I hereby declare today Valley Of The Dolls day.

<3 Hair by Wildilocks; god, I love ‘em.
<3 Vintage pink nightgown (yes, really) bought off Ebay a long time ago
<3 Grey sweater from Ricochet (NZ)
<3 Yellow bow belt from World (NZ)
<3 Black stockings & vintage Mary Quant suspender belt
<3 Guess platform mary janes

Daily Outfit

I’m wearing wool! I KNOW! Summer?! Is that you?! On the evening of Valentine’s Day the temperature dropped like mad, & it seems to have stayed there. I actually wore another cardigan over this ensemble when I left the house.

Daily Outfit

I went to see He’s Just Not That Into You with my favourite girl. I actually really enjoyed it, even though I can’t ever think of Kevin Connolly as anyone but E. Scarlett Johansson was fantastic. (She is also extremely attractive.) So it wasn’t deep or anything, but I liked it. Et toi? Discuss!

Daily Outfit

...I couldn’t resist. Photoshop’s clone tool is my friend.


Love letters & feather headdresses,

  1. Grt outfit! and i agree about he’s just not that in2 u – surprisingly good! usually i find that films with loads of famous ppl in it r a huge let down. but i really enjoyed this film. my friend said she thot scarlett looked fat in the film!!! that upset me cus we r so used to seeing skinnies all the time that we think scarlett (who is prob just a uk8, us 4) is big. she’s the only one in the film with boobs! i thot she looked amazing. justiin long and ginnifer goodwin were fab – really likeable characters. all in all, best film ive seen since SATC! nxt on my hit list is confessions of a shopaholic! isla ficsher looks really gd in it.

  2. Scarlett’s body is amazing & super-hot. Your friend has a warped view of women ;D

    <3 Gala · Feb 16, 04:55 AM · #

  3. Looking good! I love thick black stockings.

    I’m being made to see HJNTIO tomorrow by my best friend. The things we do to keep our women happy…. good to hear it’s not all bad though.

    <3 Joanne · Feb 16, 05:00 AM · #

  4. The ending of the film made me want to puke especially the Jennifer Aniston story line. I felt it made women look a bit pathetic – defo one to leave your brain at home for!

    <3 ams · Feb 16, 05:14 AM · #

  5. ams — She is totally not my favourite! (Team Jolie… cough… cough…) But no I didn’t dig her character either. Thankfully we’re not all like that!

    <3 Gala · Feb 16, 05:15 AM · #

  6. Ohmygracious, Scarlett Johansson is my number one lady crush.

    You look like a perfect little doll in the last photo, and j’adore your stockings so beaucoup!! Stockings beat tights anytime, ha ha.

    <3 Jooordan! · Feb 16, 05:16 AM · #

  7. Oh, I love your outfit! And I also really like Valley of the Dolls (I should get that one on DVD some time)...
    mh…I guess I must still watch He’s just not that into you, then :)

    <3 Manja · Feb 16, 05:21 AM · #

  8. i have been lusting after a suspender belt for a while now… they are just so femme fatale.

    ...i also lust after scarlett johansson ;)

    <3 Gem · Feb 16, 05:22 AM · #

  9. Oh gosh, I cannot believe how cold it is there… although I’m quite jealous. Brisvagas is far too hot for any month or season. I’m pretty sure we had a cool change today because it was only 28 – bring out the jumpers!

    <3 zilla · Feb 16, 05:35 AM · #

  10. I saw that last week and I actually exclaimed to my friend with regard to scarlett johansson – ‘oh my god her boobs are huge!’ I could do with a bit more enhancement like that!

    The Ben Affleck proposal was hilarious!! So cheesy and funny.

    <3 kaz · Feb 16, 05:48 AM · #

  11. Can i just say Scarlett Johanson makes me feel so good about my body compared to everyone else who was in that movie… we have a similar figure and she is just hot!
    I just wish it had more Drew Barrimore… she hasn’t been in a great movie in years and only had a tiny role!

    On a side note… Loving the suspenders and the nightie revival! Tres recession chic!

    <3 Katrina · Feb 16, 05:54 AM · #

  12. Katrina — You are the envy of women everywhere! Her/your shape is completely delicious! Oh & I actually liked that the “big stars” (Jennifer Aniston, Ben Affleck, Drew Barrymore) had smaller roles than the lesser-known actors. I thought that was cool & I think it says something positive about them that they’re okay with playing a supporting role.

    <3 Gala · Feb 16, 06:01 AM · #

  13. I love this outfit. I am officially inspired for the day. :)

    <3 Mary · Feb 16, 06:20 AM · #

  14. That outfit is gorgeous and looks fantastic with the pink hair!
    I really envy how you can put together a look… I really need a wardrobe overhaul! x

    <3 Julie · Feb 16, 06:32 AM · #

  15. Love the outfit as always. And damn, your new hair looks fine! Wildlocks ftw.

    So kinda OT & on, in regards to you being on that New York list of sexy singles, if i lived in New York i’d so be asking you out teehee ~_^. I love words & adventurous dates too (dates being the times you get together, even once, you’re, well, together), and i would keep you in salads & smoothies _.

    And as someone else said – the bisexuals were definitely a sexy bunch! (Tho i only looked thru them & the lesbian ladies, since i’m in Oz, so it’s all window shopping to look at NY singles, but i figure i may as well at least window shop what’s in my size so to speak ~_^).

    p.s Scarlett Johansson is my #1 guilty girl-crush – as in those curves/lips/husky voice just un-do me, but i don’t think i’d like her as a person irl. However she is so sexy, i just wouldn’t care! Oh ethical high horse where are you? My other top girl crushes are Natlie Portman and Kate Winslet for what i’ve read/seen of the people behind the image, though they’re both beautiful ladies too of course.

    <3 Kat · Feb 16, 07:01 AM · #

  16. I am massively in love with this outfit it’s just abolutley gorgus Gala!! and i love the stocking’s i’ve
    ALLways wanted suspender stockings

    xx

    <3 Coletta · Feb 16, 07:04 AM · #

  17. I love this outfit, Gala! I think it’s probably my fave out of everything you’ve worn. It’s great when ‘clashy’ things that shouldn’t work together end up looking perfect. Nightie + jumper combo, I love you!

    <3 Abigail · Feb 16, 07:52 AM · #

  18. ADORE that cheeky yellow belt.

    <3 Sal · Feb 16, 08:35 AM · #

  19. You’re so cute Gala!
    Love the suspenders!

    <3 Amy · Feb 16, 08:44 AM · #

  20. love the outfit!! you’re adorable. ;)

    <3 emily · Feb 16, 08:58 AM · #

  21. I kept referring to Kevin Connelly as E, too! It’s impossible not to. The movie was really cute and made me love Ben Afflect a lot.

    <3 Lillian · Feb 16, 09:12 AM · #

  22. I had a vintage pink nightgown that I made sure to wear on Valentine’s Day. With proper accessorizing, silky nightgowns are fantastic to wear out and about!

    Love the outfit! <3 Andrea · Feb 16, 09:24 AM · #

  23. I absolutely ADORED Scarlet Johansen in HJNTIY! I loved the film, loved Ginnifers character and everything but mostly I just watched Scarlet’s boobs and lips and hair in envy!

    <3 Cassie · Feb 16, 09:50 AM · #

  24. I love the outfit! And the stockings…rrr! ♥

    <3 Katrina · Feb 16, 10:09 AM · #

  25. Ooh lovely jumper. I miss Ricochet, although a lot of Karen Millen pieces here can be similar to that detailing. I bought my first shirt from Ricochet when I was about 14! (tres many years ago….) and loved them ever since although some collections are more inspiring than others. I have in fact just ‘wish listed’ a dress from Ricochet, lets see if they have my size!

    <3 Jess · Feb 16, 10:20 AM · #

  26. The yellow is surprisingly perfect. I am inspired!

    <3 Nic · Feb 16, 10:26 AM · #

  27. Scarlett Johannson is BOMB, no question about it. I have never heard a guy say she is fat or unattractive, she Is The Sex. I would kill for her body! & yeah, I’m slightly thinner than her, but shaped like a 12 year old boy. She is gorgeous and womanly and unique all at the same time.

    Anywayssss…I wanted to see the suspender belt because I am morphing into a lingerie enthusiast and want to expand my collection to include more vintage stuff! I dig the overall outfit though and am still mad jealous of your mane of epic proportions.

    <3 Rachel Radness! · Feb 16, 10:30 AM · #

  28. I LOVE your outfit – especially the shoes and stockings!

    I, however, will not be seeing HJNTIY. On principle. I wrote about exactly why here:

  29. ohh cute outfit! :)
    I really liked “He’s just not that into you”! I heard it was bad, but it was a very cute girly movie…and yes Scarlett Johansson is insanely beautiful. and I want the dress she wears when she starts making out with that dude in his office.
    and I want her hair.
    and also, the environment. ;)

    <3 Caitlin · Feb 16, 11:51 AM · #

  30. Fantastic use of colour :D Also, I like it that I recognise most of your components, but that you have put them together in such a cool new way. (Wasn’t it FREEZING on Saturday night? I was desperately hunting around for long woolly socks, would you believe . . .)

    I have to say I am kind of intrigued by this movie after watching Rove and seeing something on dooce.

    <3 Nadine · Feb 16, 01:03 PM · #

  31. I enjoyed the movie more than I thought I would as well. Scarlett looked phenomenal, although I didn’t like her character as I think that no matter how much you spark with a guy, if he’s married he’s off limits, and she didn’t seem to take his marriage seriously. (To be fair to her, though, I can’t condone the guy’s actions either, AND I’ve been biased against the actor who plays Ben since seeing him in Wedding Crashers!) My favourite storyline involved Alex and Gigi.

    <3 lisa · Feb 16, 01:11 PM · #

  32. You look absolutely gorgeous! I am inspired for the day… Thankyou!

    <3 martha · Feb 16, 01:26 PM · #

  33. I loved the movie,too- I thought it would be terrible but I really, really enjoyed it. But the ending with Jennifer Aniston made me gag. Seriously.

    <3 lyra · Feb 16, 01:34 PM · #

  34. adorable outfit :)

    i may be the only one but i hated that movie

    <3 krina · Feb 16, 02:03 PM · #

  35. that belt! i need in in the US! right now!

    <3 samantha · Feb 16, 02:30 PM · #

  36. this is fabulous. you make me want to leave the house RIGHT NOW and dye my hair pink. hmm….not a bad idea. =]

    ahahah just kidding! you’re the original pinky.

    love this, and LOVE YOU.

    <3 Nina · Feb 16, 04:06 PM · #

  37. Ah! You’re the cutest!

    <3 dinah · Feb 16, 05:07 PM · #

  38. Oh Gala! As if I didn’t love you enough before – now I learn that you’re on Team Jolie (high five brother!)

    I read the book (having been shown it by a friend who was obsessing endlessly over it), and I wasn’t really impressed. I think we all tend to be ridiculous enough as it is when it comes to romancin’

    But having said that, I can see how it would translate to a really cute movie (as opposed to an advice book, ya get me?)

    Ps. Scarlett is indeed a smokin’ hottie ;)

    <3 Lola · Feb 16, 05:18 PM · #

  39. You have to be the most adorable girl on the internet, hands down. Love that outfit!

    <3 Valerie · Feb 16, 07:18 PM · #

    <3 Laura · Feb 16, 10:00 PM · #

  43. You look awesome in every pictures! I’m wondering what camera you use to take such high-def pictures?? Love your outfit Gala~~

    <3 Mynrose · Feb 17, 04:16 AM · #

  44. Mynrose — I use a Nikon D80 & I love the pants off of it!

    <3 Gala · Feb 17, 04:28 AM · #

  47. i love love love this outfit! it’s perfect!! xx

    <3 miss eltan · Feb 18, 08:09 AM · #

  48. i’m a long time lurker and i rarely comment on your posts, but i love this outfit so, so much. it’s similar to one you wore when i first discovered icing, you’d just dyed your hair that wicked violet colour and inspired me to hop on ebay and buy my own vintage nightgown :) and from what i remember you declared that day valley of the dolls day too!

    <3 tash · Feb 18, 04:47 PM · #

  49. tash — Thank you for coming out of the woodwork! & yes! That nightgown inspires many Valley Of The Dolls-esque thoughts!
