{ costume of the day } freaky friday






{ vintage anne klein sunnies, the glamourai for shrimpton couture moroccan cross necklace, day in the life top (courtesy of modcloth), 12by12 harem pants (a favorite from last summer), vintage gold necklace (worn on wrist) and ring, poppy crystal cuff (courtesy of coach), philosophy di alberta ferretti mesh & suede shoes }

it is muggy and intermittently rainy today ~ a fact i didn't realize until i was halfway out the door this morning. obviously, i had to turn back around and do a shoe switcheroo, but first took a moment to make photos in my building's weirdly luminescent lobby. my super was so confused: "yo, you going out or not?!" apparently unexpected rainstorms don't cause most tenants to break into impromptu photoshoot mode. oh well, happy friday everybody!

If I could raid your accessories closet for one day I think I'd die happy. I'm in love with that necklace! Not to mention the vintage ring and sunglasses.

Happy weekend!

Sonya said...

your photography is out of this world. i am in awe of your endless creativity with it - you have infused such a wonderful artistic spontanaeity and emotion into your photos, there are no blogs i know that do it so well. your outfits and personality are completely transformed by the way you present them. they may not be my style in a store rack, but seeing the way the clothes work for your life and point of view is great. and i love that it's not all about clothes - it's the scene too.

with photography like this, i wonder if you'd be interested in movie directing. you have an amazing eye for visuals. if i had to think of a similar photographer to you, i'd pick jerry schatzberg in his film story of a downfall child.

ahhhh! photo number two is sooo rad. I don't know why I'm acting like I've never seen anything like it before, haha, but hey- just go with it.

The pants are great on you....not sure I'd take the leap, but I like how it's working with your look. And your color palette here = perfection.

leslie in Denver said...

Over the top chic-ness, to the point that there needs to be a new word in the English language to express it! Love love love the whole look...

Market Publique said...

Love the photography!

The top is nice but eerily reminiscent of the Laila Azhar one with the zipper down the front...


And the necklace is to die for!

debsaidno said...
