pocahontas


sweater: vintage, shoes: random french store, rings: h&m, shorts:h&m



Oh yes, I finally decided to wear my suede H&M shorts yesterday, fully equipped to take on the wild city with my brown loafer/moccasins. Channelling the Pocahontas-on-a-Parisian-adventure-vibe. As I can recall Pocahontas was super hot, I really wanted to be her when I was little...who wouldn't want to have a rocking bod, perfect hair, a dashing boyfriend AND the ability to talk to a willow tree? I know I did.
Also one of my favorite bags ever I found this in a vintage store in Bangkok, the owner was such a sweetheart, she had an amuh-zing collection of bags, jewelry and what have you.
(she didn't even want to sell some of the things because she was so attached to them haha they were only on for 'display purposes' but she finally succumbed to my mother's persuasive powers and bargaining mastery!)
Those against fur or leather or any of that sort please don't judge, but that's an entire python on my bag right thur. Which is something I try not to think about when I use this bag.

the golden age.

I don't know where my mum got this vintage brass shell bag from but it's so beautiful, like a byzantine artefact. I'm waiting until I find a dress or outfit, sort of like a soul-mate to this bag so that I can take it out in its gilded glory again. Right now it's just hanging on the mannequin's shoulder in my room...being very patient...


Which takes me to: The Chanel pre-fall 2011 collection that I found on knightcat that I adore, I'm thinking one of the beautiful Byzantine inspired dresses will be a match for my lonely little golden bag...thing is she'll have to wait even longer until I can conjure up those kind of sums to pay for a dress...
