Daily Outfit -- 20th September 2007
[ 20 September 2007 ]
Please excuse the ultra-serious (cyborg) expression! This outfit kind of makes me feel like Victoria Beckham if she was a riding instructor… so you know, smiling is out.
Hat by Burberry
Big pink-framed sunglasses
‘Death of the Bunny Girl’ t-shirt from Topshop
Yellow bow belt by World
Black high-waisted skirt
Boots from Dizingof
Pearls & Tarina Tarantino rings
This is a truly international ensemble. The hat is from NYC, the sunglasses & skirt are from Auckland (New Zealand), the t-shirt is from London, the belt is from Wellington (New Zealand), the boots are from Melbourne, the pearls are from Sydney… hee!
Okay, I am going on a secret mission now. Bye!
Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala

YES! that hat is the sex.
love the cute top too, i have one a bit like that but its black with pink detailing
:D
love the t-shirt and the belt way way way cute
I dig that top gala!
I’m thinking of making shirts with my designs but I’m looking at design school so I can get more technically competent at these things
you can check out my stuff if you’re interested http://twobirds.deviantart.com
Next time I see you I will have to introduce myself for sure!
you look gorgeous as usual! your hair stays sooo bright, how often do you dye it?
x yay!
The bow belt is cute. That pose of urs is very VB..hehe..anyways did u know that they have Topshop in Singapore and its a tiny bit cheaper..
I’m especially lovin’ that shirt!
And the boots too :]
I love love love this!!!! Gala, you have the most amazing style. I love how you come up with so many different looks but still always manage to look so ‘you’
Yay hat!
The shirt reminds me of Olivia Lufkin’s sketches:

Ahh, such an adorable outfit! I love the boots + shirt especially~
I really like that hat. It’s a good size; it has ‘presence’ ;-)
when i was in london in december last year, i must have gone to buy that tshirt about 5 times, and never did. now everytime you wear it, my eye twitches! ha ha.
anyways, those sunglasses make my week.
xx
You look wonderful, hun :)
I’m curious too… how often DO you have to touch up your hair?
I’m thinking of dying mine purple but it’s nearly down past my butt and therefore will likely turn out to be too much trouble.
Take care
Eee! You look great, Gala! I think my new goal for this winter is to fly over to Melbourne and steal your clothes (So not happening, but if I did i’d be the most fashionable kid in town).
Anyways, while we’re on the topic of fashion I need some help (And would rather comment than fill up your inbox with questions).
My problem is that my glasses seem to destroy any outfit I wear. Whenever I slide them on, the outfit automatically looks about ten times geekier. The problem is, unless I get insanely good marks in school, chances are i’m going to have to deal with glasses for a while. Help? Please?
I love that t-shirt! Too bad converting pounds to dollars means that hardly anything TopShop is witihin my college student budget, especially with shipping. Maybe it’ll be better whenever I get a chance to go to London (February?)
I love that tee shirt :)
And your tattoos look awesome!
Also, Annabel, as a sometime-glasses wearer, I just wanted to say that a great way to jazz up glasses is to line your eyes really well, so they pop against the frame – also, if you have dark circles or tired eyes (like moi!), make sure to use some under-eye concealer. Glasses create a shadow under the eye, so it’s important to brighten that area before wearing them…. Finally, I think a great, adventurous haircut works wonders, especially with jazzing up glasses, if you are so inclined. Hope this helps!
You are so incredibly adorable!
I have those shades. I looooove big sunglasses.
Annabel — I think you should embrace your inner nerd! Nerds are cool!
Seriously, though, all my glasses wearing friends (and myself, if I do say so) look just as cool with specs as we do without them. I don’t think glasses necessarily ruin your look, at all. I just like to think of it as another accessory.
I love that yellow bow belt!! So cute! Bows were on my list of things I love this week.
Annabel, I feel your pain! In high school, I had terrible dorky frames until I went out and found my own at a vintage store- they were baby blue cat’s eye glasses with rhinestones across the top. I loved them SO much, until I got sick of glasses all together: I like contacts much better. I’ve worn them for about 10 years now & I’ll never go back to glasses.
But, I digress- my advice is to buy a vintage pair!! They’ll probably cost much less than the ones at the optometrist (mine were under $20), and are much more unique. My doctor had no problem fitting the lenses in.
Either that or go crazy with the ones you have. Would your parents freak out if you painted the frames?
Gosh, you are very slim my dear! Gorgeous.
I just realized that your boots are almost identical to my new blue ones! Wardrobe inspiration! Yay!
woo! What an awesome look. Love it.
All I have to say is , wow ,I love it a billion times!!!
MJ — It’s the hat I broke out as part of my wardrobe taming! It’s totally hitting the spot, I’m so glad I’ve rediscovered it!
sophie — Thank you, cute!
Kelly — I like your images, they’re very cool! & yes, please do introduce yourself!! I am nice, I promise ;>
Tasj — Not that often, once a month maybe? Maybe every month & a half. I bleach my hair so the colour REALLY stays, & I use Special Effects (an American brand) which is insanely bright. It also stains everything, including pillowcases, showers, pearls, collars… but worth it, in my opinion!
Iswari — I am dying for Topshop & H&M & Zara to come to Australia! It seems entirely remiss that we don’t have them. Australians love to shop! I am jealous of your Topshop proximity!
Miri — Merci beaucoup darling!
sarah bee — You are very sweet! I just get bored with wearing the same thing all the time, so I like to play around & see what I come up! (It takes time on a bad day…)
etoware sora — Ooh, I like her stuff! Very cute.
Nell — Thanks dolly! I don’t usually do the high-waisted thing but I think it’s because most of my skirts are the wrong length to pull it off properly!
Nadine — Yeah, it’s pretty good huh… It makes me feel British!
nico — Awww no, that’s terrible! I hate being remorseful about not buying things, worst feeling ever. I bought it in November, I didn’t even try it on, I just knew I wanted it. Let this be a lesson to you, young lady ;D
Rachel — See my comment to Tasj ;> Once a month or every month & a half, depending on how often I wash my hair!
Annabel — My guess is that your glasses probably don’t make you geeky, you just FEEL like they do. I felt the same way in my old glasses. In fact, even in my new glasses I feel like that sometimes; I just can’t shake the geek – glasses connection. Getting cool frames might make you feel better, but if you ask people what they think of your look, they will probably say you look awesome & hot. There are a lot of people for whom a pair of glasses enhances the outfit about 1,000,000 times, so don’t sweat it too much!
Rachel — I hope so! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you :>
Ammu — Thanks sweetpea! & your suggestions are great.
Katrina — Awwww psshawwww!
Morgan Marcani — Hey, cool! Mine have had a lot of mileage, I bought them just before I left NZ for good so they’ve travelled the world with me!
Victoria — The belt makes me feel like a present ;D I love it!
x Sarah x — Ahhh, it’s all an optical illusion!
Shay — Thanks dolly!
Mikayla — I do too, I felt really good in this outfit!
