04.19.12: Louise Loves
Elle Mexico, April 2012. Source. Hi all, I hope everyone is having a good week! Yesterday was my first day in 2 weeks where I didn’t feel the weight of massive deadlines weighing me down. This week has given me a little breathing room and a chance to focus on some freelance and other things....
Arm Candy: show off those wrists!
Bracelets are a great way to accessorize an otherwise basic outfit. Whether it’s vintage or new, bangles and bracelets look great stacked. Here are a few street style links to inspire you. Bangles get patriotic. You’re invited to the Arm Party. Bangles have a sweet side. Vintage bangles always stack up. More Bakelite beauties. Bracelets in...
Shoesday Tuesday – Mint Condition
Loving this #26941 sandal from Veletto. Maxi skirts, denim capris, cuffed cotton shorts…the outfit options are endless. The architectural shape makes them a little tough but the pastel green keeps them sweet. Find them here.
Style Sheets: Random girls!
Random photos that ended up on the same page in one of my fashion notebooks. Good hair, bold brows and bright lips. Ain’t nothing wrong with that. A few of these are definitely Teen Vogue (They always does such a good job styling their shoots), and I’m pretty sure the one on the upper right was Lucky...
The Powder Room Tries: Too Faced — Better Than False Lashes
I had the opportunity to try out the newest Too Faced mascara, Better Than False Lashes before it’s available in stores (Edit: it will be $35, and will last 4 months!). I am kind of mascara obsessed, so I was really excited about this. Since I do some pinup modeling, and love to get all...
Shoesday Tuesday: Fall in love with Cece L’amour
Some of you may be familiar with Celine, The Shoe Girl. If not, her blog is a great read, and her insight into the shoe and fashion industry in general is really interesting. A few months ago, she launched her own line, Cece L’amour. While styles sold out quickly most places (way to go, girl!),...
04.05.12…make that 04.06.12, Louise Loves (better late than never!)
Hello lovelies! Sorry for my lateness, it’s been a hell of a week. All GOOD stuff, don’t get me wrong! But I feel like I’ve been going a million miles an hour since LAST weekend, and I’ve been getting to bed late, and it’s just worn me down. I did find some awesome links this...
Frock Friday: Vintage Fix-it
I got this dress over a year ago because it fit me, and I fell in love with the beautiful printed silk. Problem is, after I got it home, I discovered the armpits of the dress were rotting away and full of holes. So, it sat around in my closet until I got the name...
Style Sheets: Back to my files! 50′s Euro Chic from Lucky magazine
I’ve kept this image in my files for several years because I find this modern take on 50s inspired European style perennially inspiring. Women like Sophia Loren and Gina Lollobrigida embraced their sensuality and it informed their personal styles. I love the combination of structured and easy pieces like pencil skirts and peasant blouses with the addition...
Frock Friday: Stripes for Spring!
Ahh, a work day look, not the most exciting. But it’s outdoors! Glorious Spring is here! So I got the bag I am carrying here because I ruined a purse I got at the end of last year by carrying around so much stuff. This thing seems indestructible, which is a good thing. I’ll keep my...
