- studying for my final exam en français
- finishing "Just Kids" by Patti Smith. It's probably one of the best memoirs I've ever read. I highly, highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in the early 70's scene in NYC. It's so inspiring to follow her journey with Robert Mapplethrope, and absolutely heartbreaking towards the end. It's a beautiful elegy to the true ground-breaking genius that he was
- emailing back and forth with my love miss Frassy. Check out the new ad on my sidebar for her blog and amazing vintage shop Frassy Rags!
- kind of changing up my look. I'm not sure if I've caught the Alexa Chung bug or if I've been listening to too much France Gall, but something about looking a little more girly and put together is really appealing right now. Give me princess cut coats, pleated skirts, peter pan collars and anything velvet and mini. I tend to dress a little more ladylike when I'm in Palm Beach, and since I'll be heading there again in just a few weeks, maybe the trend is just starting early.
- going to afternoon tea with my Mum, at the same tea room we've been going to ever since I was a toddler. It's in a restored house built in 1885, and it serves the best scones as cream tea.
Wearing: NastyGal Vintage "Alexa" dress, vintage Dooney & Bourke purse and vintage Ferragamo oxfords

Whatever style you're doing, it always ends up working, and I always end up loving it. That dress is very "Alexa". But I love that you put your own spin to it.

I thought that dress was from Nasty Gal and yep I was right. Love it on you and that nail color is so pretty. I need a pink polish like that.

I'm finishing up Just Kids too and I've been fully distracted from my final projects. I'm so glad you mentioned it because EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS BOOK. I also find it eery and serendipitous when I'm on the same wave length as the people on my blog roll, ccrraazzyy.
ReplyDeletelove the dress and the bag! you're looking stunning!
ReplyDeletegood luck on french exam :)

ReplyDeleteA tea room?! How adorable! Have you ever read Faithfull, by Marianna Faithfull or I'm with the Band by Pamela des Barres? Both great for 60s/70s insights into the world of rock n roll through women.
