Nylon Japan!

Lace Dress, Shorts & Bustier - Vintage / Shoes - Chloe

So.... I finally found it!
My feature in Nylon Japan Best Blogger Issue!
These were taken right before Coachella this year and as you can tell I was already dressing the part.
I love all the different shades of white and the lace over the denim give it a fresh look.
These pics make me want it to be summer already.....

Street Fighting Man

Dress - City of Dolls / Tee - Vintage / Vest - LF Stores / Boots - Dolce Vita / Sunnies - Dita

Pures - Marc Jacobs

Everywhere I hear the sound of marching, charging feet, boy

Cause summers here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy

But what can a poor boy do

Except to sing for a rock n roll band

Cause in sleepy london town

There's just no place for a street fighting man

No

Hey! think the time is right for a palace revolution

But where I live the game to play is compromise solution

Well, then what can a poor boy do

Except to sing for a rock n roll band

Cause in sleepy london town

There's no place for a street fighting man

No

- Rolling Stones

Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!

I went to the flea mkt yesterday and found some amazing additions for the new place,

I can't wait to get it all together so I can post photos for you to all see....

This dress I am wearing is one of my favorites to throw on, but It was a bot colder so I knew I had to add some layers. I went for the vintage tee and the shearling vest to complete the look!

Wind of Change

Overalls - F21 / Flannel - Vintage / Under Tee - Gap / Boots - Chloe Sevigny x Opening Ceremony

The world is closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future's in the air
Can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
- Scorpions


These are the last of our road trip photos...
We spent the night at a cabin right across from Fish Lake, Utah
It was gorgeous, COLD but beautiful.
I felt my overalls & flannel were beyond perfect for this setting.
Happy Friday and I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Small Town

Sweater - LF / Thermal - City of Dolls / Pants - UO / Boots - Jeffrey Campbell

Educated in a small town
Taught to fear Jesus in a small town
Used to daydream in that small town
Another born romantic that's me

But I've seen it all in a small town
Had myself a ball in a small town
Married an L.A. doll and brought her to this small town
Now she's small town just like me

No I cannot forget where it is that I come from
I cannot forget the people who love me
Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town
And people let me be just what I want to be
- John Mellencamp


Now, I thought I was from a small town but I was wrong when Derek
took me to the part of Utah where his grandparents live!
It is so cute and everyone knows each other kinda like a Mayberry town!
Now it was freeezing so if my nose looks likes Rudolph the reindeer, thats why....
I have been lusting over these Tripp pants since I saw them at Urban Outfitters.
Of course they didn't have my size at first so I was surprised when i found them.
Pairing them with my JC shoes gives them the old school punk feel.

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!

Roadhouse Blues

Cardigan - UO / Denim Shirt & Belt - H&M / Shorts - DIY / Boots - Dolce Vita / Sunnies - Dita

Yeah, keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel 
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel 
Yeah, we're goin' to the Roadhouse 
We're gonna have a real 
Good time 

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

- Doors

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!

Patience

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

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!

Heartbreaker

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!

Janie Jones

Tank - Vintage / Cardigan - Gift from Hong Kong / Skirt - LF / Boots - Dr. Martins / Necklaces - F21
Suspenders - UO

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!
