Getting Carried Away

Jan 15, 2009







(sorry for the wrinkly skirt. i realize i should have straightened it.)



Zomg, how crazy are the sales?! I got so much stuff for like...nothing. I picked up a couple of LBDs (as if I don't have enough of those), shoes (the most amazing Alexander McQueen gladiator-cage shoes are mine :D ) and tons of accessories.

I'm so happy I could cry.


On a totally different note, I'm lusting over this Venom necklace by Bea Valdes. My poor man's version is nothing compared to her embroidered masterpieces.



The bad news?
$ 3,000+ !

lace top: thrifted, silk cashmere cardigan : massimo dutti,  velvet skirt: vintage, tulle skirt: hk,belt: marni, tights: topshop, oxfords: oasis, sunglasses: from malaysia, necklace: miss selfridge, earrings: jewelmer

ester and yiqin - gracias! :D

anon- you can use different hosts like flickr, etc. i personally use picture2life because the url for flickr (for large images) comes out too big. similarly, you can adjust the size of your picture in your computer before uploading it to blogspot.

haha. i can't believe im giving advice on something computer-related!

Those shoes are absolutely amaaazing.
When I saw the vintage Pradas, I was practically drooling. So well kept and pristine; i would've snatchd them up if they didn't cost so much.

me encanta el collar, yo esta mañana he descubierto a Bea Valdes y mi decepcion ha sido el precio de los collares, me parecen espectaculares, la web de ella está muy bien pero se ven muy pequeños, yo intentaré hacerme uno, a mi me gusta tu collar tambien, muy en su estilo. Saludos desde Madrid.
