Rodarte

Rodarte laser-cut leather leggings under cutoffs and with a croptop?! J'adore! And love the hair Ali Michael is sporting in the center shot.

Perfect Weekend

God the weather was perfection this weekend, warm and still and tres sunny! And I had the weekend off work - so made sure I enjoyed it.

On Saturday morning I went to the Stolen Girlfriends Club sample sale that I mentioned. It was AWESOME. Picked up some things I have wanted for-ev-er. I find the trick with sales is only buy things that you wanted full price.

I got these insanely sick current season Stolen Girlfriends Club torn skinny jeans. And I mean skinny - so tight.

They fit like a dream!! Have never had jeans that actually fit everywhere - including my scrawny weak ankles and my ass (which is akin to that of a thirteen year old boy - and usually where pants are loose). I remember trying them on in Black Box a few weeks ago and loving, but not wanting to pay full price for jeans that I was scared of putting my foot through and tearing in half. So so glad I got them now though, have worn them non stop all weekend.

Got myself one of their mens tie-dye tees from their Summer 08/09 collection too. Such nice cotton, so soft. Mens tees always fit my so much better than womens. That should bother me, but it so doesn't.

Also got some hot little Ksubi cut-offs. Will def be layering these over grey wool tights as it gets chilly!

Today we went to Kraftbomb. I've been wanting to go for ages, but was always working the weekends it was on. It was fab! So inspiring, loved seeing so much amazing nouveau-craft. Such a resurgence. As the females in my fam are all a v crafty bunch we just loved it. The sis got a couple of the to-die-for cupcakes from NZ Cupcake Queen; caramel and redbull (redbull flavoured cupcakes! Omg! They were tres delish). We also got a gorgeous vanilla scented candle in a floral teacup. Too cute.

However highlight of le sunday was def me finally paying off my white lace Karen Walker top. So worth the wait. It is simply stunning.

Also tried on the grey jacket that I have been coveting since seeing it the show on friday night. Fits like a dream, perfect weight etc. Unfortunately its a bit out of my financial league, and would feel tres guilty putting it on the Birthday Wishlist. Ohwell!

Sequins + Denim = Always Gold

I die for this girl's top. Low back, sequins, long sleeves and denim go together so well - all balance each other out.

Lets Do... Bike Shorts And Cut Offs

My bike shorts (and silky shorts - more on those soon) from American Apparel arrived last night! Wore them for the first time today and LOVED todays outfit. New skull tee, with bleached rolled cut offs (another DIY) and my white bike shorts. I love that the two pairs of shorts are nearly the same colour but not quite, and the white bike shorts emphasize the skull print on the tee. I also wore my patent black Darlene wedges from Country Road (they are FAB and super comfy and go with EVERYTHING). I love wearing a boy-ish outfit with heels/wedges and lots of jewelry. I also chucked my soft, oversized, brown Cue blazer on when I did my Ponsonby errands this morning and it really dressed it up - nice contrast between the casual, boyish shorts-tee combo and the dressier blazer.  

Trifecta

Love this Holy Trinity together (and wore it to Kanye): 

Tiedye tee, bleached out cuttoffs, leather and silver vintage belt.
