Radioactive

Dress - Reformation / Jacket - Blk Denim / Jewelry - Vanessa Mooney / Boots - Dolce Vita

I'm waking up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust
I'm breathing in the chemicals

I'm breaking in, shaping up, then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse
Whoa

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive

I raise my flags, don my clothes
It's a revolution, I suppose
We're painted red to fit right in
Whoa

I'm breaking in, shaping up, then checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse
Whoa

- Imagine Dragons

I don't even know where to begin with expressing how much I LOVE this dress!

It has become one of my wardrobe staples along with my new leather jacket...

Which I've been pairing with everything as you can tell from my last post!

Haha!

There She Goes

Jumper - Phelby / T Shirt - City of Dolls / Boots - Dolce Vita / Hat - UO

I, I do declare, I was surprised to see you stay
Only to be betrayed
By the one you gave all your love and trust to

And tell me how could I let go?
Since I caught a glimpse of your immense soul
You were dancing to northern soul
Just one glance, ah well, you know

There she goes, a little heartache
There she goes, a little pain
Make no mistake she sheds her skin like a snake
On the dirty road to fame, dirty road to fame

My love, now oh, there she goes, a little heartache
There she goes, a little pain
Make no mistake, sheds her skin like a snake
You're going to walk the plank again, walk the plank again
My love, now

- Babyshambles

Simple does it....

When I first saw this jumper it was a must have for me...

I just love how short it is, which gives you legs for days.

There is also something so lolita about them, maybe that is why I like them so much...?

Today I was in a simple kinda mood so I paired it with a plain white tee and some serious boots!

I am looking forward to wearing a band tee and chucks as well with the piece AND a sheer button up with sky high heels...

Oh the possibilities!

Runaway Train

Dress - Evil Twin / Boots - Dolce Vita / Jewelry - Vanessa Mooney

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep there's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

Runaway train, never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
- Soul Asylum


On the way back from Tahoe we had 
been driving on the scenic route which is quite deserted...
And we saw the dirt road that led us to this train track.
Which I thought looked so amazing since there is nothing else around!
We hopped out and snapped some quick shots,
I was wearing this Evil Twin dress and I though it was so fitting with deserted area. They are both some what dangerous and that is what I wanted to capture..

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
- Cat Power
(originally by Phil Phillips)

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...

Black

Sweater & Bra - Forrest & Bob / Pants - Chick with Guns / Tank - LF / Boots - Dolce Vita

Purse - Alexander Wang / Belt - Vintage / Necklace - Vanessa Mooney

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did.
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
- Pearl Jam


Please meet my new friend Mr. Wang....
I have been eyeing this purse for awhile but was unable to find it in black.
Until one day when I was waiting for my girlfriend to use the restroom I thought I would just walk by Barney's Co op...
 AND to my surprise this baby was right there waiting for me!
I am not one that is big into purses which you can probably tell from my posts
since I'm usually not carying one.
 BUT now I am happy as a clam and will be toting this one around town...
As for the rest of my outfit...
I loved how rockstar these pants are and keeping the color palette simple really lets them speak for themselves...

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!

Rhiannon

Jacket - Nasty Gal / Dress - Vintage / Boots - Dolce Vita

Rhiannon rings like a bell through the night
And wouldn't you love to love her?
Takes through the sky like a bird in flight
And who will be her lover?

All your life you've never seen a woman
Taken by the wind
Would you stay if she promised you Heaven?
Will you ever win?
- Fleetwood Mac


I found this sheer flower printed dress this past weekend and have been dying to wear it....
I love the muted colors and how it can fall off the shoulder, so delicate like.
BUT because it's delicate I added shearling jacket, chunky moto boots & necklaces!
The high bun lets you see all the details...
Hope you are all having a great week!

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!

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!
