Daily Outfit -- 3rd March 2008
[ 3 March 2008 ]

What I wore to the Fashion Incubator show…
Pink sparkle knit hat
Turquoise & gold vintage dress
Poodle bag (!!!) from Love On A Leash
Rings by Tarina Tarantino
Pink high heels from Patricia Field

I call this look “little girl lost”. In other news, I have real problems finding shoes to go with this dress. I don’t own anything gold! What would you match it with?
Super-love & cupcakes,

great outfit gala!i love love love the poodle bag..it’s simply too cute!
I think the pink beauties look great! They don’t have to match, they just have to go… right? They totally go!
You are looking fabulous!
i love this look! and where did you find that knit beret? besides pink and gold, i think you should rock some vivid teal pumps. white would definitely work (and maybe a huge pearl necklace to match) but other than that….yellow? sorry not much help! you still look fab. :)
The pink of the shoes goes nicely with the hat and the pinky red part of your tattoo that is visible. It looks great! Your hair is looking gorgeous by the way :) xx
Ahhhh, you look cute!!
What cute pictures! I like the shoes actually. You can rock it.
I agree the Sushizume.
The pinkies look fantastic.
This outfit is tremer.
Cyber manga ‘it’ girl!
Oh, I adore this outfit! Amazing all around!
I’d definitely wear that dress with calf or knee high boots (I’d do black because it’s more my style, but white would be spiffy indeed), but maybe that’s just me…
white oxfords (those bronze toe ones from lanvin! i am currently selling my soul for them) or b&w spectators or shiny black men’s dress shoes (UO had a phat pair for chicks recently)or super-tall chucks or even just a pair of pumps that match your hair:)
or do like the original dress owner would have and have a satin pair dyed to match. love that:)
bubblegum pink works too!!
I’ve got a bit of a soft spot for Irregular Choice shoes, and I just love these boots, which, I think, would look really cute with your dress: tinyurl.com/yqxwjj
omg, I loove the way you look with that hat! And, god, that bag is just amazing :D :D
I agree though, that those shoes don’t fit that well with the dress (which is gorgeous). I would use some cream colored shoes? (white would be to shiny!)
I’m so glad that one of your weekly resolutions is to post more outfits! The dress you’re wearing is amazing!
Yay! Thank-you-much for posting outfits again! I’m a sucker for those sparkly brocade 60’s dresses that pop up every so often. I think straight up cherry red shoes would work with the color scheme. I loooove mint and red together. : )
It might be a little boring, but I think some nude pumps would look great with that dress!
amypalko’s suggestion is amazing! Those boots ARE your dress, and the ribbon would tie in with that hat, which is awesomely cute and should be worn more.
Otherwise I’d suggest matching your shoes with other accessories you’re wearing, rather than the dress.
I’d find some vintage gold ones on ebay which would be kind of that muted almost scratchy looking gold fabric.

You look so cute!!! n_n I really love this outfit and the dog purse is adorable!
You look adorable! But so classy at the same time. I especially love your locks down. You’re like an easter candy treat! I like the pop of color in the shoes you’re wearing, kind of matches your tattoos a bit.
What about your turquoise pumps in that same style? I forget exactly their color so they may clash, but that’s what came to mind. Otherwise some cute gold ballet flats (I bought mine at Target [not sure if they ship outside the USA] www.target.com/Xhilaration )
Everything looks adorable as is though.
LOVE that dress! Shoes are really nice, too. :)
If I lived near you, I’d loan you my gold heels. As it is (me here, you there), I think there’s plenty of room to play around. Pink looks good, as would aqua, teal, orange, or (my fave choice) red. Red would seriously pop!
That outfit is so cute! I would probably wear that dress with black shoes and black or white tights, as I do with everything. Orrr… light pink shoes to match the hat.
you look great, Gala! I think pink is not an obvious choice but works so well with your outfit! I love it :)
What’s great about the pink shoes is that they match the bit of your tattoo that peeks out from under the dress sleeve! I’m really glad you’ve resolved to show us more of your outfits…they are such a fun way to start the day and kick start my creative mind :)
just beautiful!
i reallly love this outfit! it’s lovely!
great look! Adorable!! Your pink pumps go well with the dress! Other colours that might look good with turquoise-gold: bold blue (like your hair), red, cream white.
I love that dress! I have to agree that the shoes look good with your tats. Or you could get some shoes that match your hair and then they would look good with anything! Some kind of shiny or metallic or pearly gold-ish colour would suit the dress – you know, a make-up type of colour. Or long brown boots, because black would kill that dress. Or red, purely because I’m a red shoes with everything person.
I have a similar kind of light-coloured dress that I never know how to accessorise with legwear in winter. It’s too pale for dark or bright tights – what it really is begging for is skin-toned pantyhose (is pantyhose the world’s most hideous word?) – but I think they are so naff that they require a truly cutting-edge persona to succeed . . .
this look is fantastic! i’m totally in love — and the poodle bag is amazing. i’d love to own one but i don’t think i could ever work it like you do, haha!
i think this is one of the best outfits you’ve ever worn.
personally i would wear black shoes with that dress because i wear black shoes with just about everything…but i think the pink looks fantastic on you. it goes well with your whole look. though i must admit i’m not terribly fond of the purse, mainly because i’m not very fond of poodles…
If you have shoes that are about the same shade purple as your hair, I think you could get away with wearing them.
I myself am not as brave as you are venturing outside color schemes, i’m too matchy-matchy… but considering the style of dress, I’d go with baby-blue go-go boots with gold-sparkly specked tights or some nice vintage gold lame’ shoes, maybe with some pastel blue knee-highs?
Going for that 60’s NOW look.
hope I was helpful.
Beautiful! I think this is one of your sweetest looks to date.
LOVE that dress. I know you’ve worn it before, but the long blue locks make it even better!!
Oh man that dress is cute!
Pick up some gold heels for sure.
Or get those irregular choice boots Amypalco mentioned.
They’re kinda matchymatchy, but I’m into that.
I like the pink, maybe a lighter shade would work better though? something bright and happy! otherwise I think some white flats would be cute… also, love the bag! it is possibly the greatest thing ever!
Oooo cute.
Looks liek a few people have already suggested it but I’d go with some shoes the same colour as your hair.
Either that or some big black boots (new rock type not fashionista type).
I’m just going to second a lot of already-mentioned things – Irregular Choice have a lot of shoes in that perfect aqua, so they’re an option. As is either getting a pair of satin shoes dyed or getting a pair of plain pumps covered with your choice of fabric. White and gold spectators would look good, as would some sort of insane knee-high gold gladiator shoe. Or shoes the exact shade of your hair. White would work because of the (gorgeous) lil poodle.
It’s such a beautiful dress whichever way you wear it, however :)
Your dress and purse are gorgeous. I think the pink looks fine, having shoes the same color as your hair would be pretty awesome too.
this is my favourite daily outfit, ever!!!!
This is just adorably cute and mad!
I’m with nino_feuille – this is my favourite daily outfit photo, ever! I am in LOVE with it Gala – it looks like something Carrie Bradshaw would wear! I love the contrast of your hair mixed with the colours of your beret and the colours in the dress – and I think the pink shoes just make the outfit even more special! You would have looked AMAZING!
lovely dress Gala :)
oh, this is definitly one of my favorites!! I have a purse like that, but mine’s a pug! My friend has a chiuahua purse too! I must say that that dress is ab-fab! As for shoes, I think that your platform mary janes could look gorg.
Turquoise, gold and pink is fun and classy! You know how to work it lady!
Love the hat…..looks great with your long blue hair.
That dress is EXCELLENT!
I think some white or cream patent mary janes…there are some great platform/skinny heeled ones on the Topshop site _
That dress is amazing. And you’re the only person I know who could rock the poodle bag.
i adore those shoes. i wouldn’t change a thing about this outfit.
perfect!
Aww, this is one of the cutest daily outfits that you’ve ever had! The outfit is perfect, I love the splash of pink from your shoes. :)
black stockings with off white heels
Ooh, I LOVE your outfit! Especially the hat!
I decided to start putting Weekly Resolutions on my LJ. Thanks for the idea. :)
I’m so excited for all the new daily outfits and articles. Yay!
they clash beautifully. one of your best outfits in my brain, gala! x
These pictures make me want to raid my closet and assemble new outfits. And buy a poodle purse.
(Years ago, I found an alligator bag. It was a purse made out of a plush alligator. It was tremendous. Why oh why didn’t I buy it? I’m getting sad just thinking about it.)
Wow Gala you look gorgeous!!!!
I love the poodle bag & dress. They are both super
cute~! I think the pink high heels look great with the
dress. They totally compliment each other.
Great job~! =] xxx
hi gala!
this is just me but i would definately be looking around for anything with a similar colouring to your hair (im crazy for top and toe matching atm)
either that or some cute flat black ankle boots with grey opake (omg i think thats spelt wrong) tights
hope your day is amazing :)
I am in love with that dress!
you look great!i think the pink shoes go really well with the greeen hue of the dress.
i would personally wear my hair up in a messy bun/chignon though!esp with your long neck it would look good!
this is my FAVE outfit of yours ever!!!!!
you look like one of fawns little drawings!!!! SERIOUSLY!!! let me kiss you.
also my eyes lit up when i saw that bag because i’ve wanted a toy puppy to carry around with me for the longest time now, but then i saw the pomeranian one and they ruined the little pom face i love so much :( :(
the hunt continues
poodle is incredibly gorgeous though, and i think im diamond dusting 4 u 2nite babe at training xx
your bag reminds me of an ad i saw in a Vouge way back in August, there was a bunch of women and one of them near the back had a purple-ish wiener dog purse, i gasped and fell in love with it but for the life of me i can’t remember what designer it was…
I love your hair down! I hadn’t even realized you had long hair. It looks great.
your dress reminds me alot of the dresses from the spring 2008 ready-to-wear balenciaga collection!
alot like this…
www.style.com/slideshows/fashi…
tre magnifique!
Gala… you’re pretty.
this is also one of my favourite of your outfits gala! tres magnifique!
whereabouts did you get your beret from? (i’ve been hunting around for one)
i love that dress. if you ever get tired of it send it my way!!
i have gold shoes, vintage my grandmothers wedding shoes, they are pure gold leafed snake skin. they are the coolest shoes in existence.
I love this outfit!!!! However, I do have turquoise shoes with bows on if you ever want to borrow! haha! I loved this dress the first time you wore it as ‘daily outfit’ when you were dressed as Elton John’s “mini me”. I even found a copy a little similar, but not as bright in gold, from Basque in Myer. Still waiting to find somewhere to wear it….
Everyone who suggested black — It doesn’t work! It’s wayyyy too heavy for the dress & drags it down like mad. Though the Irregular Choice suggestion is magnifique!
philip! — Ooooooh! Glee!!
Kayla — Aw, thank you.
anna — Hmm, I’m not exactly sure but I think I bought it from David Jones (a department store here in Australia). I know that’s not very helpful! A good sparkly knit hat is a hard thing to find!
wow! this is amazing
my favouite thing every,
and i’m totaly smitting with those hot dorothy heels : ) !
xx
I would do white, cream or a fantastic pale or punchy-peachy orange shoe…perhaps in the vein of last year’s double-strap Mary Janes from Miu Miu? I know it’s taking the little-girl thing to an extreme, but I kind of love that. xo MG
Gala,
I very sadly had to miss the Incubator show and stay home to look after my sick baby! How was it? Do you have any great stories or pics to post?
i really like the pink shoes with it. keeps it slightly edgy, while the hat makes it so absolutely cute!
Oh, you look darling! it’s always fun to wear contrasting heels with a lady like outfit…I do it all the time. I have a pair of leopard prints that I wear with absolutely anything. The more outrageous the better!
wow i love you’re hat, its just like the one i made myself last week. i have a feeling that i may turn into everyones personal beanie making slave this winter.
i guess this is the cutest outfit you’ve ever worn!
i love love love your outfit, it totally ROCKS
lots of hugs from germany :)
I absolutely adore the brocade-ish feel and colors in your dress! Very Marie Antoinette. =D
woah,you look super beautiful with your hair like that,the outfit is sooooo aborable,very vintage looking
This such a lovely outfit Gala, I really love the color and print of the dress, very summery and light! And honestly, I think it looks just great with the pink pumps as it is. It gives the outfit that little bit of ‘wow’!
Gala Darling … Thanks so much for modeling the Love on a leash Puppy Purse with your daily outfit !! You look sensational and the rest of the outfit really sets it off ! I’ve just read all of your comments and so many people out there are inspired by your adventurous style…Keep up the great work !!
Lots of Love

I’m thinking white flats or mary janes.
And that bag had me in fits; it’s adorable.
ooo! I love this outfit!
The pink shoes match great, maybe even bright orange ones? :)
xoxox
56 days!! (till the UK!)
I think the shoes are perfect to complete the ensemble :) they balance the dark blue of your hair and the pink of your bonnet, & match your nails :)
& the cute poodle!!! I used to have a dolphin-shaped fake fur backpack [well i still have it I just dont use it anymore] and people would constantly stop me on the steet to say it was cute :))
