Mod Like




Due to a spat of overindulgence over the holiday weekend my outfits have been on the stretchy/baggy side and therefore, not that inspiring. What's a fashion blogger supposed to do during these less-than-inspired slumps? I mean, I couldn't even be bothered to browse the Cyber Monday deals! I must be coming down with something. So here instead is an outfit from last week. A little modtastic dress from Ted Baker, I love the drape of the sleeves.

To Ted and Back




I sauntered into Ted Baker last weekend for a gander at their fall collection (really, it had nothing to do with the Tedtini's they serve) and after a couple of gin based beverages I sauntered out with a bag full of stuff (I'm guessing that's the point of aforementioned 'tini's). They have some really great accessories and 60's inspired pieces in there at the moment.

Bejeweled




The only way I can make jeans and a t-shirt tolerable is to over-accessorize.

Faux Show




This fur is so faux it took me 1/2 an hour to rub it down with Bounce sheets before I stopped sticking to everything within a  2 foot radius, at least I smell dryer fresh. This outfit really appeals to the 60's girl in me... the girl with the massive vinyl collection who has a crush on Lindsey Buckingham (the way he looked back then) and knows all the words to Aquarius. It also makes me look a bit like Rachel Zoe if she put on 100 pounds.


  • Fur Vest : F21
  • Top : H&M
  • Jeans : Vintage Levis
  • Boots : Seychelles

Slacks



My reaction to a weekend of burlesque shows and a play about vibrators was to wear something decidedly unsexy. Should I read something into that?


  • Trousers, Top & Shoes : F21
  • Bag : Butter Toast Vintage

Too Cool To Bare?




It was 59 degrees outside when I left for work this morning, a temperature so long overdue after the sweltering Phoenix summer that any and all women I know have been donning their tights in rejoice. I, renegade that I am, dare to go bare for little bit longer and feel the chill with pleasure.


  • Jacket, T-shirt & Scarf : H&M
  • Skirt : F21
  • Booties : Seychelles
  • Necklace : Dolly & Boy
  • Cuff : Charlotte Russe

Cargo



I drank a bit too much red wine while I was making meatballs last night. As a result I had little motivation for anything, let alone glamour, this morning. So, having downed a couple of cups of tea, I shimmied into these skinny cargo pants and donned a vintage scarf and called it a day. Ladies, on mornings such as these the head scarf is your best friend.


  • Scarf, Belt & Bag : Vintage
  • Shirt : H&M

Cuffed Jeans



I tend not to wear jeans too often. I find them slovenly and a little lazy. My aversion has inadvertently made them a challenge to me and, in doing so, has taken all the laziness out of denim. So here they are, starting to feel fresh again, with something as simple as a cuff (oh, and the military vest doesn't hurt either).




  • Vest & Shoes  : F21

La-ti-da




So I was Annie Hall for Halloween. I stood out among all the Scottsdale women because I was wearing clothes. I've got to admit, some of those slutty bumble bee costumes were actually pretty scary; some things should really be left to the imagination ladies.
