summer lovin' lust list.
time for a new lust list. i decided for summer i am just going to be sporting rompers and caftans. it sounds uniform like and easy. i'm not really a dress person, but can definitely sport a caftan, because it doesn't feel too girly--more mrs. roper, but that's fine. so here are a few of the lovely items i am craving, and this doesn't include most of my ebay watched items. as you can see i'm not really digging on the whole 'nude' trend, i love it--it just doesn't love me. maybe when i get a tan,and i can't wait for that to happen. does anyone have a roof or a pool where i can sunbathe? so, the question is... what are you lusting for this summer?
also, in the works is going to be a shop where i will be selling clothing, shoes and some diy's. yay! i will try to get it up tomorrow or the next day.
thanks for all of your well wishes, i am feeling much better.

story of the night: the joys of living in hollywood. my husband and i are sitting in the front room. he is obsessively watching 24 and i am working on this post when i see our front door open (my husband always forgets to lock the door, which is a huge ocd thing with me, we live in hollywood for gods sake). i look at my husband like "wtf? are you expecting someone" and this guy just walks right in. i'm thinking he's going to whip out a gun, nothing new (it's happened to me 3 times). fortunately my little doggie violetta came to the rescue and barked him out of the house, but even then he took his time. so i go lock the door and it reeks of alcohol where he was standing. just some random drunk dude coming in to have a beer i guess. wtf? and where was my husband? he was just sitting on the couch staring at the guy. haha. okay enough stories for the night. mwah.
caftans courtesy of the amazing: spanish moss vintage, jumpsuits: shopbop mostly, shoes: zara, bonadrag, shopbop, nasty gal vintage and solestruck. purse: oak nyc, hat: free people, vest: pixie market and belt: ebay. phew! i can't believe i remembered all of those.

I'm paranoid too, about keeping the doors locked. Better safe than sorry.
I'm liking that henley style romper... very pajama-ish (even though it's paired with heels).

great shoes...fabulous selection
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love. Especially the blue one with the cinched waist! And I'm not sure I could pull off the nude either- I don't know that the world would enjoy seeing that too much.
ReplyDeletewow i really love that first kaftan!! I'm definitely looking for a few kaftan of my own for this summer, plus overly destroye denim cutoffs, shirt dresses to wear with knee highs, and a whole influx of maxi dresses and skirts to flood my wardbrobe.
ReplyDeletecongrats on moving forward with the shop, can't wait to see the diys you come up with!!

I love the last pair of platforms. And I never lock doors either. But I've never had anyone walk in, with our without a gun. That's scary, Tessa.
