Solanah mentioned the other day how she thinks of things to blog about through the day but when she gets home all she can think of is 'here's what I wore today.' Well, I have to admit, I feel the same. Only, here's what I wore on Wednesday when I just had to go out and buy Disney's Snow White on DVD:
Outfit details: scarf - hand-me-down (or, rather, I claimed it as my own) from mum; blouse - church op-shop; vest - Valley Girl; trousers - Target; shoes - a shoe store somewhere near Melbourne.
This is what I like to 'do' to my hair when I can't be bothered doing anything - hide almost all of it under a head scarf and add some faux bangs to the mix (which I used to do to the side, without a rat). It still looks vintage (a little bit of land girl chic, perhaps) and is dead easy to do for lazy ladies like myself.
These are actually the only full length pants I own - I'm not terribly keen on trousers on myself but there are just some days that I can't be bothered putting on stockings, etc. so wearing a dress seems like a chore. Plus, they're good for my dance lessons! (For anyone who's interested, I started Lindy Hop the other night and was absolutely terrified but had fun, anyway).
Oh, also, one of my LiveJournal friends has started a fashion blog - à l'allure garçonnière. I'm really excited about it; if you want to find out what it's all going to be about read her post entitled 'why we need feminist fashion blogs' because I don't want to try to explain myself.
Love,

Inspiring as always, you manage to look vintage and feminine even wearing black trousers and a common white blouse! Gah, I hate you! :)
ReplyDeleteYour hair are gorgeous. Do you use some kind of tool or the bangs are just wrapped on themselves?
Gorgeous! I love your hair too! And how fun is Lindy Hop?! (The squinty b gooode caption made me laugh) :D
ReplyDeleteOhhhhh, I absolutely adore your hair like that! I would never have thought it was your "can't be bothered to do anything else" style, it's really fantastic!
