Confessions of a Hedonist


Going for the french look. Failed miserably I'm sure, I mean seriously, I'm wearing shorts and colors other than le cher noir. Oh well, at least the top is french.

This is my hedonist shot, I'm just missing a cigarette, a glass of wine and no bra..oh wait. Nevermind. These shorts are my latest creation, alteration, got them as pants at the swapmeet for...should I tell you? .25$

High Rise 501 Levis Cutoffs



Okay, so I know I already made a post about these shorts but I was just googling pictures of high rise levi's cut-offs to see the different ways people wear theirs and of course came across a picture of Chloe Sevigny (unintentionally, I swear!). I was soo excited only because I haven't seen many people rock them the same way that I do, slightly folded at the bottom (not cuffed!!) because I was too lazy to do anything about the raw bottoms, but apparently Chloe does too! I think the difference with everyone else's DIY levi's is that they don't wear the 501s or maybe it's that they just don't wear them so damn tight around the pelvis that the fact they're incredibly short is besides the point. Anyway, I need to wash them, badly.

Acid and Jill Stuart



Well, when I bought this Jill Stuart bra-top at a sample sale cocktail party in NYC I was actually on another sort of hallucinogen, but apparently it IS as cute as I had presumed. Acid wash overall skirt + bows = speechless.

2 in 1


And before my friend's event on the 8th, I'm thinking of hitting up Voz Alta for the art show that starts at 6 pm, afterall, it is only a few blocks away. The pictures from their past art show look fun. It's a small space but I'm excited to check it out!

Underground Art Scene


If you like the parties that I go to then check out my friend's art show this weekend. I was going mad looking online for information on it and finally I asked him to send me the flyer because I couldn't find anything! Pretty underground..but it should be very interesting and fun. I love warehouse parties in the barrio.. check out really cool past events at warehouses in the "east village" : http://setanddrift.org/projects/reinventing-the-wheel/

Warehouse/Art Parties

Lolita

I love the blue and black combination.

This is my "Lolita" outfit. The dress itself is very girly and I add goth inspired short boots (in this case, my witch boots) to give it a little twist. I really don't know if it's the dress alone or the juxtaposition of such opposites that make me feel so incredibly girly and underage. In any case, I made the dress..should I make more of the same?

Gallery People

Me and my friend, who's hair and plaid shirt I am loooving. And don't you just love my faux mesh shirt?

I LOVE the all black on this woman, and the red hair is to die for, might even beat red lipstick. The form of the dress is beautiful and I'm loving the strapless right now. She really inspires me to get a big hat! And I love the man's shirt, it reminds me of Un Chien Andalou for some reason...the eyes I guess..
Again, the all black is wonderful...the hat reminds of Charlie Chaplin..très très très français..or in this case, française.. I love the simplicity of the dress, and the no bra thing is obviously THE thing..

Thanks for letting me photograph you!

Black is Back


Wait, I'm not sure it ever left.

Oh, so high


The high waisted. Been rocking it for 2 years (50 years?) and still can't shake it off. Especially hot with wide legged bottoms.

Rockin' the Romper


You CAN go wrong with a romper, but not when you pair up like this.
Made this romper myself, Summer 2006.

Just a Touch

Just a touch of lace. This dress had been sitting in my closet for 10 years, I think it was my sister's. I took off about a foot from the bottom, much cuter this way.

I prostitute my clothes

Lacey black dress. Très sexe.

Sprung


Truly inspired by Chloë Sevigny, the floral. I made this top december 2007 (pictured on friend Hilary), and just now is everyone catching up.

Less is More


I told you lace was in. And on the rare occasion you wear a bra, you gotta flaunt it.

The Corset


I've discovered that white corset tops are even appropriate for Notting Hill parties.

Black Mesh




Black and sheer are pretty in, just ask Chloë Sevigny.

Button Up


Found this gem of a shirt in a thrift store. One of the best purchases ever.
Gray button up shorts = madness.

Yeah, your mom's jeans


And don't even get me started on the lacey top.

Levi's Vintage Cut Offs

the levi's cut offs. you know you want them ;) (for sale: 20$)
the low cut spaghetti strap is in, no bra of course.
