The Ghost in You, She Don't Fade.



menswear  tweed pants -  tweed jacket-pink manolo mary janes


What I'm Wearing
* Thrifted tweed jacket... which is a bit big actually and was suppose to take a journey to the tailor but I found it hanging quietly in the guest room closet.
* DIY pearl v-neck t-shirt. Loving this shirt!
* Mark by Marc Jacobs cropped tweed menswear pants. A GILT find.
* DIY fabric flower belt {or necklace or headband}.
* Vintage sunglasses.
* Watermelon pink Manolo Blahnik Mary Janes. I think I need the black ones too. They're a classic {in black} and surprisingly comfortable, which equals a great investment!

* Title: lyrics from Psychedelic Furs - "The Ghost In You".

It's a little much, this outfit... with all the pink and pearls and flowers, but the manly tweeds balance it out a bit I think. It's fun to be ultra feminine sometimes though, but I really never want to feel "prissy", it's just not my thing. I have a hair appointment on Friday and am thinking I should add a little strawberry blonde back in the mix... ? I liked the touch of red I had last year, though the overall color was a bit dark for me. Maybe just a glimmer of light strawberry cream this time? It's funny though, when my roots grow out, it literally looks like my natural hair when I was young that would get really light in the Summer sun and grow out darker in the winter months. I suppose that's why I never really mind my roots that much.

I don't think it's "a bit much" at all! Very classic/tailored, in fact, with a touch of whimsy (whatever that means...I'll have to look it up)......"Anyhow", you look fan-tastic. Just perfect!

p.s. I absolutely LOVED the golden/strawberry haircolor you had last year. Very natural looking, and absolutely perfectly done. I believe I commented/complimented your haircolor often during that entire time........and it brought out your beautiful blue eyes.

Anna Saccone said...

I think you look absolutely beautiful!! Love the outfit, hair, everything. Perfection! <3

If you haven't had your hair done yet then here is a suggestion {which of course you are totally free to ignore, especially given I have dreams about having hair like yours so probably not qualified to be handing out advice}. Anyway my suggestion is don't say red, or strawberry blonde. Have a little copper thrown in, I think it might look prettier than how most hairdressers interpret 'red'.
