Yellow Brick Road






After watching a creepy countdown on young girls being kidnapped and vanishing into thin air on E! last night, I came across this really great article. Safety Tips for Women (and men, too!) Be safe out there, folks! On a more cheerful note, who else has a celeb-crush on Freckles... aka.. Evangeline Lilly from Lost? She's peeking out of my bag from the cover of one of my favorite Elle magazine issues (May 2006). I need to buy Lost Season 4...... haven't seen it yet. I need to have it.


Trash & Luxury t-shirt. Gap shorts. Vintage Vest and Beret. Forever 21 sunglasses. Ash wedges. Target bag.

You're listening to: Pink Martini - Brazil

I love the photos. You rock those shoes, girl.

LOVE those pictures!

Hannah said...

Gorgeous pictures - I love the landscape! Unfortunately I couldn't disagree more about Kate from Lost - I think she's the most annoying character I've seen on a TV program, ever. But to each her own!

NADINE said...

really great shots!!

awesome outfit!

ooh season 4! I forgot how much I was missing a weekly dose of Sayid in my life until just now.

You should start watching Lost again! From season 4 through the 5th there's so much new stuff going on! I love it! Definitely one of my favorite shows!

Stardust and Sequins said...

i dont know if you planned this or if it just worked out that way but i like how the colors of the magazine cover match your outfit to a perfect TEE literally :-) and those shoes always have me salivating for a pair, too bad they are already sold out.....

Erika i so like and love the song because it totally suits your outfit and mood and of course your looking gorgeous in those shoes my favorite is the view of the wedge heels in #3.

Kimmy said...

have you ever thought of wearing your hair this way http://images.shareapic.net/images6/018739652.jpg I bet it would look good. Just for fun. I love Kim so had to share an idea..

Antonio Barros said...

Amazing pics!!!

Kat said...

Love your beret! I'm a recent covert to 'Lost'...the hubby convinced me it's worthwhile.

Anna G said...

I totally get freaked out by those kidnapping TV shows. Also my mom was told not to watch Taken because it suppose to have the girl be studying abroad and I don't want to scare her when I leave.

Also agreed with how gorgeous Evangeline Lilly is.

Elaine said...

GREAT pictures!!! I love your shoes...They make your legs look miles long.

I absolutely love your outfit and the photography is great, what camera you use?

Natalie said...

What a great look! The shoes are hot :)

Victoria said...

Love the photography (especially the second picture) and the set of the shoot. Those wedges are a killer too! I love Freckles, and I love Sawyer who calls her that ;) You need to watch Season 4 before the new season comes out! I recently got hooked on Lost a few months ago, and finished all the seasons within 2 months--needless to say, it was a lot of tv watching!

xoxo,
Victoria

styleantagonist said...

Hey! i am early this time.. it's hard to be within top 10 to comment due to the time difference.. :D Your wedges are so cool! You look so senselessly chic here. You put on yellow very effortlessly. Its a dangerous color and one can hardly go safe with this color but you did, Bravo! As usual, you look incredibly fit & beautiful. i love how you make your pictures look old. Very creatively done. Have yourself a nice day ahead.

maggie said...

gorgeous photos! i love your shoes and the colorful sunglasses :D i love the location of these shots too. :D

Sophia said...

The vest is super super cool! And your photo effects are wicked :)

KAELA said...

I love the photos - great old style to them.
Loving the outfit too.. you always have your own personal style! It's nice to see a blogger that isn't following every single trend in the book.

...annnnnd I'd be pretty happy if I had your wedges!
Haha.. maybe that should be added to the safety for women guide: Don't wear your wedges alone, some weird blogger might rob you of them and use any brutal force necessary. Ha.. ha..

OK... I'm done with my stupid rant! :)

Great outfit,
thanks for the link to that article :)

MITICA ILLUSTRATIONS said...

wooow, loove the vest is just stunning!!

KateMossFan said...

Girls vanishing.. Those things always creep me out too. After watching/reading things like that, I always dress like a guy when I go out after dark, just not to get kidnapped. ^^ I never listen to music on my headphones after dark either, because, as they said in the "Women safety tips", it dulls the senses.
Evangeline Lilly! My cousin watched Lost for a time, and she also liked Evangeline Lilly best, I think! The colours on your ELLE issue fits so perfectly with the colour scheme of your photos!
FOrever 21 seem to have awesome things, they don't look cheap at all! Those sunglasses look like Ray-Bans!

anhesty said...

cute outfit and i love the vintage feel of the photos.

X.o.X.o my dear !

Olga said...

I love your shades!

♥ fashion chalet said...

THANK YOU SO MUCH !!! :)


I believe Shopbop.com may still have some pairs left of these sandals, check 'em out. If not, eBay had a few left the last time I checked. They are "The Banyan" wedge by ASH. :)


I do hope you are all taking precaution outside, especially at night. Follow safety tips at all times. And this applies to guys just the same.
