backstage: a second look

There is so much to love in jak and jil's dior backstage post...

red lips. stunning hair. leather jackets. black on black on black. soft shaped tshirts, blazers, fur, loud prints and colors...

It was hard to decide. I decided to try to include the comfortable t shirt, animal prints and a base of black.

Uo half t shirt, H & M cordoroy skirt (my twin's), black tights, black ballet flats

green on greeen

sick of black maybe? gray blazer & paisley scarf over old f21 doily shirt with army skirt & pea sweater.

overalls, etc

greetings from my thanksgiving break...i have been sketching and watching an unhealthy amount of movies old and new.... Last night I was flipping between two late 90s gems...ten things I hate about you and she's all that...

I was intrigued by two things I usually am not a fan of:

Julie Stiles: rocks a mean tube top.
Rachel Leigh Cook and her overalls

emily, I challenge you...not to recreate these looks...but find two items of clothing that you are not a fan of.... but you appreciate on other people!

p.s. how about these ladies above in their overalls! so classic. love all of their hair styles as well

ballerina: a second look

your ballerina look reminded me of some recent posts on cup of jo, i have really enjoyed joanna goddard's adventures in paris (picture courtesy of cup of jo).
p.s. i am taking a ballet class next semester! i have outfits PLANNED already. so look forward to those come spring!

ballerina

i was a horrible ballerina in real life but i like the outfits. this is a blk dress from target with a wm-sonoma ribbon tied around my waist - good one. i'm wearing my black blazer over it and tights & bucks but you don't really need to see those... with thrifted bracelets. wearing my hair up in a bun & used hair spray that smells like apple pie - not on purpose.

backstage


lizzie got me into jak & jill, this challenge will be inspired by these pics from dior backstage. choose whatever gets you going.

mini: a second look

obviously i am not wearing a mini skirt - i'm a professional. so instead, i'm striping it out with gap wool blazer, black skirt, tights & green socks with brown boots.
