are still putting the finishing touches on our new apt
and this is one of my favorite walls.... I love the dark wood panels with the white walls.
We scored the cow skull at the rose bowl flea mkt and got it for a steal!
I have been lusting over this new jacket I found at LF and will I will be wearing it a lot this winter.
I feel very Axl Rose...
Hope everyone has a great Holiday weekend....!

Only Happy When it Rains

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Sweater Cape - H&M / Dress - LF / Boots - Dr Martins

I'm only happy when it rains 
I feel good when things are going wrong 
I only listen to the sad, sad songs 
I'm only happy when it rains 

I only smile in the dark 
My only comfort is the night gone black 
I didn't accidentally tell you that 
I'm only happy when it rains 
You'll get the message by the time I'm through 
When I complain about me and you 
I'm only happy when it rains 
- Garbage


When it rains it pours, that is exactly how the weather was all day yesterday.
I'm really loving my Dr Martins at the moment especially on days like this...
They are the perfect shoe to toughen up even the sweetest of dresses like mine above!

Sweater - Threadsence / Shorts - UO /  Jacket - Nasty Gal / Socks - F21 / Shoes - JS

Well, it's been ten years and maybe more since I first set eyes on you.
The best years of my life gone by, here I am alone and blue.
Some people cry and some people die by the wicked ways of love;
But I'll just keep on rollin' along with the grace of the Lord above.



People talkin' all around 'bout the way you left me flat,
I don't care what the people say, I know where their jive is at.
One thing I do have on my mind, if you can clarify please do,
It's the way you call me by another guy's name when I try to make love to you.
I try to make love but it ain't no use.
Give it to me
Give it

- Led Zeppelin

I love love this take on a Varsity type sweater...
The rips and off the shoulder update the sweater and make it a must have!
I wanted to pair it with a chunky 70's platform to give it a more dazed and confused vibe.... to get a similar shoe go here.
The shag jacket & denim cut offs are the perfect way to finish off this look!

He's in love with rock'n'roll, whoa
He's in love with gettin' stoned, whoa
He's in love with Janie Jones, whoa
But he don't like his boring job, no

He's in love with rock'n'roll, whoa
He's in love with gettin' stoned, whoa
He's in love with Janie Jones, whoa
But he don't like his boring job, no
And he knows what he's got to do, he knows, he's gonna have fun with you, you lucky lady
And he knows when the evening comes when his job done is done he'll be over in his car for you
- Clash

I love mixing and matching vintage with new pieces....
And this outfit shows it!
I paired my vintage harley tank with my new polka dot skirt from LF and paired them with my tall 
Doc Martins which give the look a bit of a rock n roll punk vibe.

Happy Hump Day!

Top - LF / Skirt - Mink Pink from LuLu's / Hat - Vintage / Boots - Alexander Wang / Necklace - UO

Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City's the place where they said
"Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side"

Sugar plum fairy came and hit the streets
Lookin' for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo, you should've seen 'em go go go
They said, "Hey sugar, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
- Lou Reed

Since animal print is still on the rage right now especially in maxi skirts,
this one by Mink Pink is my favorite from LuLu's!
I love it because it is so wearable, it sits high on waist, has pockets and the material is perfect for Fall!
The shaggy crop top and Wang boots are the perfect pieces to finish off the look!
Happy Tuesday!

Well, she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin'
That there was as little more to life somewhere else

After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
And if she had to die tryin'

O yeah, all right
Take it easy, baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl 
-Tom Petty

Seriously, how Amazing is this studded denim jacket??!!
I was dying when I spotted it at LF and on one of their Trend Reports...
I knew it had to be mine and I'm so happy I now own it.
It will be that one special piece that you throw on over any outfit and look effortless!
Oh and did you see that amazing cuff I'm wearing?
It was a surprise from my bf, he made it himself and carved 
Olive Juice, on it....
 I definitely have myself a keeper!

Jacket - Nasty Gal / Top - LF / Jeans - RVCA / Boots - Steve Madden / Jewelry - F21

Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain,
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the brain
Got no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the door.
Got a date, can't be late for the high hopes hailla ball.

Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar.
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more.
Singing about the good things and the sun that lights the day.
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost its way.
- Led Zeppelin

I am obsessed with this shag jacket!!
I love the colors in it, it makes it easy to pair with pretty much anything.
The shag gives any outfit a nice rock n roll vibe...
