Filthy Plaid

I  convinced my boyfriend to take us to the LA County fair on their closing day here in Pomona. I wanted to get the last bit of wear out of my chanclas (sandals) before I fully commit to boots for the fall season. Oh how I wish I'd worn boots, because my feet were filthy by the end of the night.  I found these amazing shorts at my favorite thrift store for........50 cents! I know! I couldn't believe it. I plan to pair them with so much more, chunky knit fisherman sweater from AA, sweatshirts, My Moto boots and maybe over the knee boots ( if I can manage to find the perfect pair). An essential find to my closet for .50 cents. Thank you thrift gods!

SUMMER DRESSES FOR FALL

 

Dress: Vintage rework (re-designed by me) Shoes: Charles Jourdan  Bag: Philip Lim

 

 

 I haven't had much time this week to dress up. I went out on a date to the Grove and wore my favorite summer dress. It's an amazing 70's dress, from a maker here in California. I redesigned the skirt, I tend to do that with a majority of my vintage finds.

 

 I just got this Philip Lim bag, for target of course. It seems to be the theme with most girls, their boyfriends buy them very expensive bags for their birthday, Christmas, or anniversary gift. I just want to tell you, I for one am no different. Hint hint hint. Of course I would love and appreciate anything I receive.

Heels take any outfit I wear to a whole different level. Heels literally elongate my legs and position my body in a way that makes my outfit look entirely different. I wore this Butterfly silk dress by Naven to a baby shower, with a floppy hat and some sandals and it seemed very appropriate. My Mother said she loves the ventilation on the dress. Lol. However, I wore this same dress to a weekend family BBQ and the heels made me feel like I was too dressy. Oh well, I don't get to dress up as much as I once did. So Heels to a BBQ it is. The thing about heels, is they have to be the right ones. Sometimes an outfit calls for an elaborate heel and other times a simple sexy shoe will accent a particular outfit perfectly. One thing I personally will never do is wear a Kitten Heel. No. No.No. It's either sky high, and I mean so high, I have to bend over to kiss my mamasita goodbye, high or flat as a chola's hair after a hot shower. Another must have for me this summer are my glasses pictured here. I love my Carrera glasses so much, I won them in blog Give away for Karlascloset.com. They're literally the best glasses I've ever worn thus far. The Cobalt blue is the best part, they add color to anything I'm wearing and they never clash!
