light fantastic

Jacket: Thrift. Harem trousers: H&M. Boots: Trash & Vaudeville. Sheer pocket T: Express. Triple amber ring: Dr Foots in New Orleans. Coral/gold ring: YSL. Large cross: Fashionology. Bird skull necklace: LF Mens Fedora: Trash & Vaudeville. Shades: Ray Ban
Felt a bit sparkly last weekend. The sun rays bounce off this jacket like no one's business. There were little disco ball dots following me everywhere (should've captured them in a pic).
When I wear these boots I think of Patricia Arquette in True Romance. LOVE that film and could so see her wearing them. Her candy coloured punk rock outfits were genius. If you've not seen it, rent it out.
ps. I'm reading the comments coming in for the UME piece giveaway by Armor. Keep them coming. I'll pick a winner on Thursday evening.
pps. Thank you to those who are joining me on Bloglovin' here. Means alot. K x

  6. I am so impressed that every single sequin seems to be in place for being a thrift jacket. Definitely a high maintenance piece in need of TLC.

  12. THOSE SHOES ARE TOO BLOODY AMAZING!
    You look great, I love your hair, as always. The sequin blazer came back out to spread it's love and joy.

    I felt like such a weirdo for stalking your page for a little over a year and not really commenting you. Lol, you might remember me as the person who corrected you saying "Trash and Vaudeville" incorrectly.

    I love your blog and your style. <3
    Hope you have a great rest of the week ! And looking forward to your later posts.

  43. I too, am way into wearing sequins jackets (a la grandma circa 1991)! Thrifted the most perfect beaded/sequin one for $6 and pare it down with casual pants and a tshirt with platform heels. It feels perfect nearly everywhere.

    Loving the hat as always :)

  63. You should have been born in the 60s. You would have fitted right in in the late 70s and 80s with all the crochet and then mad colour. Those boots are brilliant, very True Romance, or a bit Pretty Woman. But the cool one, not Julia Roberts.
