Daily Outfit -- 3rd July 2007

[ 4 July 2007 ]

Today I am channelling Diana Vreeland/Little Edie — hence the serious face! Well, Diana/Edie if they were alive today… a futuristic reincarnation, maybe.

It’s a beautiful day, in fact I’ve had the balcony door open all morning, so yes, I am quite warm, thank you! (I know you cuties worry about these things!)

Daily outfit
Little Edie LIVES!

Daily outfit

<3 Pink scarf
<3 House of Flying Daggers dress by World
<3 Cardigan by Ricochet (only buttoned at the top)
<3 Manolo Blahnik black heels (swoon)
<3 Three clear lucite bangles, new obsession
<3 Tarina Tarantino skull ring

Perhaps I am a little dressed up to check the PO Box?

Daily outfit

P.S. I do not advocate smoking — it is ageing & smelly! But I’m playing a character, & Diana was very fond of Lucky Strikes. So, uh, put that in your pipe & smoke it! Wink wink.


Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala <3

  1. Awww, too cute! I especially love the scarf…I wish I could pull that off, but my hair is too long and it looks ridiculous, hehehe. Oh well, I’m getting it all chopped off soon anyway.

    But I love the outfit! _

  2. Just hang your hair out the back! I would if I had longer tresses ;>

    & thank you! I feel so awesome in this outfit, I can’t even begin to tell you, haha.

  3. Awwwww, I was gunna ask about the shoes. No wonder they’re so beautiful. I’ll have to go suck up to my Mum, she owns 2 pairs! (Isn’t my Dad romantic? Buy a girl what she really WANTs I always say…)

    <3 Bex · Jul 4, 08:06 AM · #

  4. Oh my gosh: the cardi-buttoning, the red, the scarf, the eye-makeup (not entirely sure if you’re wearing any but anyway it looks great!) the bangles . . you are WORKING IT, BABY! My fave is the hand-to-brow shot.

  5. How far can you walk in those shoes? (those supercute shoes, I might add)

    I only ask because I’m trying to break in a pair of heels I plan on wearing to my friend’s wedding next week. (It’s not going so well.)

  6. Bex — Shoes are a fabulous gift, my boyfriend bought me these ones in fact! (I’m going to pay him back, though!) They’re great shoes, they are an instant mood elevator… it is impossible to feel bad in them.

    Nadine — Thank you sweetie! Eye makeup is a bit of MAC “Nocturnelle” eyeshadow, it’s a beautiful dusky pink which I LOOOVE & then a line of MAC black Fluidline along the lashes. I actually forgot mascara today, oops!

    jeni — A fair way! I’ve been wearing them around the house. I think the best way to do it is wear them as much as possible while you’re at home. Go for short walks outside but not far. I haven’t walked for longer than ten minutes in these yet. I need to get protective thingies put on the soles before I do! But if you keep wearing them around the house, it’ll help you out a lot.

  7. you look beautiful….:) awesome outfit and pretty ayeshadow

    <3 vanessa · Jul 4, 08:22 AM · #

  8. I always stretch out my party heels while I’m folding up the washing. Glamour plus!

    <3 Nadine · Jul 4, 08:35 AM · #

  9. I love the Manolos. :-D You are stunning as always.

    <3 amanda lee · Jul 4, 09:02 AM · #

  10. Merci beaucoup! I haven’t even left the house yet, haha, my outfit is going to waste! Though I think my boyfriend likes it…

    <3 Gala · Jul 4, 10:03 AM · #

  11. Oh what lovely shoes (and legs grin).

    And what are protective things for the soles? I have never heard of such things . . .

    <3 Sherry · Jul 4, 12:45 PM · #

  12. Just rubber things attached to the bottom of the shoe, at the front. They do it at shoe repair places, it’s to stop the sole getting worn down. Makes your shoes last longer!

  13. You are so adorable. This outfit is in the top 10 of my favorite “Daily Outfit” entries. I luv it.

    <3 Noir Muse · Jul 4, 02:34 PM · #

  14. Thanks very much! :D I got your wee package the other day, it rocked my world! You will be receiving something from me shortly~! xoxo

    <3 Gala · Jul 4, 02:37 PM · #

  15. Remember little Edie said “I don’t like skirts on a woman”

    <3 Davide · Jul 4, 04:30 PM · #

  16. But she still wore ‘em!

    “Mother wanted me to come out in a kimono so we had quite a fight…”

    <3 Gala · Jul 4, 04:33 PM · #

  17. The combination of the cardigan and the dress make such a beautiful neckline! The keyhole effect is very alluring….

    <3 Nadia · Jul 4, 04:59 PM · #

  18. ALLURING eh? Have I managed to seduce you via jpg yet? ;>

    <3 Gala · Jul 4, 05:01 PM · #

  19. Love the outfit and headscarf very colourful. On another note, just wanted to say your flat/apartment looks amazing… especially with the view.

    <3 LauraJ · Jul 4, 11:22 PM · #

  20. Wow,
    I really love the headscarf!
    I wish I could pull off an outfit like this.
    The shoes are especially adorable.
    Bah, I want a cigarette.

    <3 Sydney · Jul 5, 02:47 AM · #

  21. Thank you, sweet girls! & Sydney, you do not! Ssshhhhh. Bad for you!

    <3 Gala · Jul 5, 03:00 AM · #

  22. You look like a very s-t-a-u-n-c-h woman in that outfit. And very pretty, too!

    I think the best and funniest parts about Little Edie is that half the time, she didn’t even bother with real headscarves and just kind of tied up a shirt over her head, ponytail-style.

    I’m glad you don’t smoke. Your skin is too lovely. And it’s a waste of money. With your taste in shoes, you need all the savings you can get!!

    Lovely pictures.
    Julie

  23. Thanks Miss Julie! I love the way Little Edie wears a towel as a headscarf at one point, so awesome. I always wonder whether she actually had any hair.

    <3 Gala · Jul 5, 02:03 PM · #

  24. oh my! i can help but wonder where you got that lovely bedspread/quilt. i’m searching for something like it for my new apartment. you should write an article on decorating small apartments on a college budget! haha!

  25. Judy — It’s from a bedding shop in Australia ;D
