RiRi...

dang!!! this mesh top is the one of the vintage pieces i picked for rihanna while she shopped in beyond retro. honestly i wanted to buy it...but i passed it along to her. hahahha, and they say fashion is self-centered.

then and now...

these golden yellow suede pump are an amazing retro style that are unique and inexpensive compared to the current kitten heel silhouette

$25

wishwash...

being a cliche is HARD work!! hahaha

redo...

i have spend a portion of this month obsessed with repurposing jewelry. here are some finished necklaces...

this one is a silver chain threaded through a dismantled gold bracelet.



the next two came from the same gold tassel necklace. originally it was a cluster of thin chains draped around the neck with a knotted tassel hanging down the center. one of the chains from the cluster snapped.

i left the broken chain and fastened a heart pendant to the end and also attached a glass charm in the center.



i took the tassel and attached it to a contrasting silver chain.

been thinking of dying my hair (just the back underlayer) a shade of PEACH.
the thing is, i DON'T want it to look like outgrown highlights. like this..
i i want it to be a really bright pastel. like this...


but more like this typa shade of peach.



still not sure...

making it personal...

Cleo Cummings, the inventor of 'personal shoppers' just retired after 73 years of working the sales floor at Macy's. it was an idea she came up with in the 70's. it was an instant success and all Meier & Frank stores adopted the personal shopper program, followed by the entire May Company chain and eventually, competitors including Nordstom and Macy's.



her career started simply because she was determined to wear silk clothing during The Depression so she got a job at Meier & Frank. And she stayed - more than 70 years. A top saleswoman for the company, she was famous for working 12 hour days in her five-inch heels and only in recent years, cut back to shorter ones. hahaha

collecting cool...

by mere definition

gotta love 'er...

sophia loren. in her personal life, she was known for two things...



her sharp wit (which might be credited to being a brunette)...


and only loving one man (whom she towered over in height)...

lonely heart...

its probably for the best that i have no plans for Valentines Day because I would tempted to buy this outfit. i just couldnt afford it!!! hahaha
