for all those....

obsessed with the artist-muse relationship of serge gainsbourg and jane birkin. Pleae be aware that classic mix of awakward beastly brillance and effortless beauty is not personified completely in this pair. the ultimate in my eyes.
charles and linda lee bukowski.

topsy turvey

for some reason im slightly attracted to statement makeup, even though the people at the mac counters scare me like no other. i think picking one feature to blow out of the water is acceptable, so i just might be stepping out of the box for the upcoming holiday season. BUT no clown face here! i know that neon is what you think of in summer,but hey, rules were meant to be broken right?

i think im a balmain girl

punk rock with a twist of chic. oh, Christophe Decarnin be still my heart. while drooling over his creations, i couldn't help but get the DIY itch in my hands.
i expect a heavy onset of pricked fingers and under the breathe cursing while i hand pin a facsimile creation. but, oh won't it be worth it...now if i could only look like Sasha....

sunday funday

my boyfriend recently purchased a new schwin bicycle and i've been taking it around town when i have spare time. it's been propped up against our wall since the weather has been a bit on the cold side. once i've properly greased the chain i plan to completely take over it. sharing is caring, right?




i took a cue from my earlier post featuring the satorialist shot and threw on some stripes.






shirt: h&m
skirt: f21
belt: thrifted

springtime cravings

it seems as though this winter has been the longest. it's possible that the torrents of wind and rain that kept on for days weren't helping. i had been stuck inside AND my poor car was flooded.......so i turned to my trusty camera to lighten my spirits.




in an effort to evoke a time of peace, serenity and summertime warmth i paired my favorite vintage jumper with thick american apparel knee highs. the effect was comfortable and surprisingly cozy. i'll bring this bad boy back out when the sun is shining high and only high boots will be upon my legs.








you can see my sour disposition over my the weather induced cabin fever all across my face. i swear that next time i will BE and LOOK more excited.

jumper: vintage
belt and shoes: thrifted

delayed

ok, the other half of rosarie here.
from christmas time to well after new years, my head has been spinning. i've only recently had the time to sit down . so i'll take some time to share my new years outfit.












this is vintage dress i bought and cut immediately, accompanied by a vintage fur i purchased on 4th street in long beach at a small boutique named la bomba.
the night was a blur and so there were no pictures from it, these are all thats left from a night hopping from the echo to party to crashing neighbors parties.

dress: vintage
necklace: f21
fur: la bomba
shoes: urban outfitters

What I wore:

I hadn't worn a skirt in what seems like forever so I decided to dig in my closet and reconnect with one that I bought so long ago and never wore. What attracted me to it the first time was really the print and how loud it was. I paired it today with a simple black shirt and booties. Sometimes simplicity is the way to go.

Shirt: BDG scoop neck

Skirt, Glasses, Shoes: Vintage

Belt: Rite- Aid
