The Gang's All Here

Miss Ruth's Time Bomb top; vintage Oscar de la Renta headscarf; vintage Dooney and Bourke purse; everything else vintage.
Dosn't this outift remind you of Carmen Miranda? I just love the super bold colors and statement accessories! Anyway, my most sincere apologies for being a lousy blogger...this has been one super hectic week of classes. Well, gotta run!
Mwah! Mwah!

You are definitely the queen of the updo & turban/scarf pieces. Love the splashes of yellow and aqua in this outfit. The accessories are amazing too, I can imagine the sounds of all your bangles clinking together.

Lydia said...

Um, I just took some time to peruse some of your posts, and you are crazy awesome. You are brilliant. That one-sleeve gold top??? You're my hero. Thanks for your comment.

La Dama said...

Yea, i was going to say your vestido inspires carmen miranda amor.
Yellow polka top combo with turquesa look awesome.
Love that gingham skirt and belt.

deppa said...

Yeah I can see a little bit of Carmen, but first I thought: Oh! Frida Kahlo!
You are looking pretty :)

See you!

You are the exemplification of beautiful Hope.
I adore everyone of your postings.

Your style is eccentric, and always refreshing.
I want to visit you in the Summer.
I'm planning on traveling through and maybe we'll find ourselves in a coffee shop, or disco, singing or dancing together.

Cloud of Secrets said...

I love the complex but pure use of colors here -- in your styling and photographing. I feel like I usually see mixed brights like these in minimalist looks, not in more romantic/bohemian shapes and layerings. Nice melding of ideas!

So colorful and oh so wow!!!
