  • red ribbon as headband
  • red vintage slip
  • blue (dyed) slip
  • red stretchy belt
  • flower clips from h&m
  • seamed stockings
  • black maryjanes

There’s a fine line between two slips=a dress and two slips=wearing lingerie out of the house.
I’m still not totally convinced that this is a good outfit… maybe the slip would have to be less of a lipstick red for me to believe it.
This outfit is inspired by:
Bette Davis in Of Human Bondage when she’s strung out and sick.
Courtney Love circa 1994 – lots of lace, red lipstick and mary jane shoes.

August 9, 2009August 9, 2009Snow White and the DeZurick Sisters combined into some kind of all mighty country singing dainty dame, they might make an outfit that looks a bit like this one. I love the silhouette of this dress! I rescued it from Buffalo Exchange a few years ago for a mere $11. It was marked down because of a rather simple rip at the neckline, which I turned into a lower geometrical neckline with a little mending. I just adore the puffy sleeves, the lace trim, and the simple blue/brown square pattern.

I topped the outfit off with lots of loopy kisscurls and a big red bow to compliment the Snow White vibe.

  • Red satin bow
  • Russian Red lipstick – by MAC
  • 1950s? cotton cowgirl dress – Buffalo Exchange, Eugene, OR
  • Black flats – Target

It’s still an amazing 107F in Texas! I cannot wait for a month to pass… I know in September that I’ll be able to wear real outfits again! It’s so bright outside today that this was my best squinting shot that still shows off all four kiss curls!
