Hello, I Love You

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Dress - Vintage / Boots - JC

Hello, I love you 
Won't you tell me your name? 
Hello, I love you 
Let me jump in your game 
Hello, I love you 
Won't you tell me your name? 
Hello, I love you 
Let me jump in your game 

She's walking down the street 
Blind to every eye she meets 
Do you think you'll be the guy 
To make the queen of the angels sigh? 

Hello, I love you 
Won't you tell me your name? 
Hello, I love you 
Let me jump in your game 
Hello, I love you 
Won't you tell me your name? 
Hello, I love you 
Let me jump in your game 

She holds her head so high 
Like a statue in the sky 
Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long 
When she moves my brain screams out this song 
- The Doors

More from Paris!!
Going to the graves was so cool and being able to see Jim Morrison's grave was pretty exciting for me as well.
There were so many people that came there to see him and someone was playing some of his music from there cell phone which was an awesome touch to the experience.....
The weather was perfect so I was so happy to be able to wear my maxi dress sans a sweater or coat.
I love how this very 90's dress (which is from Contempo!) looks with these very chunky boots by Jeffrey Campbell. 
It's almost kind of witchy... and in a good way!

Sea of Love

Jacket - Nasty Gal / Dress - Slip / Boots - Dolce Vita / Necklace - Vanessa Mooney

Come with me my love
To the sea
The sea of love
I want to tell you
How much I love you

Do you remember
When we met?
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you
How much I love you

I have always had a thing for vintage slips especially when they are wearable.
They are so delicate and easy to wear.
You can wear them casual (as I did above) or throw on your best
 sky high heels, red lipstick and then you will be ready to hit the town, old Hollywood glamour style!
As you know I have to always roughen up my more girlyish pieces of clothing...
So I added some bad ass boots that are half leather/half suede which play up this dress to perfection.
Lastly throwing on my go to leather jacket and rosary type necklace.
If you don't own any of Vanessa Mooney's jewelry then go now and get some she has the best!
If you look at all my other posts you will see that I am always wearing her pieces...

Do You Realize?

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Shirt Dress - 5 Preview / Boots - Alexander Wang / Sunnies - Ray Ban / Belt - Vintage

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
- The Flaming Lips

It's no secret that I love denim!
denim jeans, overalls, tops and jackets....
This over sized shirt dress is denim done right in a dress style.
Denim can easily be over done when it comes to dresses
but...
New Swedish 5 Preview nailed it with this piece from their Shoreline collection!
Keeping it super short is key that way you are not swimming in denim.
To add my own little touch I added a low slung vintage belt and black boots.

Janie's Got a Gun

Overalls - Vintage / Bra Top & Hat - UO / Shoes - JC 
 Jewelry - Vanessa Mooney, Younger Young & Black Oak

Dum, dum, dum, honey what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum it's the sound of my gun.
Dum, dum, dum, honey what have you done?
Dum, dum, dum it's the sound

Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her whole world's come undone
From lookin' straight at the sun
What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
They said when Janie was arrested 
they found him underneath a train
But man, he had it comin' Now that Janie's got a gun 
she ain't never gonna be the same.
- Aerosmith

I have been wanting a pair of overalls for quite a bit now....
So when I saw these at our local flea market I was stoked!
I love the oversize look and feel to them.
I chose to pick a lace bra crop top to go underneath to keep it young and sexy...

Peaceful Easy Feeling

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Top - Brandy Melville / Skirt - Vintage / Shoes - Miista
Necklace - Vintage / Rings - Younger Young & Vintage

And I found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul.
Oh, but she can't take you anyway,
You don't already know how to go.

And I got a peaceful easy feeling,
And I know you won't let me down
'cause I'm already standing on the ground
- The Eagles

My favorite thing about the weekends are Sundays!
Reason why is because my bf and I try to hit up a flea markets where I hunt to find one of a kind pieces...
Like, this suede skirt!
I saw it from a mile away and knew it had to be mine.
I love it!
 It's a bit 60's rock n roll... very Penny Lane!
Because the skirt is so amazing I kept the rest of the outfit simple
a white crop top, turquoise jewelry and some black clogs!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

I'm a Lady

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Top - Naven / Skirt - Vintage / Boots - JC / Necklace - St Eve / Bracelet - BCBGeneration
Ring - Karen London

Now, won't you run and tell your boyfriend?
Tell him, don't hold his breath for me
I've got some money I was saving
Got some hearts that I'll be breaking
Know someday they'll make a martyr out of me
I know someday they'll make a martyr out of me

She's so fine

And I like sometimes to wave it high
Up where everyone can see, I'm a lady
Got my mind made up
Got my mind made up
- Santigold

Spring is here...!
Well... almost we have had such lousy weather in LA.
But that is not stopping me from wearing my spring colors.
I love this bright peachy color, it brightens up any ol' outfit.
I went ahead and paired it with a vintage print to give it a bit more edge....
Have a good weekend!

High and Dry

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Dress - Spanish Moss / Belt - Vintage / Boots - Sam Edelman / Rings - Vanessa Mooney & Vintage



Two jumps in a week
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle,
Watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition,
Kill yourself to never ever stop
You broke another mirror,
You're turning into something you are not

Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
- Radiohead


All right folks it's countdown time for fun, music and hopefully sun!
 Coachella!
I wanted to post an outfit that was inspired by music festivals.
This Spanish Moss dress is pretty much perfect for them...
With its awesome bell sleeves that will flow with the music while you dance around with your hands over your head, to it's mini shift style body.
Which allows you to pair with flat booties so you can walk for days and your feet won't hate you!
I love the belt with the dress too because it gives it a bit more style.
All in all it's a perfect go to outfit for such the occasion!

Californication

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Tee - Vintage / Jeans - c/o BCBG Generation / Shoes - Jeffrey Campbell x LF
Sunnies - Sabre / Bracelets & Rings - Brandy Melville

Marry me girl be the fairy to my world
Be my very won constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It?s Californication

Space may be the final frontier
But it?s made in a Hollywood basement
And Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singing songs off station to station
And Alderon?s not far away
It?s Californication
- Red Hot Chillipeppers

Pastels!!!
I can not get enough of them...
The light and airiness of the color is just so spot on for spring!
Pairing it with my cropped vintage California tee and my sky high platforms,
keeps my look fresh, fun and flirty!
I'm most definitely ready for a road trip in my outfit!


Oh and if you are an LA native come shop some of your favorite bloggers closets this Sunday!

Psychotic Girl

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Jacket - Vintage / Tank & Necklace - Brandy Melville / Shorts - UO / Boots - Givenchy

I heard you threw your man around
Pick him up just to let him down
It's a shame, baby, but I always knew
Just the way you're gonna do, oh

Oh no
Just a psychotic girl
And I won't get lost in your world

Friday night in the party lights
You were acting like everything was alright
Till later on with no one around
Had me fighting for air, laying on the ground, oh no

- The Black Keys


Happy Friday... Have an Amazing weekend!

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

Happy Wednesday....
