Daily Outfit -- 25th May 2007

[ 26 May 2007, 15:38 ]

I was meant to go to a fashion parade last night but I got there late because… I was getting dressed! It doesn’t get any more fashion than that. Then I went to the opening of Ocean Blue, a club on the pier in Port Melbourne. The crowd was a bit university-students-with-money. My friend Allan asked me incredulously, “Don’t you like house music?!”. Squawk! How weird. Anyway, here is what I wore. I danced more during the photos than I did when I went out.

Massively teased hair, wrapped in a purple turban (I also stuck a turquoise feather in there)
Fur coat (faux), bought for approximately $40 NZ before Burning Man last year. This thing saved my life out there in the desert, it is sooo warm & I love the collar
Pearls tied in a knot
Dress from World, which I absolutely love but which gives me grief every time I wear it. I kind of liked it with the sash undone but I figured that if I bent over at all, it would drag on the ground. Not so pleasant in a club, really. So, before I left the house I tied the pink satin sash around my waist, but the satin is way too heavy & slips down — so I had to pin it together. Also this dress is one of those items that always ends up smelling sweaty, even if you only wear it for about five minutes. I hate that! & it’s handwash only so as you can imagine, I hardly ever wear it. Boo, because it’s gorgeous.
Purple lamé leggings from American Apparel. (Do you know that if you google “lamé leggings” my website is the second hit after American Apparel?)
Black legwarmers over the top, safety-pinned on so they wouldn’t slip off
Chinese-print wedges
Purple pacifier strung onto purple shoelaces around my wrist (I am totally channelling Claudia Kishi)!
