Some random musings today as I am on set in the desert and a bit hot and frazzled.
We pulled a vintage Betsey Johnson pink tulle dress for said shoot and it reminded how much I love her designs from the 90s. This is similar. She was the ultimate to 13-18-year-old me. I vividly remember going to her store in San Fran and feeling like I was transported to my idea of heaven (checkerboard floors, pink for days, punk rock posters). Here is my prom dress lewk full with kitten heels (2001), one of her stores from the late 90’s, and a fashion show from 1997:
Growing up, I always coveted my mom’s charm bracelet from the 60’s. I have been dying to check out Brooklyn Charm or Charming Tea to make a necklace for myself. I currently have a gold chain with a few charms from New Top in Chinatown, NYC. A fun experience if you haven’t been. These are rad too.
My friend asked me the million dollar question yesterday: Now that Adidas are dead what do we wear instead?! My best guess is Onitsuka Tigers Mexico 66’s (these silver ones are soooooo good). I have never been a Puma girl but I dont’ hate these. I feel like they inspired this Dries sneaker. I’m also a sucker for a fugly fashion fusion sneaker (the only thing stopping me is that they don’t come in pink). These Wales Bonner might be better?
On that note: a Vintage Blue denim western dress I thrifted while prepping the job I am on. Paired with Nike ACG’s. When in Rome!
