ballet for a rainy day.


okay so i must admit, i did not shoot this outfit tonight. today i sat home looking at shoes online--in my sweats. oh except for walking the dog and a trip to starbucks, which honestly i didn't even feel like doing. cfs is acting up a little worse than usual. it's been rainy in l.a. which always makes for a nice lazy day anyway. my heart goes out to the people in chile. i don't read/watch the news as i don't like to feed into any negativity, but i hear things through fb and twitter. sending lots of love that direction.

okay on another note, if you have been following my blog you know i have a love for kimonos. this one is a really pretty light mint color that you can't really see in the pics. i paired it with some aa leggings and the dany's. i also put chopsticks in my hair and my lips are painted like a geisha. i must have really been getting into character, i mean look at those poses...and a bell even! love.

  11. when i become famous i'll hire you to be my stylist. we'll gossip and eat candy hearts and you'll make me look as cool as you do. or so i hope. but then again, i don't look like DB/KG like you do. love the previous pamela des barres-esque outfit too.

  13. Have you ever been to those antique kimono sales? There's one every year at Fort Mason & I think they do one in LA every year too. I managed to go once & they had some incredible pieces.

    Anyway, love the outfit, but especially love those poses! :D You are cracking me up w/ the bell.
