What I Wore: 6.21.08

June 22, 2008

 

  

I was going for a 60s stewardess look yesterday. I just got my hair trimmed and I always beg my hairdresser to give me a bouffant, but my hair is so stick straight that no amount of back combing and hairspray can keep the ‘hive up!

Saint-Tropez shirt, Urban Outfitters
Navy wool skirt, Banana Republic (my aunt’s friend was cleaning out her closet and gave this to me. It’s mid-90s era and wraps around and fastens with a little attached belt.)
Scarf (in hair), vintage
Tights, DKNY (They’re metallic silver with pinstripes!)
Heeled oxfords, ZINDA (Italy)
Purse, Miu Miu
Watch, Target

   Wow, You look very nice! I think you’ve pulled the look off nicely. I’ve been into beehives recently but not fro mthe hairdresser! It’s a bit of a DIY job around my place!
   Pictures will be coming Saturday!
   Cuddles and cookies,
   Vixxie.
   P.S – I still love those shoes!

   Vixxie: I’ll have to check in when you do that post, I need all the help I can get!

   Auntie Nubs: They’re super nice and I fetched them outta the sale bin at Nordstrom.

   cloud: I’d wanted that bag since I saw it last fall at Saks in NYC and it took me forever to find one!

   Hehe…the headscarf looks fantastical.
   The slight hint of blue works really well!
   And the large red arrow on the wall beside you doesn’t hurt either

   Cute outfit!
   I have the same issue with straight hair, though I have dreads now, when I had normal hair it didn’t matter WHAT I did to it, it would never tease or go ‘poofy’. SO FRUSTRATING.
   Someone suggested talcum powder to me, apparently it really works. Just put a bit in your roots [massage it in well so you can't see it] add hairspray & voila! It makes it stiffer.

   Where abouts did you get that pill keyring? It is awesome! I know a few people who would LOVE something like that!
   Have you seen the pill flashdrives you can get? So cute!

   Bex: Thanks for the tip! I need all the help I can get! Haven’t seen the pill flash drives….don’t tempt me! The key ring was from Hot Topic here in the U.S.
