WIW 6/15 Much saner

I feel so much better in today's outfit. Though I don't know how bloggers like Atlantic Pacific do the whole take pics with coffee cup thing. It was pure torture to buy my cappuccino and drive the photo spot and not take a sip, otherwise my lipstick stained cup would ruin the effect. Though maybe it would add a sense of gravitas.
Anyways I found a drive up window at an abandoned bank for my backdrop. But it was a bit tricky to shoot because the pavement was slanted.
Wearing an ALC twisted hem sweater, R13 chap jeans and Celine Love Life sneakers and LAMB bag.

WIW 6/14 Maximal whackadoodle, possible veering into crazysauce

So my sales person at Nordstrom has been trying to get me into these Givenchy floral Birkenstock style sandals for quite a while. I balked at the price, then they went on sale, still balking. Well yesterday I was perusing the dregs of designer clearance and they were even further reduced. Only thing was they were a 41. I used to be a 40 consistently, but now am finding I need to size up. But they fit like Birkenstocks should, though I must say the footbed is not as comfortable.
So I thought the rose garden would be a good location shot. They were setting up for a wedding.
Worn with my H&M floral pants; when these die, it's going to be a sad day. I think they're over two years old. Current/Elliott camo shirt, Nanette Lepore leather jacket (five years old). Venessa Arizaga necklace, Claire's floral headband and old Coach leather fanny pack (is mid 90's vintage?). The socks are a pale pink. 
Going to a local seafood restaurant that has an outdoor fireplace and champagne bottle specials. I'm wearing a camisole under this and they high will barely be in the low 60's. My friend is determined to eat on the patio. Will be testing the warming effects of champagne, uh yeah for science. We are then going to do a closet sort and remix of her closet.

WIW 6/13 Denim jumpsuit

So pic #1 was taken this morning, but couldn't finish or post because I would have not made it to Pike Place Market in time.
Anyways I lusted after this R13 cowboy jumpsuit for quite a long time. It finally went on sale at Net-a-porter, and well I jumped. It's a smidge snug, but my weight is up and we're entering hiking season. So it's a bit of a fit gamble but I really still like it.
I then realized I was going to freeze, so a I put on my old Nanette Lepore leather jacket with the lace-up sides. I was still cold. Yes, mid-June in Seattle.
Worn with my big black floppy hat and Isabel Marant Dicker's.
I went to the weirdest event at Nordstrom after work. It was a wine and cheese thing in Via C where you looked at ipads loaded with with pics of the pre-fall offerings. But the pics were from the buyers so they were either badly done snaps (some were blurry) on fit models, stock photo of item or even no photo. I did spy an amazing copper hued sweatshirt from 3.1 Philip Lim that I pre ordered. Anyways the wine and cheese were very nice.
Got lots of compliments on my outfits.
Evening pics with random Dior liquid lipstick I tried, that I don't like because my hair sticks to it. Going to stick with regular lipstick.

WIW 6/7 The Culottes

I got the Rachel Comey denim culottes this week. I love them. Though they are longer on me than the model. By the way, they're made in mid-town Manhattan. I will have to keep an eye on other things by her.
Worn with Kenzo "No Fish, No Nothing" shirt. JCrew necklace, American Apparel aqua clutch, Tom Ford white iridescent cat-eye sunglasses, and LD Tuttle The Creature sandals. 
I even painted my toes dark blue.
Going to have lunch with a friend. Then a hair appointment, roots-be-gone.
