♥ Fashionably Moi! ♥

Wearing: Heritage 1981 Cable Knit Cardigan in Cream via Forever 21; Forever 21 Basic Knit Tank in Coral; Forever 21 Fab Stitched Skinny Jean in Indigo (worn as cuffed crop); Diane von Furstenberg Pandora Wedge Espadrilles in Nude; Rhinestone Arrow Connector Ring via Forever 21.

Reading: Last Night at Chateau Marmont by Lauren Weisberger.

Glamourizing: Nails: OPI Alpine Snow. Lips: mark Pro Gloss Hook Up Plumping Lip Shine in Swell. Eyes: mark I-Mark Custom Pick Eye Shadow in Biscotti.

Listening: Heatwave by Chiddy Bang (feat. Mac Miller). Oui, I am totes in the throes of un petit obsession with this song. Aimer au dixième pouvoir!

Adoring: Shoshanna. Say it with me now, darlings…Shoshanna. It has a très glamorous ring to it, mais oui? The Twist Bikini Top and Loop Bikini Bottoms in Provence Floral; the Birds of Paradise Bikini Top and Bottom in Multi; the Strapless Lace Dress in Ivory. Gimme, gimme, gimme! Aviator Sunglasses. They could never replace my love for Oversized Sunnies, but that most certainly doesn’t stop me from swooning over pretties like Marc by Marc Jacobs’ Plastic Aviator Sunglasses, Ray-Ban’s Oversized Aviator Sunglasses, and DITA’s Condor Aviator Sunglasses. Fabulous footwear sporting ambrosial ankle straps a la Report Signature’s Carle Ankle Strap Platform Sandals, Sigerson Morrison’s Pointy Flats with Double Ankle Strap, and Giuseppe Zanotti’s Snake Platform Pumps with Ankle Straps. There is something so saucy about a well-placed ankle strap, n'est-ce pas? I can never resist their lure!

Watching: Pretty in Pink. Memo to Andie (aka Molly Ringwald), you should have ended up with Duckie (Jon Cryer). Enough said.

Desiring: Rebecca Minkoff Python Skinny Jeans in Python. A slightly more demure answer to the typical rebellious leather pants; yet every bit as capable of making one feel like a rock star. J’adore! Rachel Pally Porter Slouchy Tank Top in Petal. The color, the scoop neck, the daringly low back, the ruching at the neckline…I don’t believe there could ever be a more fabulous combination - me le donner maintenant! American Apparel’s The Siren Dress. Made for a movie star in training, J'ai raison? The juxtaposition of Old Hollywood Glamour, coquettish charm, and seductive sophistication is beyond. Je. Meurt!

Quoting: Carrie Bradshaw - “Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed. Maybe they just need to run free ‘til they find someone just as wild to run with them.”

Awaiting: Marc Jacobs Lipstick Pen. There is nothing so fabulously flirty and coquettish than a writing utensil modeled after a tube of crimson lipstick, am I right? Aimer l'amour!

But enough about moi; let’s talk about…vous. Time to give me the lowdown on your life, lovers! What are you up to this week?


Fashionably yours!

So many things I enjoy about pretty in pink that have nothing to do with the storyline. Her room, her hat. The car. I just watched Some Kind of Wonderful, other night..and saw Hughes version of Duckie as a female. Watts was such a strong character.

Cool lippy pen!

ivy's closet said...

So many cool things to want in this post.

lucy and sarah said...

Really must try that lipstick pen.

Joanne said...

I've been having a hard time finding tank tops I like this season. I'm liking that slouchy one you're showing, it has a nice look to it.

Unknown said...

Tights Lover said...

The skinny python jeans are amazing...I love them!

Also loving the Birds of Paradise bikini...although that might be just because it reminds me of a Yoga pose ;-).

Do you really read a new book every week? I feel like I barely get any reading done anymore...I've been collapsing into bed every night lately instead...hahaha! Hope you're having a great week!

Jennifer Fabulous said...

How is that new LW book?! I haven't read anything of hers in years! And as you may know, I'm a bookworm too and you heavily influence me. Haha. ;)

Kelly-Ann Maddox said...

Pretty in Pink <3 :) Great list. I need to make one.

Unknown said...

That book looks interesting. I just haven't found a 'white' nail polish I like yet.

Natasha said...

I love the Shoshanna clothes. Colorful and dreamy indeed, and thank you for saying what I've been thinking all this time re: Pretty in Pink. Duckie is forever!

Leia said...

I watched Pretty in Pink a few days ago! I felt bad for Duckie, hehe.

I love your Espadrilles. I love the movie pretty in pink, and totally agree. Also, that quote from SATC is one of my favorites from the series.

stylenuggets said...

Your book choice reminded me of 'Somewhere' which was set in the Chateau Marmont. Quite a good albeit slow movie

S and O said...

I'm looking forward to the Marc Jacobs Lipstick pen too. Gotta love it :D

First of all, you rock my world for watching Pretty in Pink. Duckie was the bomb. Nuff said.

Had a blast trying on over-sized floppy hats recently with my best gal pal ;)

Jaime @ laviejaime said...

Oh to Be a Muse said...

i like the python skinny jeans and the two rag and bone jeans on the same page!

Gracey Williams said...

Love Chiddy Bang! I saw them in concert last summer it was so awesome! And I love that Carrie Bradshaw quote :)

I think this all sounds like a great situation to be in!

Cindy Whitehead said...

Barbara von Enger said...

And I like the light coming in through the window behind the bed.
