The Strokes







A little celebratory get together is in store for the weekend. My younger brother is graduating from high school, full honors. Ice cream cake is definitely in order! Hoping to catch either Star Trek or Angels and Demons in theaters this weekend. And I'm on a hunt for the perfect pair of sturdy, yet demure, stacked-heels preferably for wholesale clothing prices. And yes, I've joined tumblr.


Tee: Erge. Body con Skirt: BDG. Jacket: Vintage. Wedges: Ash.

This is great, wow do you look amazing or what? That hair and the leather with the body skimming skirt, you look hot (haute) rocker-chic is your niche. Keep it up, beautiful Erika with the long legs. ;)

KateMossFan said...

Hey, those are the sandals that I chose for the outfit I put together for you, aren't they?
The third picture is so gorgeous, as many before me have already said. You're so pretty it's unbelievable.
Have much fun at that party/gathering you're attending this weekend! You deserve all the fun in the world *hugs*
WOW, your brother is graduating!!! That'll be me next year... And ice cream cake, definitely. I love that. I'll have that for my graduation too.
I hope to catch Star Trek too, but I haven't yet found anyone who would watch it with me...
Hey, here are some stacked-heel shoes I like:
http://www.asos.com/Irregular-Choice/Irregular-Choice-Ruffle-Front-Stacked-Heel-Sandals/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=469197#parentID=-1&pge=0&pgeSize=20&sort=-1
Yes, the link is killer long, but I'd be happy if you checked them out and told me what you thought of them! I thought maybe you'd like them.
What exactly is tumblr? What is the difference to a blog?
I can't emphasize enough how much I love your sandals. They have a pretty high heel!
I hope you'll answer my questions, I'll check back here, okay?

Wishing you a wonderful relaxing weekend, Erika!

Went to "Angels and Demons" (or Illuminati as it´s called here) yesterday. As I did not read the book I didn´t know anything about the story line; the german voice of Tom Hands was a little bit strange, sounded like he got a new denture and was not able to speak ... ;)

Cannot leave without letting you know that I loved to see your photos!

Stay Beauty
