royal fuchsia #2

A sequel to the previous outfit, this is what I actually ended up sporting out at work the other day (the main reason being that the fishnets are not entirely cold-proof ;)) )
I think that this dress is the perfect pregnancy item, covering the modified waist and making you stand out of the crowd.Judging by the looks I got while wearing it, I would almost say big bellies hidden under baggy clothes are sexy :)))))))








Composition:
Dress : American Retro
Boots: Cafe Noir
Beanie: made by me for my bf, but I figured I deserve at least one wear for knitting it :D:D
Necklaces: made by me














Also, here is a detail shot of a vintage ring I got from an antiquities shop in Brasov; it has half funny/half grotesque monkey-resembling faces supporting the stone:

royal fuchsia #1

the real colour of this sweater-dress is the one from the last image, but my bf (or should I say husband :D:D) was fooling around with the lights, hence the various shades.



Composition:
Dress : American Retro
Vest: Blue Steel from DulapulBunicii
Boots: Cafe Noir
Head bow: Alice&Sara from DulapulBunicii
Earrings: vintage, from my bf's mum ; they were screw-backs initially, but I turned them into clip-ons, they hang much nicer on the earlobe like this
Necklace: from an improvised antiquity market in front of St.Denis Basilica , in Paris












Here is a close up of the earrings, a perfect 80's reminder :

too much blue can never kill you

2 necklaces i cropped up tonight...I still have to perform some cosmetic adjustments on them, so just a teaser 4 now :D:D


the dragon pendant is from a co-worker of mine, and the Egyptian hippo & scarabs are from the Louvre giftshop (the hippo was originally a key chain, and the scarabs..well I don't know what they were but I pierced them into beads :D)

muhahaha...today's acquisitions

I don't remember the last time I've been so exited about something I bought...:

1. This huge pink bow from Dulapul Bunicii , which is resting for the moment on my bf's plush Cartman puppet :D:D (you should really see this image :P) , until I incorporate it in a smart outfit .









2. The colourful vintage shirt/summer jacket, which I just ordered 10 minutes ago . I can't wait for its arrival :D:D, my heart just started calming down...


What do you think about these ?

chicks and checks

don't you just love this cardi? I fell in love with it the minute I saw it, at a local sort of a thrift store... it just seems to go with everything... it had some additional white ribbons and rhinestones around the neck , but I removed them , as I considered the glossy buttons to be enough of a glam element. I put the ribbon to a better use :D:D
