Vintage Bouquet


{ James Jeans Reboot Powder, Forever 21 blouse, Gap x Pierre Hardy wedges,
Vintage buckle bag courtesy of Fashops
}

I had the most delicious pineapple mint tea today... must find the recipe!!!



The amount of stretch in these jeans is unbelievable. They are so lightweight and not starchy in any way whatsoever. I love how they melt into every flattering curve.



I was asked if my blouse was vintage. I think that's what first attracted me to the piece in the first place. It's actually Heritage 1981 by Forever 21. One of my favorite sections in the store...



I never really realize how long my hair actually is, until I see it in pictures. I'm thinking of cutting it again. I want it to be a bit "piecier" as well as a few inches shorter.

when i had long hair, i never realized how long it was either--until i'd find it like, resting in my plate of pasta! i wasn't very good with it ;)

i was just thinking its been SO long since i bought a pair of jeans. i want some skinny dark ankle length ones ala isabel marant for fall. im too short to pull of these wide legs that are coming back, but they look great on you!

F21 always has the cutest pieces.

I just spent away my money there today actually :]

And, don't cut your hair!! I cut my hair about 6 months ago and my hair is taking forever to grow back. It's at that awkward shoulder length that nobody likes.

Those shoes are to die for! I have been searching for a good pair of wedges but Thailand has apparently decided not to invest in the style... they are no where to be found!

Anna Pope said...

Those shoes are adorable. Love the bows, so whimsical. And that bag is gorgeous!

I love long hair but I always thought that it always needs a trim from time to time to stay healthy. Plus, it always grows better when you get rid of tired ends :)

Karoline said...

Gorgeous look Erika!

Amy said...

But I thought you missed your LONG hair? ;) Great bag.

Please don't cut your hair! I live vicariously through it's length :-)

Until mine gets to the same length, THEN you can cut it. Deal?

Adore this outfit...each piece is rather lusty.

Hi Erika - Love the new look of your blog. Also, I don't know if I've ever seen you in jeans! (I was internet-deprived while camping last week & I come back to see all these jean posts on your blog!)

Anyhoo, I forgot to mention that I linked to your site and Alejandro's in my last post: http://www.fashionbargainista.com/2010/08/bargain-break.html
