My New Boudoir!

Soooo I recently moved into a new house!!! This is my dressing room, the lair! I think I went a little bright on the walls, but what's life without a little color!? I happen to think this is pretty true to my Piscean nature, it's fanciful, romantic, and a bit odd with plenty of personal touches, feathers, and flowers!

^^Above is a sketch of yours truly, drawn by an extremely talented Venice, CA based artist named Christina Angelina. She is as beautiful as her work, check her out.!
www.christinaangelina.com You will be blown away! And yes, I'm in a tutu, it's how I belong!
^^I know technically, since this is a vest it should be in my closet, but how can I store this away?! It's become a piece for decor, I actually have never worn it, it simply hangs for show! but i WILL wear it! It's too dreamy not to rock, but I'll prob have to wait until Leo !! To the far right is my Vanity, that I adore for it holds the colors i put on my face and all my cherished necklaces! On the wall: I love things a little off, hence the anti symmetry. Up there are some personal photos of fam (specifically all the women in my life in the big light pink frame in the corner....it's my fav for many reasons, mostly though because everyone who comes in my room thinks it's me receiving my blue belt in karate..do you see it?! well it's not! i'm in a bassinet swing at my christening!!! hahaa idk.. i suppose i see the karate thing. To completely contrast the purity of my christening photo : beneath a photo of Natalie Wood as GYPSY ROSE LEE, a famous Burlesque Dancer!

"DON'T LET THE FLOWERS FOOL YOU!"
Ahhhhhh the cocoon....Where the dreamer dreams. Need I say more


So that's all folks...just a little look into my cave : )

"CHICKASSO"

"If i were a painter.."
Had a lovely day off, went to go buy new flowers (which is one of my favorite things to do)

wearing: Purple tank dress, Light green and purple watercolor looking scarf, broken leather tall brown boots, printed multi-colored bag, brown suede hat with two paint brushes in the side (we skipped the feather in the hat and went right for art supplies)

"RANCH DRESSING"

ok, so i should preface this with I hate all country looks, but for some reason i've been lookin' kinda farmgirl-ish. Anywho..here, i just finished brushing the horse at the ranch orrrrr went to my job wearing: Denim overall jumper, mauve burnout loose shirt, lace cut off shorts underneath overalls, brown/beige striped over-the knee socks, sand colored worn in boots, big silver rings
*everything about this look is 'worn in'..the denim, the burnout shirt, the boots.....it's a great contrast from Aries...there is plenty of texture and mixing patterns. That is a vital for Taurus

"MOCCASINNERS AND SAINTS"

^jacked this war paint make up idea from my best, Erin Dennison, kick ass artist and human!


ok, computer went into a coma again... so let's play catch up!

I'm as happy as a pig in shit now that i get to wear my ripped and worn, loose and fringed!

Wearing: Dark teal floral printed long sleeve shirt, ripped and worn cut off jean shorts, brown leather belt, brown braided sandals, long peace sign necklace and long feather and turquoise necklace, yellow leather bag

*texture and layering is key! Different patterns and multiple layers help give the taurus look dimension and style! Everything here has texture from hair to accessories to shoes...It makes it feel very carefree and relaxed.

Wearing: Virgin Mary t-shirt, dark denim jeans, sand worn in boots (same bottom half as yesterday), Brown leather belt, Green scarf, 2 earrings in left ear- Turquoise beads and blue feather, and a bindi (just to make this outfit multicultural, plus i just loveee bindis)

My computer was shot, but now it's back!! Just in time to wind down Aries, and start up Taurus!..By Tuesday, i'll be saying a long awaited farewell to Aries, and Hello to a whole new and more free spirited look! Can't wait!

NEW OUTFITS

Getting my outfits together for the remainder of the week ...it's so much easier when you plan ahead. Along with astrological organizing, I keep an order for my clothes. Not just color coded either. Basically, I have my wardrobe planned out for the month. I organize it in a specific manner, then I just let it unfold, and check a week in advance to visualize what the week will look like. Of course, there's always room for changes and playing, but order is key here! This upcoming week is looking pretty "americana"...we shall see!

"PURPLE REIGN"

*Today I look like a girl dressed in her gay best friend's clothes.
Opened Shop today ..wearing: Purple sweater, Yellow collar necklace, paint splattered and torn khakis with chain hooked on belt loops, grey patent leather 'mens' shoes
(later I added a jean jacket and tied a silk scarf to the chain, amped it up a bit!)

"HELLO KITTY"

*a ballet flat is an Aries' best friend, and in a bold print like leopard, they're her bff

Worked, worked, worked all day in a Grey loose fitted long sleeve shirt (i loveeee shirts in this cut. It's intentionally baggy..but cut shorter in the front and longer in the back..kind of like a great shirt version of a mullet...hmm questionable) anywayy..i paired it with off white slightly torn jean rolled at the ankle. The shape of the outfit reminds me of the early sixties (hense the full pomp of "bridget bardot-esque" hair. ), a brown belt, Black Michael Kors bag, LEOPARD print ballet Flats
*The neutral /classic colors allow me to have that pop of print on the shoe that really make the outfit stand out!

SWIMMING IN THE DEEP BLUE V"

Had an audition early in the day...keep in clean and simple Killer heels...i really mean killer, these are some serious sitting shoes..not for dancin'Luckily, I got to change into these for the rest of the day as I moved boxes into my new house!Got a bit more comfy and tossed on a straw fedora to pull focus to my noggin'
*my DEEP BLUE V-neck was the only thing that made it through the whole day!
Started out wearing: Deep Blue V-neck t-shirt tucked into Dark Blue skinny jeans, and Black ultra strappy heels.
Changed into: Deep Blue V-neck t-shirt, Jean cut offs (cut from old jean pants), Grey cardigan, Blue moccasins, Straw fedora hat with black and white check bow.
