A New moon on Monday
...and A Firedance through the Night



Cream Blazer & Gray Jeans


What I'm Wearing
* DL1961 Premium Denim gray jeans ...last seen here also seen here
* Organic John Patrick 100% Biodegradable tunic/camisole {the softest ever}
* Vintage ivory blazer ...last seen here
* Fluffiest scarf ever from the little Sundries shop in the lobby of the building the gallery is located and for about $15 - I actually really love it ...last seen here
* Various silver bangles & D&G white/mirror watch, HUGE silver heart earrings from the local Farmer's Market {a few years ago - see also here} and Tiffany 1837™ Lock pendant necklace
* Lovely People Alia oxford in creme ...not the best made shoes but I grabbed them from SeenOn for $25
* Tom Ford cat eye sunglasses ...found them for sale here

Title: lyrics from Duran Duran "New Moon on Monday" {I obviously can't get enough of Duran Duran lately ...but also, it's Monday . . . oh Monday}


I keep leaning towards these muted/faded tones in similar hues lately ...although I'm sure it will change now simply because I've noticed it. This outfit reminds me of a Seinfeld episode, well most specifically, what Elaine would wear ...not so much the colors but the style of it all together with the oxford flats. Though I'm sure the over sized, shoulder-padded blazer has something to do with it as well. And speaking of the early 1990's, the sort of undone straight hair, using my fingers to push it back and alternate sides throughout the day hairstyle just epitomizes the era for me. It's literally how I wore it on a daily basis to school. It's funny how it's all so fresh again really.

* Also, I'm still dressing super casual for work lately because we're in the middle of the move. It's kind of a great little transition because I'm excited now to sort of "dress up" again soon.

I love that scarf! I'm a huge scarf fan and that one looks so comfy. If only I lived near your gallery. :)

Melissa said...

I love that purple blouse! The jacket and scarf are just perfect too, and how on earth you've managed to make oxfords look that chic is beyond me. You're stunning!

You are TAUNTING me with the Duran Duran lyrics lately!!! When are you going to bust out Girls On Film? Certainly one of the more racy videos of its day, no?

Luh-huh-uvve those oxfords - I am constantly on the lookout for a pair. Those plus the rest of your Elaine Benes ensemble are perfection.

merci!

I've been staring at this scarf for a few minutes now, trying to figure out if I can knit something similar. Really love the mixed media look of it, and the whole outfit is very nice mix of casual and dressy.

I had some Tom Ford sunglasses. I got drunk at an El Torito in Burbank and left them behind where a busboy snatched them up within seconds. I should have insisted on frisking every Pablo in the place.

I love the look today. I have tried to get into oxfords but can't. They look great on you though! Smooches!
