Daily Outfit -- 9th April 2008
[ 9 April 2008 ]

Yay! I’m debuting my new dress from Ricochet. I LOVE it so much! When I spin it poofs out in a very charming fashion. All the more reason to spin!

Black beret from Sportsgirl (I pinned a flower to it)
Dyrberg/Kern necklace
Dress by Ricochet
Manolo Blahnik high heels
White poodle bag from Love On A Leash (& I have a Dachshund on the way!)
I actually bought a few things from Ricochet (among other places), so no doubt you’ll get to see them over the next few days! It’s quite hilarious really, it was cold here, & then we went to Wellington & it was cold there too, so I did my winter shopping & now we’re back in Melbourne again & it’s HOT! I envisioned myself wearing this dress with something under or over it, but noooo… !

Can can can you do the can-can?
What are you wearing today?
Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala ![]()

The dress is completely gorgeous, and I may need the dachshund bag.
You look amazing!
here in Finland we have crazy weather too, it´s snowing one day and it´s freakin hot the next!
I have a day-off today so I´m in my apartment chilling in my favorite pink shirt with a picture of a boombox on it, and my super cute tiny neon multicoloured panties that show off my booty while I´m dancing and singing along to Harry Belafonte…Daaaaaaayyyy-Ooooh! :)
Have a groovy day everyone!
a fantastic dress – the beret is just la cerise sur le petit gâteau.
and love the shoes
Eeeee. May need to go to Ricochet on the way home. That dress is gorgeous! It looks fantastic on you (esp showing your tats).
I loooove the third pic! the one with your hand on your mouth? it’s too sweet!
Love your hat too !
dress is so awesome, i love the leopard print.
i’m an air hostess today…took a few pictures for heavyanchor.blogspot.com
I love dresses that spin well :)
Oooh nice!! Love that tat-tastic third one – v. beautiful.
I’m wearing quite a lot of dirt, leaves and twigs – just been gardening. Gym pants, grey singlet, gorgeous Euinton crop cardi, pink earrings. I haven’t been gardening all day, so I am rocking a hybrid look. (Had a skirt on before.)
Kate — I’ll post pictures when it arrives!
Terhi — Haha, awesome mental picture!
M-P — You should! It’s so comfortable & cool. The straps are convertible, you can make them cross over at the back or front but I’m just wearing them straight.
Emma — Ah, so cute! Love the pinafore & scarf combo!
bree — Me too. Sometimes good poofing is a necessary piece of criteria when I go shopping!
That dress is cute…I’m SO jealous!
It was raining when I walked up to the post office today, so I was wearing my pink and green flower-patterned gumboots, pale skinny jeans, a white hoodie with “Shakespeare Hates Your Emo Poems” written across the front, and Ray Ban Wayfarers. I was also carrying a green handbag and a clear umbrella with a pink handle, pink edge, and pink Hello Kitty face on it!
Gorgeous! You look so vibrant and precious! Love your daily outfits, keep ‘em comin!
I’m wearing:
+ Black v neck dress from Portmans
+ Grey tee underneath dress, that says “Nobody puts Baby in a corner” – in shiny pink writing, Hee! Dirty Dancing!
+ Electric blue shrug with anchor buttons
+ Black stirrup stockings
+ Super high Mary Kate heels which make me taller than some people, wow!!!! very strange as im 5’3 without them!
+ Leopard print bow clip on annoying fringe which is now a side fringe. GRr.
+ Hot pink eye liner to match writing on tee!
Yay!!
-x.m
Jessabelle — Haha, your hoodie sounds AWESOME!
Melly — Mary Kate heels? I’m intrigued!
OMG! So freakin’ hot gala… I love Ricochet. Next trip home I am making sure I have LOTS of money to spend on clothes! Do you like Ziggurat? most of my favourite pieces are from there :)
x hope everyone’s having a great week
I had a wardrobe crisis today, so I’m still in my pajama’s and plan to stay that way until my wardrobe behaves
You look absolutely adorable, fit, and healthy!
Today I wore a fitted black hoodie with wide-leg “chinos” and blue flip flops—for hanging out around the house and doing laundry. ;P
You look so adorable Gala! And I like your hat. :)
Oh baby!!! You look great!
Wow- just before I saw this I was trying on my new Ricochet purchases. Shiny leopard print singlet dress and skinny black jeans! I’m so going back for the argyle stockings and folded mini-skirt!
Aw, I love it. I had a dress like that only it was red. Le sigh. My boobs won’t fit in them anymore. BTW, I love the stuffed doggie!
Natasja — I’d never bought anything from Ziggurat before this trip. The World t-shirt I was wearing in my last outfit photo is what I picked up :>
Hey Gala I know this is totally off the current subject (u do look fab by the way)...but i have just recently got into EFT, through you and your website!!!! I just want to thank you I feel amazing and I love what your doin…..cheers
scrumptulescent!
gala i must tell you, you have one helluva passion for delish fashion!
i dun care if it is cold or warm there cause you are
si-zuh-len!
You look scrumptious (or, SCRUMPTULESCENT!! what an awesome word!), as ever! Today I had a full day in le studio, painting messily on the floor. I wore a black 60s bell sleeve trapeze dress, a black waistcoat, burgundy crochet stockings I thrifted last week, black 70’s slouch boots, and a scarf knotted at my neck. I dressed according to, “hmm, what will I not be upset about if I get paint on it?”
Lo and behold, pthalo blue made its way onto my dress :( Oh well.
Way nice dress and looks so good with your knitted beret and hair colour too!
I am loving the love on a leash site and might buy one for myself _
Need some help if you can Gala…...a friend of mine is living in NZ at the moment and needs to find a dress for a wedding…....she is a bit of a bigger size,around a UK 16 and so does not feel too comfortable wearing itty bitty dress…she is not too savvy on where to shop either so i was wondering if you knew any cool shops in NZ i could recommend she visits?
OH MY GOD, you’re getting a DACHSHUND?! Congratulations!
Your and Simon’s first baby! (Sorry if that was weird.)
And I love that dress. You’re one of those girls who can totally pull off that structured-waist thing. I have a huge rack, so everything I own is empire waist!
And you look WONDERFUL wit your shoulders down and back.
xoxoxoxoxoxox for days!
I love the hat, flower and shoes teamed together; they are so glamorous together :D
is this your new camera?
i am so interested to know, because these photos are totally amazing and fresh.

Mis Elle — Aw, I’m not getting a REAL dachshund! (Unfortunately.) Just a dachshund purse, like the poodle one in the picture ;> A dog will have to wait until I am living in the States, I think!
Chelsea — Nope, it’s my digital SLR that I always use. Thank you, though!
Joleeeeeeeeeeeen — I honestly don’t know much about shopping for bigger sizes, regardless of country, but if you check out my NZ style article you’ll find my favourite shops! galadarling.com/article/new
wow that outfit..awesome! just wondering where is that pool? it makes me want to jump in clothes and all
Oh, that’s so sweet. With the flower on your beret, and the sheer feminine-ness of your dress, you could pass for Carrie Bradshaw with a great dye job!
:3
P.S. Okay… I’m blonde and sometimes unobservant… but did you say you’ll be living in the States? SACRE BLEU! (le shock!) Zat would be zo cool, cherie!
I’m wearing my new tattoo! I got it just today and it has my favourite quote by Alexander Pope that reads “A world forgetting by a world forgot”
Other than that I had a very boring day today. Just my black cashmere sweater paired with a little black skirt,purple tights and mary-janes, I just didnt feeeeel like it. However I did rather back comb quite madly today so I had massive purple hair!
You look quite adorable in your outfit! It’s still cold here in North Carolina. What is up with this weather?
Funnily, I have both a real poodle AND dachshund so I will just tuck them under my arm instead of a purse version. Except they aren’t very good about holding onto my stuff!
Luv
Poochie
Hey Gala, Your outfit looks great … I’m trying to hide the page from my teenagers (usually the other way around) as I know they will want to run out and get tatoos like yours if they see them !! Oops 15 year old daughter over shoulder – she thinks you look “COOL”
The Love on a leash poodle bag looks fab on you – I can’t wait to see photos of your Dachshund one when you get it !
What kind of music do you or your fans like? You may be interested in taking a look at an up-and-comming young band
CruxVera www.myspace.com/cruxvera (Ok maybe the lead singer is my son) anyway they are kind of Metal/Screemo….and doing quite well on the local Sydney scene, I would love you to have a look and let me know what you think.
Love Donna x
We did an interesting activity in my English class yesterday where we drew a little stick figure of ourselves and then analyzed how popular culture would stereotypically view us buy what we were wearing.
I was wearing a shirt that I had tye-dyed myself, straight leg jeans, my old torn up checkerboard vans and a pair of thrift store sunglasses. From these items the class assumed that I was a punk/hippie/uber-liberal who didn’t own a TV, earned $20K per year, was not religious, went to a community college and earned an AA in pottery.
I thought this was so interesting because this picture of me is way off the mark! Regardless of truth, clothes can speak quite loudly.
You’re outfit screams rockin’ chic girl who has an odd bag collection ;)
Great outfit, these last 2 entries are among my favorites. This outfit makes you look stunning.
Gala you are so ADORABLE! These pictures really brightened up my day. You look so beautiful.
Love the outfit! And the bag is great – so different! :)
Today I’m wearing my ebay purchases…hehe. Skinnies and a tee. Nothing too exciting, just comfy. I’ll dress up for work tomorrow. :p
I’ll be wearing a long sleeved black t-shirt, dark skinny jeans (which always seem baggy on me), black and white high top converse shoes and my peacock feather earrings.
Also, that dress is adorable!
You are the only woman I know who can carry a doggy purse and still look good!
What a fantastic dress :)
I’m wearing a rather ridiculous outfit: green “Sprite” tee, denim shorts, purple suspenders, purple leggings, little blue heels, & purple geeky glasses. Ahh, bliss.
oh my, I will be using “scrumptulescent” forever now.
I am wearing dark dark purple diamond patterned tights, a purple bubble-skirt dress, a pink t-shirt-y top underneath, a lilac jumper and a thick black cardigan on top of that. It is quite cold. Oh and some lilac beads from the “Pretty Pretty Princess” game I had as a kid.
Lovely! You have the most amazing legs, Gala! So jealous XD x
that dress is just too adorable!!! loves it, and u look tres fab!
You look stunning as usual! Gala, I swear, you’re going to make me head straight to the parlor for tattoo sleeves! Yours are so gorgeous. I’ve been thinking about it for some time now but can’t come up with a meaningful design. Anyway, you look gorgeous dah-ling!
Aw, you look absolutely amazing! That dress is great.
Lady Julianne, your outfit seems really cute ^^
Today, I’m wearing a burgundy knee-length dress with puffed sleeves in a t-shirty material, over a black silk vintage slip and burgundy crocheted tights.
I love the dress. It looks great on you, and the furry puppy poodle purse is adorable.
Today I am wearing a blue KANSAS Jayhawks NCAA National Champions tee-shirt because we just WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
The game was tied with a last-minute 3 point shot by the Jayhawks and we pulled ahead to win the game in overtime.
I’ve been having the best week ever and my school has the best basketball team.
i
i think my computer hates me since it put the first letter of my comment and nothing else.
anyway.
i love zee dress!
i’m wearing shorts.
because it’s bloody hot out
but i like it =]
i’m wearing my boyfriend’s shirt & that’s it. i just woke up.
that bag is the cutest thing ever. i’d carry my own dog around but he’s far too heavy. me staggering along the street with an angry dog in my arms= not glamorous.
what am i wearing today? school uniform. we wear kilts :D
Ahh I’ve been wanting to wear a shirt over a dress recently, too, what a coincidence! Just this morning I rolled out of bed and put on a sky-blue Threadless t-shirt (called ‘I Hate Packing’ – a luggage case full of 3-D Tetris blocks that are fashioned into CLOTHES!) over my pale coral nightdress. Haha, being a busy student has made me crafty in the ways of “Not Dressing In The Morning!”
wearing skinny jeans, a lite blue sweater over a black tank top, a rhinestone padlock choker necklace and matching fake diamond 2g plugs in my ears. oh, and a black headband with white skulls in my hair.
and snow boots, because we got hit AGAIN last night. bah. i wouldn’t wear them if i didn’t have to walk :)
i think tomorrow is laundry day! haha…
Hey Gala!
You look GORGEOUS and that dress is divine :D
Today I wore a new pair of shorts that I adore, they are white and grey striped with different lovely buttons on the pockets and waist. I wore them with some supersoft sheer tights which I only just bought today and then I got a ladder in them >_<
I also wore a black silk vest with lace detail & a black v-neck jumper over that to keep warm.
Wow, that dress is adorable! Today, I’m wearing my favorite black pants and a black t-shirt, which is decidedly boring, but in honor of Gerard Way’s birthday, I wore my black and white military jacket over it! Apart from clothing, as narcissistic as it may sound, I’m looking SMOKING HOT today. I found my magical eyeliner, and I hardly ever wear any, so I put some on this morning— and wow! Wearing it every day from now on. Despite some sickness issues, I’m feeling hot and confident recently!
i loove loove loooove your shoes!
Love the earrings!!
your dress is so cute. i’m wearing my plaid shirt that makes me feel like a lumberjack and skinny jeans
Squee! I just got my very first iCiNG Treat!!! I can seriously fit my entire life in this bag – fab!
Jenna — YAY!!!!!!!! God that is so exciting! Thank you for letting me know!

today i wore:
my loose curls of hair, au naturale with light natural colored makeup
medium grey leggings, jean-miniskirt, grey-toned tank with dark blue polo overtop….it was a bit cool out so i wore a vintage looking, red and slightly-shrunken sweatshirt with my dc khaki-kicks
kinda casual….but it was a lazy-school day
Today I wore:
Ripped skinny jeans
Black converse Chuck Taylors
Engineering Polo Shirt
White Zara Tank top
