Little Fille

I'm wearing; Little Fille Carmen headband, Anywho Kobra Jacket

New two-way headband with detachable velvet bow in antique gold from Little Fille
(I'm wearing it rope side up) for a classic look but can't wait to play up the velvet bow!! I had such a hard time picking a color because I really love the black and navy bow too, must be so cute with a little black dress.

Sherbet Lemon

I'm wearing; Vintage Kimono, YourEyesLie inner galaxy tee, TopShop crushed velvet leggings, La Dama Pyramid necklace, All Saints Boots

Love this galaxy tee, I'm practically living in it! However a tiny note on the tank is that the back is not printed, it's solid black and as you can see in the neckline, the tee is a digital print so you can see the (original) white in the neckline and at the side-seams!!

and I'm so sad, yesterday my tiny little pet mouse Sherbet Lemon died :( (little brother of Whizzbee)

leatherette

Wearing; Anywho Kobra Elisabeth Jacket, Marc Jacobs silk light blue shirt, H&M faux leather pants, Ebay buckle boots.

If you ask me the best ways to wear leather pants are with classic (light blue) shirts and heels, striped long sleeve tees with (low) converse all stars and low cut tank tops and boots. So naturally I don't play by my own rules and wear the pants with a classic shirt and high buckled boots instead of sophisticated sleek heels *sign* Whats wrong with me?

Leather pants are a real investment piece, I think when you find a pair that fits perfectly you need to be willing to spent on it, obviously these fauxies aren't, and obviously I went cheap on myself with a refusal to spent on a perfect pair. *sign* Something is definitely wrong with me!

Vintage Haori

wearing; Vintage Haori Kimono, Zara silk top, Top Shop Wedges, stylebysofia skirt (not seen)

The vintage Haori kimono is kind of my new thing, the length is shorter so I can wear it as a shrug/jacket, the heavy weight of the silk and the patterns and colors make for a perfect item to mix although I must say I'm clumsy when it comes to the sleeves,, knocking everything over!

I have a collection of about 6 kimono's now, I try to sheer away from the classic Japanese patterns a bit to make the look less obvious and have fallen in love with the bold geometric patterns although they are a bit harder to come by, so far my collection consists of a lot of pastels and tie-dye's, all vintage and all silk!

Shakuhachi pre fall 2011

Shakuhachi " Shoot Me" pre fall 2011

I need these golden tipped boots!! ..need everything actually...

Note to self; must find for Spring/Summer/pre-fall silver shorts, transparent creamy/beige slip dresses, cream harem trousers.

Can't wait for the Jeffrey Campbell multi glitter foxy wood's to come in, they would style amazing in these looks!! (ps I ordered them in size 7 because at the time the 6.5 were sold out so they might be to big for me, if someone wants to trade the multi glitter let me know!)

wearing; TopShop Wisteria Wedges

Some of the in-between shots we took while doing a little shoot for a Nylon Japan feature.

Nova is a natural, she always likes to sleep where the action is; on my laptop, on the book I'm reading, on my towel when I come out of the shower, in the sink when I try to brush my teeth, on the clothing while I try to get dressed...

The thing is she has a talent to make me doze off while I'm trying to get something done by simply crawling on me or by settling herself closely against me to sleep.. even editing these photos made me long for a little nap!

If you ask me the Vanessa Bruno video's are by far the best of all the fashion video's out there,
this last video is absolutely my favorite because it's somehow exactly how I feel?
( check out Vanessa Bruno's youtube channel here for all the videos )

Shakuhachi twist dress

This is totally and by far my favorite dress! I'm a big fan of all the Shakuhachi dresses actually!
Geeee, you know, I wouldn't mind having a whole Shakuhachi wardobe top to bottom to be honest, love everything a little bit too much :)

ps. Is there someone who can get a hold of the Nylon Japan March issue for me? I can pay mag+shipping by paypal...
