high-low can you go

party in the front business in the back! i can never get enough high-low hem. ever since i saw stephanie seymour in that guns 'n roses video with that high-low wedding dress, i was hooked. lies. at the time i thought it was a tacky horrible mess, but i had no taste. i thought osh kosh b'gosh was the jam. only if i had know how wrong i was----she was so innovative, so ahead of the times! deeeeeep thoughts right here. i really do love this dress though----it's a giant long plain ole ribbed tank. day pj's. and when an outfit involving the dreaded jeans is just waayyy too challenging a morning task.

the hills have eyes

it's always fun styling a fall lookbook and trying to make it look cold when it's really 99 degrees out. good thing planet blue agrees with my fall rules. bathing suit bottoms=pants. throw a jacket and boots on with those little bad boys, and you've got fall. california style. i loved styling this---we were in deliverance backwoods, we got to eat onion rings with mad ranch at a bikers rest stop in the middle of nowhere, and i loved every single bit of the clothes/jewels/shoes/accessories. if i don't get my hands on that fringe backpack i am gonna cry. just kidding. what loser cries over fringe backpacks? (me. if i don't get one). the model killllled the shoot, and is my new favorite person----asia, a foul mouthed badass from belarus who was highlarious (and made even a tongue ring look cool----that's no small feat). she happened to have yellow hair paint in from a previous job that gave her the most awesome long, thick bang-ed weird highlighter ombre that pushed her radness over the edge. hope you like! and have a party hardy weekend. cause, i've already started. xx

fringe binge

i always forget why i never wear this vest because i love it so....and then when i spend half the day removing my wrist from the tangle of fringe i remember.....it's either the vest or jewelry. no jewelry? no chance.
 scored this amelia earhart aviator jacket from a lookbook that i styled forever ago. free and one of a kind. awesome. also a little tight. not as awesome. damn you sample size.


 your eyes do not deceive you. jeans. yes, jeans. do not adjust your computer screens. this is still purse 'n boots. 'n jeans. woke up and it was superrrr overcast and it turned out to be the first rainy day in forever. which ruled. what didn't rule was the strange smell the shearling on my collar started emanating once it got wet....i guess i could spare those gory details but what's the fun in that? anyway i was running late. all my jean shorts were in the hamper. long skirt outfits were too complicated. so my last ditch effort were these holey bad boys. had to shake the dust out cause they haven't been worn since 1994. that's a joke, obviously. i wouldn't be able to fit in that shizz. currently sipping on a cold one, hoping that you all have been enjoying your weekend as much i am. p.s. i'm knocking on my one year blog anniversary. holy time flies. what do you fools want to see? (besides the obvious answer: more posts) xx

plaid to the bone

 i realize that i never give full details on my jewelry.....i just wear so damn much it feels like a neverending scroll.....but i'll get my scroll on. fingers, left to right: vintage, anantara, elizbeth&james, vanessa mooney, and soixante neuf. bracelets, top to bottom: campise, vintage, and luv aj.
 i wanted those 6974350 dollar ann demeulemeester combat boots for eons. but i didn't want to be stuck paying them off 129831 years later. so i got me a pair of schmann schmemeuelmeesters instead.
 never posts 'n boots is back in procrastin-action. lookin' like a deadbeat creeping around in a tow yard....just got this gigantic droopy beanie from the dudes section at planet blue, and i don't think i've been so in love with a beanie, ever. it hasn't come off of my head for the last week and it will allow me to wear my denim diapers alllll the way through fall cause my head will be so damn cozy that my body will be tricked into thinking i'm warm and toasty. sooooo i might be the homegirl who cried wolf, but my work has mellowed out and i swear my posting won't be every leap year. i'm about to work on my next post riiiiight now. i'm on it. i think.
