Daily Outfit: 21st October 2009
[ 22 October 2009 ]

Last night, I went to Seam Collective‘s Forte fashion show at the Metropolitan Pavilion. I took Chloe as my date & we had an excellent time. (Understatement!) Also, she took all these photos. She is so good. You should hire her!

Headband from Charlotte Russe
Faux fur (& faux leather!) coat from Bustown Modern on eBay
Gala Darling dress from ModCloth, hooray! It’s been so cold that this is the first time I’ve worn it, & I totally love it! I was a little concerned that maybe it would be too short, but it’s the perfect length on me (I am 5’7”). It’s still out of stock, but ModCloth are getting another shipment in about 3 weeks. If you sign up for notifications on their site, they’ll let you know when they get more in. It is the perfect holiday dress, for real!
Studded belt from Forever 21
Dash fishnet stockings, not sure on the brand, but I bought them at Farmers in New Zealand, ha!
Guess platform patent mary janes, which came from Solestruck
Assorted silver bracelets from Forever 21
Handbag from ModCloth (again with the faux leather)


Detail shots! (Nadine always asks for them… hee!) As you can see, I talk with my hands a LOT. (There are much worse habits!)

I am totally in love with my new coat. It is the perfect length, super-warm & it has nice deep pockets. I am going to wear this to the point of obscenity this winter. & these mary janes are top contenders for favourite shoes ever.

Chloe is adorable. I am trying to devour her in this picture. As you can see, in my absence, we traded hair!

Goodie bags are always interesting. Here I model the latest in… umbrellas!

It’s so good to be back in New York!
Thanks to Seam Collective & Polina for having us!
Love letters & feather headdresses,

Hoover DAM you are cute! (Thank you for the detail shots, my bunny.)
Gala I’m not sure if it’s your new hair color or your makeup or your top secret vitamin regimen but you are GLOWING. And your outfit? Tres chic!
Thanks laaaaaadies!
Nadine — You are welcome, as always, my beautiful!
Winona — Secretly? It’s ‘cause I’M IN LOVE LIKE MAD. !!!
YOU LOOK SO GOOD GIRL!!!! Love the hair it is bangin!
Oooeeee you look like a delicious baby polar bear!
I need me a (faux) fur coat and a friend who has rad picture taking skills and a bad-ass camera. I just love Chloe’s photos.
You look a bit different when someone else does the picture taking, very relaxed. Although that could be the mad love too!
I love your eye make-up, what do you use for the inner eye glow!? x
awwww, you look so little and scared on the red carpet!!
Aw you look fabulous! So chic.
Ok, that is it! You have convinced me to go blonde! And you do have that “IN LOVE” glow. Your hair amplifies it!
love love love love love it. Chloe is an excellent personal paparazzi! You look gorgeous as always, with the new hair and that dazzling coat.
Gala, I have those F21 bracelets too, i love how jingly they are _
You look fantastic!!!
I second the glowing skin & beautiful hair! You look gorrrgeous. And that faux fur coat looks surprisingly classy.
I was so freaked when I saw this, and then delighted to learn that the fur was fake! Phewww
gala, looking amazing!!
I love your hair! You look amazing. :)
You look very old hollywood glamorous with the coat & headband. Beautiful!!
gala i’m really glad you’re going for the faux fur
I absolutely love your new hair. It suits you well.
You are fantabulous!
Do you plan on sharing your Halloween plans on the blog? :-)
Treacle — Yes, if I make any! I don’t know what I’m dressing as yet, & I don’t know what I’m doing… Though my friends Angel & Kaia just invited me to New Orleans & I REALLY REALLY REALLY WANT TO GO, I’ve never been! But it’s next weekend, which is pretty soon. So, we’ll see…
Someones looking very “I-totally-deserve-to-be-in-the-front-row”, and you totally do. I want a huge fur coat to wrap myself up in (and cold enough weather to wear it!).
This looks like so much of a blast! And… you look positively posh!
Your platinum hair, giant coat, and tights are very Edie Sedgwick. I love this outfit! I’m excited that you are gonna be dressing for fall again, as you seem to have been in perpetual summer. I am trying to get inspired and start collecting fall pieces to layer.
And those Guess borda shoes are amazing. I totally ripped yer style and bought ‘em as soon as you posted that picture of them, and I am so happy with how comfortable they are while being so tall! I swear they’re more comfortable than most of my sneakers. I even do hoop performances in them. They’re second only to my Chloe ’06 black/wood tie wedges which give me serious stomping power.
Oh god I want those mary janes!
You look so radiant in that last photo Gala, it is my absolute favourite! Mwah!
PS. Gala if your glowyness is a result of all the potions & vitamins you were talking about a while ago, I can tell you what I am stocking my shopping bag full of the minute I get on holidays!
OH MY GOODNESS THAT COAT IS TO DIE FOR.
i’m getting so into faux fur at the moment, london is freeeezing and it’s practical and goes with everything i own. you’re looking gorgeous as always, it took a while to get used to but i love your hair! xx
I love this outfit, you look AMAZING! You are absolutely glowing & look fab!
your hair looks so great blonde !!
I love your hair, and Chloe is amazing!!!
love,
angel
You look beyond fantastic!!!
I wish I had the skin tone to pull off bleached hair. You rock the look!
you look incredible. your hair is fantastic!!!!!
I have to ask because your skin always looks fantastic and your eyes are always glowy, what moisturizer do you use on your face and what is the shimmery white eyeshadow you use on the insides of your eyes. It’s just gorgeous on you!
Gala, I need your help you see i don’t know what i want to be when im older and everone else in my class does…... can you help me pleas?
I love real fur, fake looks just too tacky to me:I
ps. I have two mink coats, theyre super warm :)
