Daily Outfit -- 10th August 2009
[ 11 August 2009 ]
Hello! Greetings! This daily outfit was brought to you by the letters O, M & G, with a helping of “It’s 93 degrees, what the hell am I doing poncing around on a rooftop?”
HELLO, LOVER.
Outfit details:
Hello! I have long hair again! Words cannot express how happy I am! It was done by Miss Bee Jellyfish, who did a STELLAR job & who I adore. We sat around at International Playgirl HQ watching television & having good, stimulating conversation. Additionally, she travels to L.A. quite a bit, so if you’re on the opposite coast & want GREAT hair, she is your girl!
Pink sequinned mouse ears from Disneyland (Nubby & Jazzi both arrive this week, so this is my excited visual salute to that — they were both with me when I picked this up!)
Vienna dress by Deux FM from Green Is Black — I just got this the other day & love it! It’s super-soft, made with bamboo & organic cotton, & it’s a really sexy, simple wrap dress. It’s also really versatile — after these photos, I slung it around my waist & knotted the straps to make it into a rad skirt.
Swarovski crystal-encrusted heart necklace bought on eBay (I have a lot of these in different colours, it is something of an obsession)
Thin pyramid stud belt from Forever 21
Sam Edelman Zoe booties, also known colloquially as “Faux-biagas”, ALSO known as the shoes I have been waiting several years for. The good news is that they are extremely comfortable — I wear them everywhere — & they’re really easy to walk in. I took the harnesses off for this outfit but you will see them in their full harnessed glory soon!
Famous 3-finger ring from GirlProps — pretty much the most obnoxious thing I’ve ever seen, hahahah.
Pink-stained fingernails courtesy of dying my hair without gloves, C-L-E-V-E-R!
Love letters & feather headdresses,

daily outfit Add Gala on Twitter!
I love the dramatic angles and colors in these photos :) Nice
so cute, I love your long hair and the photos taken from above your head!
I also have long hair but been pondering on whether to cut it short or not, haha. oxoxo
Absolutely love it!
Gala, I wish I had the courage to wear sequined mouse ears in public. Your hair looks gorgeous and those shoes are quite killer. Can’t wait to see them with the harnesses!
Hah! I have blue/green nails for dyeing my hair without gloves so don’t feel alone in your moment of un-smart.
Also while I’m at it I must add that you and your blog are both great! Kisses from Elina!
your hair looks great! i adore your accessories
Nice “famous” ring. You certainly are e-famous!
In the 3rd photo, you can only see part of the mouse ears against the sky… & at first I thought they were little viking horns!!
Why’d I always think your big crystal covered heart necklaces are Tarina Tarantino pieces? Either way, love it!
Ashe Mischief — Usually they are, but this one isn’t! It’s a no-namer, & it’s not very well made, but I like it anyway!
gala, i looked for a similar mouse ear hat when i went to disneyworld last week, but i couldn’t find one anywhere. maybe it’s because i was on the opposite coast, i don’t know, but i want them so much. anyway, you look fabulous, as always!
pardon et moi but your hair looks fucking fabulous.
Love love love the hair.
You should paint your nails pink – at least then the dye’s hidden.
YAY NYC rooftops!
I demand more photos from more locations.
The nails are such a nice touch. ;)
stunning dress, envy the necklace, you make me want to go to Disney badddd, maybe when little boy gets older, he’d love it.
and the scenery is AHHHHmazing I wish i could take photos there!! jealous.
Gala, lovely hair!
As a fellow pink tressed maiden, I am curious to know what dye you used? There is a major Atomic Pink drought, as I’m sure you know (so sad when every Ricky’s is baron), and I need to redye my locks pronto. I’m tempted to go for Manic Panic, but it just fades so quickly.
Thanks
emily — I use a combination of Virgin Rose & Cupcake Pink at the moment! I actually kinda like it, but I do miss Atomic Pink!
I’m actually quite into the stained nails – at least they won’t chip!
God, you’re just so cute; with those amazing boots you remind of some kind of fantastical gazelle woman. Only even better, because you sparkle!
you’re so fab. you make me jealous because every time i see you, i want to dye my hair some out of this world color. and those shoes are absolutely amazing. how is the dish enjoying the hair? ;)
That dress + those boots = amazing. It’s awesome that you can turn it into a skirt!
Looking utterly fabulous as always.
I adore, love, and salivate over your fantastic pink hair. Those shoes? They may be my new best friend.
Pink hair + Those shoes – The unbearable heat = A fantastic Gala Darling!
The fabric on that dress looks so perfect. The boots also look great without the straps… you could try winding some pink and purple faux-jewelled necklaces around them!
Love that you’re supporting eco-fashion! Great dress.
gala, do you know of any place to try on those glorious booties in person? i have quite wide feet and would rather give those shoes a try before plonking down the benjamins.
kim — Oui! They’re for sale at a bunch of places, check this out: www.samedelman.com/publicity/S… I also have quite wide feet & they are perfectly comfortable, so do not be afraid! Additionally, if you get them & they don’t fit, you can always send ‘em back!
I love those outfits! You’re a real inspiration.
The shoes!
Amazing pictures!
Ale.
That dress is adorable. So simple, and you dress it up so well! Keep it up!
I like the long hair much better.. great dress!
wow!! its so simple and sexy. and the hair is fabulouse longer. and the forth pics angle is awesomeness.
Gorgeous outfit. My favorite is the pic of you walking away, you have a terrific back.
I love it! The ears are so cute!
Aw I was wondering when you’d get long hairz again :]
The boots are genius and your hair looks fantastic!
so this may just be me, but for the past few days your website’s layout hasn’t been showing up for me. it’s just plain text and pictures. i just recently updated my firefox, wondering if theres some compatibility problem or if this is just my own computer problem!
You hair looks stunning I love it!
You look fabulous Gala! Still loving those GirlProps rings—I want to spell out my own, but still contemplating. Thanks so much for the new Footnotes link, I’ve been wanting the Sam Edelman booties for a while and the link I had was apparently outdated and telling me the new batch was out of stock—so thrilled they’re not! You rock them hard, I must add.
i had some ridic girlprops rings that i just recently threw out. i think i had one that said RICH. which is really really hilariously untrue (MONEYWISE, AT LEAST!)
i’m digging the ears. i have classic mickey ears i got in may when i went to disney as minnie mouse, but, i have yet to wear them around town. it’s less fun when you LIVE in florida (albeit south florida) because you know, disney is still kinda everywhere (and everyone is a fan) and you just end up being that guy who wears disney ears like you just got back from vacation and not cause it looks good with your outfit.
IF that makes sense at all.
I was curious if you use a filter when you take your pics or if you manipulate the saturation of colors later on the computer?
because I always love the crisp, saturated quality of your photos, and I am curious how you acheive that with your camera.
thanks
-Miss Paige
LOVE that dress, definitely going to have to check out Green is Black.
How is it that everything you own hasn’t turned pink yet? I always found that to be the bane of atomic pink hair =/
Oh my goodness! I now have a serious case of boot envy. They are sheer perfection.
Beautiful pics….
love your new hair! i went the opposite way today and chopped mine all off. not sure if i’m on to a good thing yet haha.
where are your favourite places to shop when you’re in wellington?
OMG the back of that dress is steamin’ hot! u look great Gala x
Gorgeous pics! Love the boots, and your awesome hair :)
Oh i want long hair again!
Some days ago the lady at the salon cut off waaaay too much :( i could cry
Wow, lovely long pink hair Gala! It reminds me that I really need to bleach and dye my roots again!
Emily & Gala: there’s a shortage of Special Effects Atomic Pink? That’s worrying! It seems to be available in the UK right now though, at least from online shops anyway! Mine just arrived in the post, so I’m very happy right now.
Gala, you are stunning,
the dress is stunning
and the boots are KRAAAZY cool.
Jealous much, i am.
xx
Fabulous outfit! Those boots are so, so hot x Sushi
gala dude, you probably already know this, but since changing your websites layout, theres an issue! it only loads like a ‘read only’ html site. well, for me anyway
Dear Gala, your new layout is not compatable with Firefox. :(
I know, my stylesheet keeps dropping out which is totally weird… But if you hit refresh, it should come back. I am having lots of issues with my server at the moment so things are not working as they should — I’m very sorry, it’s annoying me too!
There’s nothing better than ostentatious jewellery! Your hair’s looking great, and I love the sexy dress! Oh, and the boots – wow! Knockout!!!
I lovelovelove that dress!
I love the fact that you randomly wore that hat from Disneyland. It lives up to your style aesthetic. Rock on, darling! :)

Bonjour! To me they are totally true to size, I am definitely an 8 (which is what I bought) & they fit perfectly. PERFECTLY! They are about as true to size as possible! Good luck :>
