What Are You Wearing?

[ 23 January 2007 ]

No, not in the heavy-breathing-down-the-phone sense! What do you have on — clothing, perfume, shoes, make-up? How do you feel in your get-up? Sexy? Dowdy? If a celebrity could wear your outfit, who would? Are you too warm, too cold, just right? What parts of it work & what is annoying you about it?


Super-love & cupcakes,
Gala <3

  1. I’ll start. I’m wearing a black froofy dress by Laurie Foon with my yellow “The Witches” t-shirt over the top. I just applied fake tan so my skin smells funny. Make-up: China Girl foundation by Napoleon Perdis & NP mascara. Perfume: Lolita Lempicka Midnight. If a celebrity could wear my outfit… I think maybe Maggie Gyllenhaal having a seizure.

  2. I have stayed home all day watching all of season six of sex & the city. Just awhile ago (after the last episode) I dressed to the nines to attend…a drulling walk to the local four square to get a trumpet (ice-cream, celebrating life). I wore my big pimpin’ fur coat, and nike shorts (not visible) and white leather heels. I felt very glamourous, but not so much when I got home, very sweaty..fucking humidity. I think I would be Madonna aged 10.

  3. I LOVE IT! My big pimpin’ fur coat is hanging in my bedroom just across from me, I keep eyeing it up. I wish it was cold! I’m planning on wearing it with red lipstick, my Compton cap, a short skirt & spike heels…
    P.S. Yay for SATC... I watch at least one episode per day.

  4. I am wearing black Grab straight-leg jeans, blue stripey socks, black Vans Prison Edition trainers (velcro!!), and a black t-shirt with puff sleeves, gathered-ish neck and kind of a grey flocked wallpaper pattern haphazardly screen-printed on the front over the gather. I feel a little bit scruffy in it. Also too much black. I smell like Matakana Lime and Olive Oil moisturiser.

  5. I’m wearing a comfy sweat pants and sweater top… with a throw… not cold… just want to feel warm… lol…

    Getting close for bed… that’s way…

    Gonna think about what to wear tomorrow…

  6. I’m wearing a purple & cream flowers on black fabric vintage halter dress (converted newly today!), a creme lace vintage slip underneath, a black silk sweater & black heels that have two buckles at the tip. I’ve got my hair in a faux french twist with a bunch of bobby pins.

    I am wearing lolita lempicka – i’ve had the same bottle since i was 18! i had a boyfriend buy me the large bottle & its lasted forever. I also smell like cigarettes (the last time i wore this cardigan i was around smokers).

    I’m wearing a slight bit of jane brown eyeshadow under my eye & clinique beach bronze on my eyelid, as well as covergirl waterproof mascara (shit! i hope to get some nicer makeup when i have money), as well as some tinted burt’s bees lip gloss.

    as far as i feel? this is a great, very sexy outfit (heels are SO amazing. i’ve taken to wearing them much more often). The only downside is i am slightly cold & my heels were sinking into the wet grass.

    & i think i’m probably dressed like Maggie Gyllenhaal as well – she’s the only celebrity i’ve seen that likes to do the vintage stylin’ look.

  7. Your outfit sounds dreamy ms Mary Bee! I love wearing a slip with a soft sweater in cashmere or some other material… so tactile. Rawrrr!

  8. haha, i read your blog a LOT so i don’t know why i didn’t comment~

    i am not at my best~! because i’m sick, i am only wearing an old black hoodie and some ripped up and painted on jeans, with a vintage tee. it’s awful.
    usually, i would wear something like yesterdays…
    striped tights, black boots, black short shorts, long white wool hoodie, black singlet, black bangles, and black bandana.
    i guess i can’t really think of a celebrity who’d be wearing my clothes… hmmm.

    and as for perfume i’m wearing corpse bride perfume (cheap but it really smells lovely), and my makeup is always along the lines ov…

    ignore the fact i’d just woken up~

  9. Hyuju, your outfit sounds amazing! I would love to see a picture sometime. & please enlighten me: Corpse Bride perfume?! That exists?!

    <3 Gala · Jan 23, 11:25 PM · #
  10. yes! they used to sell it at hot topic, and it was only about 16USD. i don’t think it’s still there… but it smells lovely, kind of like grape soda. & it’s purple, too!

    <3 hyuju · Jan 24, 08:08 AM · #
  11. ok. i’m at work, so it’s a bit toned down: black pants (made of annoying material), black patent leather heels, white boob tube with little black skulls all over it, with a black cotton cropped jacket over top (to hide the fact that it’s a boob tube). jewellery: big 80’s bangles in fuschia & lime green, turqouise glass bead ring, black acrylic stag necklace on a silver chain. makeup: black eyeliner, mascara, light pink eyeshadow & nailpolish. perfume: givenchy lovely prism (i adore it; it makes me feel faerie-like!).
    i really like this outfit, apart from the pants – i love wearing bright accessories. i smell like egg snog lip balm from lush (SO GOOD).

  12. Hyuju — That’s so cute! I bet you don’t meet a lot of other people wearing it, either… I love perfume that smells like food. My favourites are Demeter’s Birthday Cake & Demeter’s Champagne Brut. If you wear them together it smells like the birthday party you wish you could have!

    <3 Gala · Jan 24, 09:11 AM · #
  13. Annaloren — Yr outfit sounds awesome & you sound comfortable in it. With the exception of the pants! Seriously, if they are driving you crazy, you should give them away or sell them. I like your sneaky boob-tube hiding… I have a couple of boob tubes I like very much but I’m not much in the boobs department, so I need to buy a strapless bra to avoid, um, embarrassment! Anyway I wish you had photos!

  14. Superfine grey skinny jeans
    Dark grey ‘amplified votan’ distressed tshirt
    Handmade Italian leather mules in tan colour
    Gucci glasses
    Smile

  15. Ahh Robin you’re so cute! “What are you wearing?”
    “High heels… & a smile.”

    <3 Gala · Jan 24, 09:21 AM · #
  16. =oD Thank you!!!

    Now high heels and a smile…that a rather nice image!!! God, women in heels and a good one piece swimsuit drives me wild!!! There was an awesome Vogue UK issue a while back full of pics and it almost nearly killed me!!! I

    <3 Robin Hosking · Jan 24, 09:24 AM · #
  17. i like bonds strapless bras ~ very cheap, & very comfortable for those of us who are lacking in the boobs department!
    could you recommend where in auckland i can buy some pants that will fit me??! ich bin tall (174 cm-ish) but shaped like a beanpole & hardly anyone makes size 6s that are loooong enough for my legs!
    i will send you some photos one day soon! :]

    <3 annaloren · Jan 24, 09:56 AM · #
  18. Annaloren — I love Bonds, they’re great. Pants in Auckland? Hmmm. I like World & Ricochet, though Ricochet’s sizing is a bit whack & their 6 may be too big for you. Cue is okay. Also, my friend Ana Steele (plug plug) has a store, PattisonSteele in Grey Lynn, & her pants are A.M.A.Z.I.N.G… you should check it out. 571 Great North Road!

    <3 Gala · Jan 24, 10:31 AM · #
  19. black trousers with wide thin white pinstripe — cut nicely but have very unfashionable frayed-edged-pockets-on-the-outside. i want to unpick them and put normal pockets in. wearing with a brightly coloured (on a black background) floral patterned sleeveless wrap-around top. and my cherished apple medal what i got for christmas — diamante red and green on a red ribbon, from alannah hill, who i LOVE.

    also with a black cardigan that i wear every day, and makes me slightly too hot but without it i’m slightly too cold. i wish it was a red or pink linen knit or something. and blue flat sandals, that i wish were red flat shoes.

    i need some new clothes! no perfume as am currently lunchtime shopping for a new special wedding perfume. amarige mariage the hot favourite so far!

    <3 annabel · Jan 24, 11:34 AM · #
  20. Black dress pants
    Blue and white horizontal stripe knit t-shirt
    3/4 length purple cardigan
    Black chucks (unflattering I know… I need get some training heels. These [http://images.trademe.co.nz/photoserver/21/34266321_full.jpg] were a bit ambitious)

    I thought it looked good when I got dressed but now I’m not so sure. I’m attempting to get away from all black but now I think my top half is too colourful.

    The pants are too big and the cardigan has sort of shrunk upwards and stretched outwards. I should throw it out but it’s such a nice colour.

    sigh

    <3 Anna Rose · Jan 24, 12:37 PM · #
  21. Anna — Those are the exact shoes I wore yesterday! They’re not very comfortable, but they do look good. Try wearing them somewhere where you’ll be sitting & not walking much — like to dinner or something. Re your outfit today, maybe if you had some other kind of purple accessory you’d feel more matched-up. I’m wearing purple today too. Even if you had purple beads or eyeshadow or a belt, you’d probably feel better about it.

    <3 Gala · Jan 24, 12:45 PM · #
  22. Black 3/4 pants
    Clear red grecian style spaghetti strap top, with wrap around ties. V. V. Cleavagey.
    Cropped cotton 50’s-style cardigan in teal (to dilute the cleavage).
    Black chucks.

    No celebrity would wear my outfit, as I am dressed like a vagrant :P I like the way the red and teal look together, but I need to learn to accessorise to tie the whole lot together. No make-up today, as I dressed in Auckland where it was hot and humid, and I really didn’t need to feel any sweatier. At least I wore perfume – Christian Dior Addict fraiche.

    <3 Ritalin · Jan 24, 11:10 PM · #
  23. Pale green t-shirt
    Plaid violet skirt that stops just above the knees
    Rainbow knee-high socks

    Would a celebrity wear my outfit? I don’t know every single celebrity’s taste of fashion, so I wouldn’t know. I feel some geek-ish cuteness, taking my fushia hair into account. And very colorful. I haven’t worn this much color in a while. I’m annoyed that the socks are so thick, considering how hot it was today, but I do like the way I look right now.
