Forbidden Fruit







Wearing a vintage romper, Gap cardigan, Target tights, and vintage shoes and jewelry.
I just love this set of pictures! It reminds me of "Beauty and the Beast" meets "Adam and Eve". They kind of remind me of an Art Nouveu faerie tale.
Almost forgot! Please go to cumberlink.com and vote Miss Ruth's Time Bomb the best clothing store of the year. Also, since it's required you have to vote for 4 other things, vote George's Pizza best local pizza, Papa John's best franchise pizza, Casa Mani best coffee house, and Carlisle Arts Learning Center best art gallery. Thank you! =)
Oh, thanks to Imogen of Tia_Cherie, for passing me on her Phashion Fanaza! award. I pass it on to:
The Seeker
Dapper Kid
Yiqin (i always mess up the spelling of your name! many apologies!)
Well, you'll probably hear from me soon, as I have nothing else to do...
Mwah! Mwah!

Your headband is gorgeous! It really sucks to have mono. I wish you as speedy a recovery as your mono will allow! At least we'll get to see more of your great outfits!

You ARE the perfect combo of Beauty and Eve! Love the headband. I loved looking at and wearing my Grandmas old jewelry...such good memories!

Sorry to hear you have mono, but like you said utilize the time for things that you've wanted to do like starting that novel of yours...wonder what the plot is?????

Hugs,
Karyn

I'm sorry you're sick!! That really sucks. Hopefully, despite your sickness, your summer will get better.
On a happier note, those photos are stunning. I love your tights and headband.

you look so lovely. Love the headband :)

Cafe Fashionista said...

Your headband reminds me of the 20s Flapper girls I love so much; while your choice of tights and shoes - and, of course, the crimson lips, pale skin, and blood red apple - bring to mind Disney's Snow White. Love it! :)

Dina-Dyorre said...

The combination of red and blue has always been a favourite of mine...your striking tights and the apple, so pretty :) And I agree with Cafe Fashionista, very Snow White. But the angle on the first photo reminds me of Alice in Wonderland, just the way the bottom of your body is ever-so-slightly smaller, like you are Alice shrinking...Very interesting and somehow...other-worldly?

I love taking photos with apples :)

Claire said...

Fantastic photos and I just love your headband!

Parapluie said...

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear you're not feeling well, I hope it'll be better soon!

Damsels said...

oo love that headband and your romper . you have great makeup. im in a quite a rush at the moment so i coudnlt read the whole post . but i dol ike these pictures .thanks for the comment

The Haute-Shopper said...

I love those pictures of you... very fairytale-ish indeed and you look great as usual. So sorry to hear about all the less fortunate events. There's nothing worse than sitting at home not being able to do all the stuff you had planned. I was quarantined right before Christmas (I somehow managed to get chickenpox if you can believe that... I'm hardly a child anymore) and had to cancel a trip to the UK I had been looking forward to. So annoying, especially when you're actually feeling ok and not that sick. Hope the time will quicker than you expect!

the headband and the tights are just amazing! love it!

La Couturier said...

I love the sequins (:

Hummmm cette pomme rouge me donne envie!!!!

Demi said...

thank you for your questions honey, they have now been answered :-)
wow, you look amazing! fabulous photo!
I am sooo sorry to hear that you have been feeling sick honey - but I guess the positive of not going out is that you can really get things done before school starts? you could do lots of DIYs, make clothes, read books....anything!
hope you're feeling better soon, though! (:

Amelia said...

It really sucks that you had to miss that party! The 50s is one of my favorite decades.

I'm glad you commented on my blog so I could find yours, your style is great :) You've probably got this before but you look a great deal like a prettier softer Anna Paquin to my eye...

betty said...

lovely pictures. And what a beautiful headband

Kait said...

Thank you for stopping by my blog!

These photos are beautiful. They definitely remind me of a fairytale. That headband works perfectly with your flowing locks : )

I am so sorry you have mono! My best friend is also battling it at the moment and it is really all around lame and awful to have. It will be over eventually though and you can return to all the things you love. I am sorry about missing out on the thrift extravaganza you so wanted to attend. Hopefully there will be another chance soon!
