A while back, I was obsessed with owning a blue fox fur coat; but the only ones available were new ones, and they were way out of my budget (for rent!). So I resorted to scouring the vintage stores in East London, finally spotting one that's reasonably priced, light colored, and in fairly good condition. But before I head off and possibly wreck the fur in my attempt to change its color, let me first do an outfit post with it. Who knows, the next time you see this it could just be a blotchy blue blob of mush. And to add more to my provocative ways, I borrowed my friend's thick stockings that masqueraded as leggings and Mary-Jane triple-strapped ballerina flatforms for the bottom half of me to prance around in. Would you believe that a policeman told me to leave the premises as I was photoshooting in a supposedly restricted area? Imagine if he arrested me and I had to lounge in a holding cell wearing this outfit..... I'd look like a proper whore (but at least I'd be warm).

Haha! Thank God you didn't wind up in jail! I can't wait to see how the fur turns out once you've died it... best of luck ... it sounds like it could be gorgeous.

I'm so worried it's gonna be ruined, but I'd wear it as it is for the mean time ;)
DeleteThank you for the lovely comments on my http://korenevau.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteMr.Niche the fur coat is just flawless, it spiced up the whole look, and those shorts are just unpredictable, most of us might've matched it with something more "formal" but your daring decision bears beauty. the gloves and the shoes would be my second faves. and about the hater comment, I GOT LOADS OF, haters are just gonna hate, they have nothing on us.<3

This look is GREAT!! I LOVE it! I generally do not do fur, but if it is vintage I can deal with it. Ah you are going to dye it!? It is so nice as it is...but I can understand your desire. Your blog is GREAT! You are giving Bryan Boy a run for his money ; )

Thank you for your sweet comment, sweetie! I'm so glad I could 'help' you. You shouldn't let yourself pulled down by those 'haters'. They're most of the time anynomous and just come to hate, just laugh. It means they took the time to visit your blog and even comment, YAY! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou're standing out of the crowd with your outfits and that's amazing! Wouldn't it be boring if everyone would wear the same? Anyway, not everybody's gonna like it and that's okay. Even the biggest bloggers wear outfits some people might hate, or pretend hating out of jealousy.
Anyway, I wish you the best of luck with your blog!
Love,
Rowan

Loving your (oxymoron) new vintage and your elfish shoes + the thumb up is a classic, and why do I have the feeling you wouldn't really mind being arrested by a policeman?

Thanks Ruvic, I'm sure you can rock this look too, just wear it and go to your local post office and act like everyone is underdressed and you're the normally attired one haha.

ReplyDeletewww.stylentonic.com
You’re so chic! So stimulatingly fashionable......…and you have such a great sense of style.
ReplyDeleteLove your legs in the white tights…… reminds me back to ballet as a child……You match perfectly…everything you wear……
Perfect balance. Love the coat......don't color it......... it's perfect now...... love your shoes as well....the more straps the better......my mom had me in mary janes and ballet slippers all of my childhood........
I grew up in tights, being in ballet for 13 years. In fact, mom raised me rather androgynously, so I also wore tights under big sweaters and hip length tunics and such around the house growing up. Your lovely look reminds me of all those days….epsecially when the delivery man would come and I’d meet him at the door and he’s refer to me as Miss……
Oh, by the way, I’m a guy…and I love fashion as much as I love dance.
I’m traveling in Europe this fall,
It looks like you have the same affinity for fashion as I have…..
I’ve been raving to my new friends about how much I love the tights/shorts look, so they encouraged me to try it myself…
and I have in a big way,….. denim cutoffs, high waisted shorts, even a romper…….
I will following your blog religiously….. thanks for sharing your lovely taste and your trend setting style..........
