Shadow Play

Tank & Shorts - Vintage / Purse - Cambridge Satchel / Bracelets - Brandy Melville

To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,

To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you,

I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you,

In a room with a window in the corner I found truth.

- Joy Division

I was so excited to finally receive my much awaited new purse from Cambridge!

I first spotted this beautiful bag on my friend Megan who had it in a daring fluorescent pink.

I loved how it looks so classic and structured!

Oh and the best part... you can get something embossed if you like.

I got my initials....

Sara

Dress - Mink Pink c/o Lulu's / Shoes - JC

Wait a minute baby. . .
Stay with me awhile
Said you'd give me light
But you never told me about the fire

Drowning in the sea of love
Where everyone would love to drown
And now it's gone
It doesn't matter anymore
When you build your house
Call me home

And he was just like a great dark wing
Within the wings of a storm
I think I had met my match--he was singing
And undoing the laces
Undoing the laces

- Stevie Nicks

I've been eyeing this dress for a bit...

Perfect for music festivals, frolicking on the beach or a sexy dinner date.

Sweater - Vintage / Sheer Blouse - Again / Slip - H&M / Boots - Alexander Wang  

Necklace - Vanessa Mooney

Thinking back, thinking of you
Summertime, think it was June
Yeah, think it was June

Laying back, head on the grass
Chewing gum, having some laughs
Yeah, having some laughs

You made me feel like the one
You made me feel like the one, the one
You made me feel like the one
You made me feel like the one, the one
- Stereophonics


Happy Wednesday....

American Woman

Dress & Jewelry - Brandy Melville

American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come knockin' around my door
Don't wanna see your shadow no more

Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, I said get away
American woman, listen what I say
-Lenny Kravitz

Continued....

Here are a couple more shots from the Brandy Melville shoot. 

This show was so fun to shoot, I was running up and down the street with the american flag.

I love that we added the lolita heart sunglasses.... reminds me of the movie True Romance.

Happy Monday!

Dance, Dance, Dance

Clothes - Brandy Melville / Denim Shorts - Mink Pink / Shoes - Jeffrey Campbell

having trouble telling
how i feel
but i can dance, dance, dance
couldn't possibly tell you
how i mean
but i can dance, dance, dance

so when i trip on my feet
look at the beat
the words are
written in the sand
when i'm shaking my hips
look for the swing
the words are
written in the air

- Lykke Li

I'm so excited to share with you all a little sneak peak of a look book

I did with Brandy Melville!

I will post the rest of it when it goes live...

To see my behind the scenes pics and interview go here....

Somebody That I Used to Know

Jewelry - Vanessa Mooney, Kiki de Montparnasse, Tiffanys, Derek Jaymes & Vintage pieces

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

- Gotye

I feel naked without wearing all my rings and I am constantly on the look for adding to my collection...

I've been lusting over my newest pieces by Vanessa Mooney

(which is the stone ring, medallion necklace & boney bracelet)

Wolf Like Me

Jacket - Nasty Gal / Top - Vintage / Booties - Elizabeth & James

My mind's aflame

We could jet in a stolen car
but I bet we wouldn't get too far
before the transformation takes
and bloodlust tanks and
crave gets slaked

My mind has changed
my body's frame but god I like it
my hearts aflame
my body's strained but god I like it

My mind has changed
my body's frame but god I like it
my hearts aflame
my body's strained but god I like it

- TV on the Radio

Happy Monday...!

Hope you all had a great weekend.

 I pretty much lived in this jacket ever since I got it in the mail on friday..!

Army of Me

Dress - Dress by Bic / Cuff - Derek Jaymes

You're alright

There's nothing wrong

Self-sufficience please!

And get to work.

And if you complain once more

You'll meet an army of me

And if you complain once more

You'll meet an army of me

Army of me

- Bjork

So...

I was cleaning out my closet and came out across this long lost beauty of a dress...

And as you can see the draping of this dress is insane!

I'm thinking I will be needing to wear this out sooner than later and

pairing it with my new leather jacket...

Happy Friday the 13th... Be safe...

What it Takes

Top - Pac Sun / Shorts - Omen Eye / Boots - JC

There goes my old girlfriend, there's another diamond ring
And, uh, all those late night promises I guess they don't mean a thing
So baby, what's the story? Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you don't look back I guess the feelings start to fade away.
I used to feel your fire
But now it's cold inside
And you're back on the street like you didn't miss a beat, yeah

Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was
good in your life to the toss of the dice?
Tell me what it takes to let you go.

- Aerosmith

The weather has been permitting for me to kick it in my short shorts....

And these are one of my fav pairs by the talented little mis Alana of Omen Eye!

She kills it when it comes to re constructing denim shorts!

And of course my staple boot at the moment is my Jeffrey Campbell Tardy....

Blurry

Jacket - Nasty Gal / Shirt - Thailand / Leather Pants - Helmut Lang 

 Shoes - Jeffrey Campbell c/o LuLu's

Every thing's so blurry
And everyone's so fake
And everybody's empty
And everything is so messed up
Preoccupied without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl

You could be my someone
You could be my scene
You know that I'll protect you
From all of the obscene
I wonder what your doing?
Imagine where you are?
There's oceans in between us
But that's not very far

- Puddle of Mudd

These are my go to leather pants.... I absolutely love them!

Of course they cost a pretty penny, but sometimes we need to spend a bit more on the items that will become staple pieces.

I like pairing them with my JC Dresden's because they make the leather a bit more fun and flirty...

Then the ombre shag helps pull the look together!

Blackberry

Dress - Threadsence / Boots - Dolce Vita / Purse - Shoe Dazzle

Hey Blackberry, How you taste so sweet
Hey Blackberry, tell me what you see
Tell me is it interesting
Hey Blackberry pay some attention to me
Hey Blueberry look at my bumblebee
Hey Blueberry you know he never stings
And he only hums for me

I need some L-O-V-E-N to make me happy
You got to be L-you-see-K-why to git
With a girl like Blackberry

Hey my cherry,coming up my street
Hey my cherry, you make it hard to breath
Look what you've done to me
Hey my cherry, be sure to keep your nose clean

- Black Crowes

Sometimes less is more and that is what I love about this outfit!

I have the not so basic black dress on paired it with a brown motorcycle type boot....

It helps keep the dress casual and easy to wear!
