Frock Friday: New Year’s Frockin’ Eve
We spent New Year’s with a small group of friends at one of their houses. They had just gotten a new bar, have a terrific karaoke set up, and we all pitched in to make a delicious dinner. I have a pair of black high-waisted shorts but wanted something more formal for New Year’s. Thus,...
Frock Friday: Frocka Flocka Flame
That title…thank my husband for that! Sorry about missing the Louise Loves yesterday, it’s been a busy week. I’ve got some things saved to make next week extra good though so stay tuned. This goes back a few weeks to another of our unusually warm days before Christmas. I love layering! Scarf: Victoria’s Secret Jacket:...
Frock Friday
Last Friday night (ha, ha, like the song), we went with a few good friends to see The Latenight Callers (who played at our wedding) and Victor & Penny play at The R Bar. We staked out the big table in front of the stage and proceeded to enjoy beer and cocktails as other friends...
Frock Friday
A Saturday outfit. I did some shopping and had a meeting that day. I love layering like this in the Fall when the weather can change a lot throughout the day. Adding a vintage inspired statement necklace over something frilly just works for me lately. I call this sweater my “Franken-sweater” because I took the...
Frock Friday: Schott Bros. NYC
I almost called this post “Schott Through the Heart” or “A Schott in the Dark”, but I resisted. A few months ago, fellow Virgo and blogging queen, Gala Darling, posted some pics of her with Nubby Twiglet, in which Gala wore an amazing motorcycle jacket from Schott Bros. NYC. That’s one of those items of clothing I’ve...
Frock Friday: Secretary Casual
So you probably know, I am all about the tie neck blouses, scarves, and lady-like style. Think Maggie Gyllanhaal in the movie Secretary. Sometimes though, I want to throw on a pair of jeans, so this ensemble is perfect. I bought these shoes to wear with the Trashy Diva leopard suit I got married in....
Frock Friday: dress + denim
I decided that this dress was short enough to wear as a tunic with jeans. I like that I’ve got another way to wear it, now! Plus I am a fan of blue and black together. It wasn’t intentional, but most of this outfit is from Forever 21. Weird because I don’t own that much...
Frock Friday: 09.30.11
I wore this to work, then out to see my parents, who got into town Thursday afternoon. I am totally obsessed with tie neck tops, they are so retro secretary — so expect to see more of them! Top: Banana Republic for Mad Men Jeans: Levis Belt: Betsey Johnson Purse: Betsey Johnson Shoes: Chie Mihara...
Frock Friday: 3rd Friday Vintage
I wore this to go down to 39th Street for 3rd Friday when I went to Donna’s Dress Shop to see the coats. I got this Nelly Don suit at the beginning of the year when a Liberty Belle vendor lucked into an amazing collection of Nelly Don that had belonged to a woman who...
Frock Friday: Pink leopard, pink champagne
Here’s what I wore to work yesterday on my birthday. I didn’t even bother changing when we went to dinner, actually. It was cool outside but we just walked down the block. It was a lovely evening! Top: Anthropologie Cardigan: Forever 21, thrifted Skirt: Express Shoes: MiuMiu, F/W 2003 Handbag: Lux de Ville, Sin City...
11th Annual Greaserama Classic Car Show + Frock Friday + More
This past weekend was the 11th annual Greaserama. As we walked into the Boulevard Drive-In it definitely looked like the best turnout I’ve seen in 3 years. Saturday was not all that fun for a girl who had curled her hair and was wearing her favorite vintage day dress though. Several downpours forced us to hide...
Frock Friday: Dressed to eat
So rather than trying to do daily outfit posts, I’m adding this new feature, Frock Friday, and will attempt to post at least one outfit a week. We went to the Yelp Elite event at Nica’s 320 this past Sunday, which was quite fun. I was happy to have an excuse to wear this romper...
