Cardigan - c/o Chicwish, Velvet Burnout Bralet - Free People (holiday gift from my dear friend Ceilidh!), Shorts - vintage cut-off Levi's, Boots - Steve Madden, Jewelry - Random (including bracelet holiday gift from Brit and bracelet holiday gift from my boyfriend)
I really dig this outfit -- I think the rich jewel tones of the Romwe Chicwish (dear lordy, I've been incorrectly listing a slew of items as being from Romwe when they are really from Chicwish -- if you like this cardigan, the cropped pullover from my last post, the holy cardigan from the post before that, and the salmon-colored party dress, you can find them at Chicwish!) cardi-thing make an interesting pair with the forest green bra/top thing. As you can tell from my outfit in these photos, it's been around 90 degree in LA for the past few days, and it's nice to be able to run around town in cut-offs.
Since I'm feeling especially braindead, I thought I'd just do a photo-oriented post in which I introduce you to my boyfriend, Lamson, of whom you have heard many things. He is my size, and my favorite articles of clothing usually come from his closet (he really does have immaculate taste). He takes most of my blog photos and is one of those people who is disgustingly good at everything they do. Were I a better model! I am a quite difficult person with whom to work, I'm afraid.
Here are some photos I snapped of him (I am not quite the photographer either, sadly):
And here are some gushy photos of us together sitting in a random patch of grass on a Beverly Hills sidewalk:
Since I am worthless with words at the moment, here is some recommended reading:
Final things worth noting:
Tunnel Vision will be up soon -- I swear!
Those of you who emailed me about drawings, I'll be getting to those in the next week or two!
love your look so much! you look beautiful

It's nice to see/meet your bf! His photos are amazing! I love your crochet/velvet ankle boots combo - so perfect and something I'd wear! I have been browsing Chicwish for a while and I'm so tempted to make a few purchases. How's the shipping?
ReplyDeletehi!! I love your blog!! now i follow you!! :D I have a blog too, but about DIY. Here's the link if you want to see it!! kisses!! http://itsmellslikeateenspirit.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteYour boyfriend looks cool, he always takes awesome pictures of you! He should have his own blog
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty colors in these! And totally appropriate December outfits for this crazy hot L.A. weather we've been having. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteBefore even reading where you stated that the photos were in a random grass patch in Beverly Hills, I already knew you were in Beverly just from looking at the first photo! That is so sad.. I haven't been there in years because I just don't think there's anything to do and I doubt that there's anything I like anymore. In middle school, I used to go with my group of friends after school to Beverly Hills and walk around (keep in mind, we were 12..), all we would do is walk into stores and purchase overpriced, cream-based lattes, ha.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, you both are so beautiful!!!! Beautiful couple with insanely rad clothes. PS I am SO excited for Tunnel Vision. PPS, I can't get over that picture of the flowers on your eyes. Putting that on Tumblr when I have time and of course sourcing this blog. Seriously one of my FAVE posts from you.
Those photos of you guys are so pretty. Give me the cardigan.
ReplyDeleteYou and your man look lovely together! Just found your blog through chictopia. Absolutely love your style and blog and can't wait to keep up with you! Hope your having a wonderful new year!

ReplyDeleteOhhhh you twooo!! Such a perfect couple your bf shoud have a fashion blog!!
ReplyDeleteSO much stinkin' love for this outfit. Srsly.
ReplyDeleteMy goodnesssss!!! This outfit is GORGEOUS. Makes me feel like getting a bralet to try out the awesome combination of a bralet and shorts! But I think I am much too shy to go out like that!! The people here in Singapore are far too conservative and it's gonna take a lot of guts! (which I'm sure I don't have at the moment!!)
ReplyDeleteAnd you and your boyfriend look so lovely together!! Somehow you two give me hope!! ♥♥
lovely pictures. you both are beautiful.

ReplyDeletexoxo
You fit together... such a cute couple.. all the best :D
ReplyDeleteHeyyy,
ReplyDeleteJust read though many pages of your blog and saw the shout out... Thank you!
You know I can be pretty snarky about fashion / fashion blogs, but I read yours religiously. Not even a guilty pleasure, your writing is good enough to justify a read on it's own and it's really refreshing to actually "read" a fashion blog that deals with certain social issues, especially those relating to being a woman in America, which are so often ignored on in the internet in general, and on some fashion blogs in particular.
Keep it up. Your post about bindis was wonderful and I look forward to more conscious fashion blogging.
