strung out

Vintage crochet dress with cut outs: Ms Vintage Virgin. Suede waist & bag: Vintage/thrift. Boots: YSL Homme. Earrings: Bought approx 3 yrs ago. Shades: Ray Ban. Cycling shorts: Random.
Last weekend Michael and me hung out for a bit by the water front. When we took these shots, the light reflections off the water somehow appeared across some of the pics and reminded me of fire flies.
The boots are a replacement of these I posted a few weeks ago: I just couldn't get them to fit (they run small). The YSL's are alternatives to these All Saints. FINALLY leopards I can walk around in (these feel like an elastic band with heels attached).
Note. I'll never get enough of fringe. On bags or otherwise.

  40. Cindy - from YSL shop

    Gabrielle - it is cool to have the skyline in view actually. One reason I liked the area.

    Michelle Elaine - per the above written under the pics, it was a fluke or something with the camera from the light reflecting off the water. Didn't plan that but we loved the effect anyway!

    Valentina - yea I love florals too. Def need to start adding them back into rotation.

    Studded Hearts - thx girl. The boots look like something I'd see you in.

  56. Personally I love All Saints boots better cause they have a better heel.
    And don't get me wrong I'm all for leopard booties (my fave this yr is A Wang leopard booties) but I would pair this with a neutral color like grey then they would pope out sensationally.
    Aaaand I'm too officially FRINGE CRAZY :p

  60. Fashion Chalet - that was actually natural!! Trust me, when we looked at the back of the camera to preview the pics we were both suprised. I was standing DIRECTLY in front of the line of where the water was glinting from the sun.

    Vanja - each to his own. I thought I didn't like the YSL heels at first too but that changed quick. Now I actually LOVE that they are like that.
