cobwebby


We took these pics after lunch and heading to the park. I found this psychedelic crochet cardi about a month ago-ish. The stretchy yarn and circular pattern reminds me of a spider's web. I had to take it.
The wide flare jeans are a couple of sizes big on me (last size from a boutique closing down sale).
Here's the wedges I posted last week. They run TTS and are so worth it for a 70's style vibe.

Crochet cardigan: Strawberry. Jeans: Seven. Also available here. Shoes: Joe's Jeans. Bikini & blue pendant: H&M. Large nail pendant: Courtesy of Fashionology. Fringe bag: Foley & Corinna vintage. Pink stone ring: YSL

  61. Pea - necklace twins

    Thehautepursuit - eternally is such a good description for the cardi. I nodded when I read that.

    Amy - def get a pair. It makes a welcome change to wearing the same old boring straights.

    Camaorrowj - omg lololol!!! eating carrots would last about 20 mins for either of us. GOT to eat a bit more than that lol!!!

    Yvonne - welcome : )

    Louise - awwww thanks and I overuse loads of words. I have to catch myself when I speak sometimes.

    Signhild - Photoshop! Just taking down the saturation and playing around really.

    Diana - hello you! Thx : ))



    Anon - I know I know. THe hair post. I can't say when since I don't want to make promises with a date. It's on my mind though to do one and I will.

    Other Anon - Because it's bloody hot out and more importantly, because I felt like it.

    Thx for the comments pple. I can't remember when I DIDN"T like crochet for summer. It's a staple every year.

  62. I actually kind of like the way the pants "hang" on you. Its sort of in keeping with the relaxed, hippie vibe.

    ps
    As a San Franciscan, I am insanely jealous of anyone who has warm enough weather to walk around in a bikini top. It's currently 58 degrees outside.
    ReplyDelete
  63. Sweetie, ur cute and everything. But if it's "so bloody hot out" you might want to consider NOT wearing thick denim jeans?
    That bikini top around town looks just ridiculous, I am sorry. Other than that, the pics are nice, if this was a magazine photo shoot. Only, you know, err, it's not.

  64. okay, id die for that crochet cardigan!!

  73. Mi piace il tuo post e se è di moda
    ReplyDelete
  74. this is so hot, hot, hot! i envy you for living in a city where it's not considered a taboo to wear bikini tops on a normal day. if i wore this outfit in Manila, i'd either get "the eye" of worse, i'll be dubbed as hooker (not that you look like one, k?).

    if only Filipinos were a bit more open-minded with fashion, i would've worn this outfit in a heartbeat!

    do send me some crazy lovin' over at deathbyplatforms.blogspot.com :)
