Battle Star












October for me is the starting point to the Holiday kick off.... I love candy corn, costumes, pumpkin bread, wearing jackets, orange leaves, emulating Fall fashions from celebrities, models and rock stars.... feeling the weather change. What's your favorite part about Fall?

Thank you Steve Madden for these amazing Alexander McQueen ankle booties. I swear, except for missing the skull on the zipper, they are identical and just as cool. I get a Back to The Future 80's vibe from them..... This awesome jacket from The Scarlet Room made me want to play a little homage to the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson-- and his music. Thriller, is one of my favorites come Halloween time!

The Scarlet Room jacket & dress, Steve Madden Seryna heels, Bare Accessories bag, Hermes scarf.

You're listening to: Michael Jackson | Thriller

It was only after I read the post that I realised these weren't the McQueen originals, such a great copy.

My favourite thing about fall is being able to wear big furry coats, cute hats and of course trample on all the leaves with some big clunky boots!

Great blog you have here, will be back again soon :)

We ate Candy corn all day today through classes. It was wonderful. Your dress is cute, and your shoes are amazing. Plus, I really love the feel of these photographs for some reason.

ashley♥tea said...

:))))))))) your kicking it to the past but keeping it present in your eighties look ... kind of Balmain with a 90's twist and also with a French Motorcycle chick kick to it. How did you reign all 3 decades into 1? 80's + 90's+ 2000's = Fashion Chalet :)))))))))))

cookies+creme said...

Lions, Tigers and Fashion OH MY! said...

Wow the Maddens are a great replica! Your dress is perfect, the detail in the back makes it!

Anna said...

Not to seem rude or perverted in any way, but a scarf on the purse is a way hookers let people know that they are prostitutes. This is the reason why I don't put one on my purse anymore!

Catherine said...

Oh, God, the shoes. The SHOES.
They are fantastic!

KAELA said...

Sexy outfit, girl! That dress looks AMAZING on you. :) And I am totally freaking in love with your boots. I'm thinking I need to go find that pair for myself!!

TiKeDi said...

I love layering thats what I look forward to the most in fall

aka JULIE said...

I gotta say your blog always keeps my interest

Your ideas and inventions of how you put things together keeps me comeing back

The fact that you seem like a modest individual keeps me a fan!

Patty said...

Love the color of your toenails. And I want those booties for myself! :)

KateMossFan said...

Photos #4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10 have not loaded completely on my computer! :( Any idea why that is?
Oh, I like many of the same things about fall that you like - I like that it's getting darker earlier, and yes, I also like the windy, colder and rainy weather because it just feels so cosy then sitting somewhere in a café or in a cinema and spending the afternoon with friends. And of course, Fall fashions are so much fun!
I swear, I love those ankle booties. Can you zip them up any more than you did in the photos? What a shame that the detail photo of the ankle booties was one of those that didn't load..
I love "Thriller", you're right, it's so great for Halloween! And it's awesome to dance to in my opinion!

bisou-joue said...

your outfit is amazing ! your dress is so stunning, your jacket is to dye for, and your shoes are so great !!! love your outfit !

Oh, they are gorgeous (the faux McQueen booties). Just been hearing about this Steve dude thru blogs, as I guess he's not a UK thing - yet.
