School Girl

What do you wear to school?


... well my dream is to hop on that yellow school bus that Bart Simpson gets on and say hi to that cool dread lock dude.


I have always been to a uniformed school, so it's not like mean girls where I can comment on a girls skirt (" I love your skirt! where did you get it from?" " Vintage! Cute:)" " that is the ugliest effing skirt that I've ever seen" - Regina George)




Also, my joy in life is to watch movies, and two years back I was into the 80's!!!!!!!
the jelly shoes, shoulder pads, ra-ra skirts, MJ and Madonna... well all these were seen in films alright!!! St Elmos fire and Ferris Bueller's day off


I loved Ferris's girl friend's over sized jacket







And Demi Moore's one too!!!


so I was inspired to do an outfit post all about the oversized jacket's and teens!!!

If I ever went to senior high in the states, this would be my first day of SCHOOL




Gingham check dress- from a boutique located in the northern beaches
Denim jacket- levis from my mum
Made in USA converse- lucky find in Japan
Socks- shimamura ( cheap franchise in Japan)
Bag- mujirushi 

 This gingham checked dress is ruffled at the front and tight at the back... a special find
The denim jacket was given to me by my mum, originally a gift from my father but as history goes, their relationship didn't work out meaning a beautiful indigo levis jacket for me!



cute backpack, perfect for school and travelling



colourful felted kitten mascot, made by a french illustrator- chat en chien ( cat and dogs)

USA converse with frilly socks!! - a minor trend in Japan last year

Paris, Texas ... and papa

My father is a huge fan of films and as a toddler, i grew up listening to Tom Waits and the soundtrack of Paris, Texas. He is a strange man who I will never forget, he's passion for Jack Nicholson and the red paaisley bandana's. 




This outfit is chic and paris but I thought it didn't have enough something in it... I want a onomatopea to discribe this feeling but it's not coming to me...

Then an AHA moment.... red paisley bandana- Perfect!!

This fake fur vintage coat was so affordable and so useable in cold seasons... LOVE

Paisley bandana- Hollywood Raunch Market Daikanyama
Boarder Shirt- SHIPS love the unique neck! very flattering actually
Belt- leather beld by H and M $10
Coat- Vintage

 Snuggled up and cozy... I feel like a chai latte

 my newest bag......................... I got it on the night I got back from Camp
It's Louis Vuitton- I'm a lucky child...
I love her mohair red knitted jumper...... and her hair!




Also, Isabel Marant's this seasons rtw collection is somewhat Texas inspired with a twist of Isabal magic- edge! It's edgy and feminine and cow girl but not Miley Cyrus


sorry, I can't get those photo's up some how but check out style.com!!!

tendance de la mode étrangère vol1. Lily Brown

When Octavia Spencer won her award at the Oscars, I was so happy for her. It was only a month ago I saw The Help, and 2 months ago I saw the Ugly Betty episode with her acting as Ignasio's keen lover.
I must say, her speech was so cute and pure. I loved the movie, especially the costume aspect of it! 50's I adore...
I try to keep watch for new brands in the world, and I came across this store!


Opened in September 2011. It is a vintage- inspired brand located in several places within Tokyo, Japan.  It is highly inspired by the amazing era of the 50's with a shift of the 10's!

These photo's are from the spring/summer 2012 collection. The square bag with a silk scarf recklessly wrapped and the mustard coloured leggings! I must say, that is a great piece of the mix in the era's...


Great mid shot of the fair young model. The denim jacket- the symbol from then sex symbol James Dean, and the dress is clearly inspired by the iconic Yves Saint Laurent 60's Jersey Dress. I know it's not the 50's, it's still pretty!

Mustard again, and I wish I was able to pull off a hat like that! I love how the colour is so authentic, like something that Granny might pull off but the material and the sillouette is our age.







These amazing pieces are alll from Lily Brown. How retro are these beautiful sherbet colors are?
Especially the shirt dress has got such a old look with the length and the print yet a mode edge with the cut out shoulders


loving this shop? I think so!
