catching up

Top: American Apparel. Denim shorts/Nails: Urban Outfitters. Boots: Vintage Frye. Bag: Vintage DIY studded. Lips: Show Orchid by MAC. Shades: Ray Ban
Last Saturday was spent with friends who were in NY for one day so we hit two restaurants and walked around our fave spots looking for random cheap stone rings from street vendors on St Marks (I found one, it's the blush stone next to my large green stone but I'll return for one in black).
You saw me post this long cardi before here. I want to wear it over everything.
ps. Re the double mirror aviator shot: Neither of us knew the other had them on until we saw each other.
pps. One of the restaurants we ate at was a teeny British caff in the village. That's a treacle pud and custard shot people. Sa-li-vate.
