The original jumpsuit

Yep that's me all those years ago and pissed as hell of taking a photo in this little white jumpsuit. I hated it. Even worse I hated the "ball" hairstyle. The 1970s were ridiculous.

White peasant dress

At first I was really in love iwth this white peasant dress that I found at TK Maxx and thought it would be great for a holiday. Right now I am unsure. It just doesn't have that fullness or flounce that I have seen with other peasant dresses. I have a chili pepper red peasant dress from Newport News that I bought years ago and I like it a lot. However this white one does not do a lot of justice. The top is cute and all but the skirt is a bit narrow. Most peasant dresses have a full skirt but not this one. It just cut straight and narrow and not very figure flattering. Hopefully as I will loose more weight it will look better and possibly towards the end of summer.

The Designing Women tee

I love this t-shirt from Dillard's; the art and colouring is really sweet. It's a burn-out design so yes it cost a lot. Or at least a lot by my standards for a t-shirt. I've named it the Designing Women tee.
I love the messy hair also. Not that big of a fan of the everyday black chick with silky straight hair. The rock chick look is fab for me.

The Aftershock

Aftershock is one of my favourite shops to go to in London. They have nice cool party wear--yeah it can be expensive but they have some good clearance sales from time to time. I love these cute and sexy little tops. They are great and colourful and go well alone of under a jacket. Can't wait to wear this one.

Almost there

I have been trying to find the perfect cami to go with this top jacket. So far the only one that comes closest to the look I am going for is this one that I found at a charity shop in Westbourne Grove yesterday. Actually I am looking for something with a smooth clean finish. The vanilla top is by Almost London. I think I will add some colourful blue beading to the flower on the top. The black skirt is fabulous for the look. It came from Aftershock in Chelsea. This will be a smart look for a summer evening event. Now I gotta find some good black strappy heels to complete it.

Exotic earrings

I love these types of earrings and they don't have to be the real thing as long as they are not too big or too long. I could not find the ones I wanted in Istanbul. The ones I fell in love with at the airport were absolutely gorgeous but they were too expensive for me to buy at $560.
The pair on the left I got at a little shop in Sirkeci and the other ones came from Monsoon--LOL!

My designer bags (One real, one fake)

I have had this Oroton bag for several years now. Oroton was a great company that did really beautiful bags; too bad they closed. I think this black one was around $260 originally and I got it for $45 on Ebay new. I love this bag.
The tan saddle Dior I got at an okay price I guess in Turkey. I have been looking for this one for many years and it's the colour and style that I wanted so I splurged on it. Of course it's not real Dior but who cares?
