complexity









I met up with Jamie in Greenpoint Brooklyn, We were browsing the locations there and took some shots, I loveeeee his photography and Greenpoint is def a area where you can find me a lot!

The outfit is actually a subtle layer galore, I'm really into these layers lately, Its my Complex Geometries hooded tee, Alexander Wang blazer and H&M biker vest with my Zara boots, talking about H&M there are some really awesome hats I'm luring at, and at Zara there is this black Mongolian Fur vest I tried on like 10 times already but couldn't make up my mind...

The packing so far is a disaster, my suitcase is way to heavy so I will have to dive back in to take things out :( I guess I will need to be creative in Europe (I'm having my Mothers closet in mind as well as my Dad's old rolling stone tees)

the first thing I always do back home ( last time I was there is about a year ago) is shopping my own closet, I should have a pair of black dr martens there :) ughhhh 11 hour flight tomorrow :( sux!!!

Ssssht, its a secret















Into the garters now, funny enough I didn't expected it to be this big of a deal, I mean I live in New York..

but strolling around in midtown I just realized how anal some are... they need to get fucking over it cause I'm planning to wear these babes many many times more, and I don't fucking care.. I can zone out sleazy men like i can zone out commercials, unwanted advertisement, same shit...

this outfit is not about sex and I don't dress for guys either, I mean whats up with that? its okay to have billboards of 16 year olds modeling underwear and bikini's..

so I had this discussion with my boss she said no matter how I would try the garters stand for sex, I kind of disagree..

now I got my inspiration from this last photo by Ellen von Unwerth, I'm not sure how to name what it means to me but it doesn't mean sex, maybe voyeurism?

according to the dictionary voyeurism means sex, but I feel there is this different voyeurism, playing hide and seek but not per se related to sex.... more related to identity to keeping some things secret, sacred and shaded.. ???

the white shirt is from Zara, the skirt is a cut off aa dress (yeah.. I cut up the aa dress I loved so much...) the studded vest is a gift from Wicked Plum Vintage, I got some amazing amazing amazing things, cant wait to show you all:) garters and stockings from the H&M as well as the white sneaks, no need to say that everything is yet again dirt cheap..

my new luv









I am truly deeply madly in love with my new tuxedo dress.. I have to say it again; I am seriously truly madly deeply crazy in love with my new tuxedo dress.

And I'm soooo happy that my feet are now being tortured by these amazing hoofs I bought yesterday, at Aldo for gods sake, I never ever peek in there and somehow yesterday I did.. they actually have some good shit.

Pain comes in all different shapes and seizes you know. You have Men who will heartbreak you, you have plastic cards thats say credit but chase you into debit, and right now it comes in the form of black suede 5 inch platforms.

The dress is from BunnyHut Vintage (Ebay), she's away for a bit but comes back in September...

lacey








This is an Oldy, I think a month ago? Lunch-break in Bryant park :) I wear a transparent lace-ish dress that I got from the Urban Outfitters, on sale, I think about 10 dollars :) :) the blouse in 3.1 Phillip Lim (sample sale) knee-highs from the H&M ( I kind of have a kee-high obsession)


Right now in the H&M it is Hat Heaven, all sorts of hats and cheap too, dont forget to check the menswear, I bought two little fedora's, a black and white one :)

and the moon said....



















Today was a beautiful sun lit day, white rays of light diffusing over Manhattan, a perfect day,

Somehow a perfect lit day reminds me of perfect lit evenings, and how do i long for those evenings, when whites seem to glow and beam against deep mysterious endless black.. and silver streams of reflections howl to the moon... thats how I felt today :) howling to the moon...

The Blouse is Vintage, 35 dollars, the Skirt is American Apparel, the knee-highs H&M and my silver shoes vintage too, 3 dollars :)

xoxo

ohhhh big shout outs to Stylecopycat for the feature :) :) you made my day :) you all did :)

ethereal...

Follow my blog with bloglovin´










I have a big big love for flowy, ethereal, romantic and feminine pieces yet deep down I'm this tomboy, white never stays white for long, I sit smoking my cigarettes on the sidewalk if I feel so, like to climb up to about everything... gawk guess I'm still a four year old :) I'm not really sure where my long for this ethereal feel comes from, It might be "Echo and Narcissus" or "ophelia" would my inspiration be "romantic tragedy"? I don't know yet haha :)

DIY embellished tights














So I started to DIY embellished tights, spent the late night hours doing it and it feels so good to finally make things again haha..

I was today in China Town hoping to find some knock off Chanel and LV tight but no luck :(


I did bought two knock off real leather Chanel bags lol, dude they come with little Chanel booklets and authenticity cards (with serial number) all high quality paper!!?? better be careful with ebay stuff because these are copied into every little detail!

Its so fun though, to follow this Chinese lady to little back-rooms or being taken to a warehouse in some dark alley, today she walked me to her SUV, someone was standing on watch, it was clear, we went into the car, she showed me what she got, made the payment, then she called the "watch-out" to make sure there wasn't any police and I left... haha Chanel Dealer...


Anyway.. on the first photo, I wear a vintage blouse under my shredded t-shirt (shirt done by; whatwerock) and again my tutu to create silhouette, on the other photos its just the shirt, I choose to wear the tights with something more rough and dark, guess it was my mood..

More tights coming up :) xoxo

white illusion







An oldy, well two weeks ago or something like that? anyhow, I just love the black and white thing and I'm still obsessed with the knee highs..

The skirt is a faux Chloe, dont care if stuff is real or fake, which reminds me, I really want the LV tights, would love to get my hands on faux ones,

I know they must have cloned them already, must have, does anyone know where to find them? would hate it if i have to go to China Town.... would hate it even more if I actually have to buy the real ones.... :)

rain rain rain







This picture was pure luck :) the whole day was rainy and somehow I just picked this outfit, prob because I'm so hooked on the black and white :)

anyway, this is my coworkers umbrella, just before we went for lunch she came back.. and it hit me... so I borrowed the umbrella, and we took some pictures just across the street from our office,

the shoes I just got a day before on sale in the zara, i was so happy to have some comfi shoes instead of massive heels... wrong... blisters all over, I could hardly walk!!!

I got really inspired by this photo, the location, lightning, filters, everything, its perfect!

So while I have been drowning myself in this mood for the entire month I have to say that my moods and with that "themes" shift shape like I don't know what.....

anyways about the photo; I can decorate my entire life with this, shop a whole wardrobe, heck I am capable of relocating to a different part of the world just to experience this! :)
