Chris keeps asking me to predict the future, I wonder why...
Turban: Vintage ($10)
Sunnies: Vintage ($2)
Shoes: Karen Millen v. Buffalo Exc. ($40)
This is actually a repeat of an outfit I wore this past weekend. It's one of those outfits that started the day as a basic dress and sandals and by days end had morphed into something completely different and slightly more complicated. But awesome. I love when that happens, sometimes inspiration doesn't hit until later in the day.
I found this turban at a vintage store while out on a thrifting excursion with my friend Jess. It's one of those things that I put on as a joke to show her, and once seeing it on my head I was convinced it must be mine. Paired with some huge vintage sunnies, and some major platforms it's the perfect 70's revival ensemble. Or, all I need is a feather and a large brooch and I match Marco the Magi behind me. Maybe I can pick up some extra hours as a part-time fortune teller.
Chris follow-up appointment went well today, his hand is healing! there is going to be one gnarly scar though! I'm keeping things short tonight, we just got back from Boston and have some dvd's of Monster Quest to power through.
Goodnight!

I love this outfit! The mixed pattern on the skirt and waist of the dress make it really interesting. I like the turban too, although I don't think I could ever pull it off! It looks perfect with the huge sunglasses.
Oh goodness, LOVE the turban!

Great turban colour! Looks awesome with your hair! -Angela
I'm really glad to hear chris is doing alright!
I love the turban. For some reason I've been obsessed with them lately. But I rarely wear them with my hair down. (... hum ideas...)
great turban! good to hear his hand is healing :)
I loveee this dress, and the little belt pattern on it is so pretty too.

I'm definitely seeing the turban trend emerging in the UK, it's defintely only going to get popular. You make a great fortune teller btw! x
Awesome turban. I never thought one could looks so good.
the turban is such a good idea. I like putting on or taking off random items throughout the day too.
I liked that dress the first time you wore it and I still think it's great. I love how there's the little guatamalan-y looking belt strip. And that turban is excellent, to say nothing of the styling and background!
I love the whole outfit. You look beautiful. And the turban is nice.
Hi! Just found your blog. Love, love love it! Funny, I've been stalking this dress on Modcloth. I love the flowers with the ikat belt! Then add the turban and it's all you. Love the way you work it.

wow. you rock that turban.
i think what makes the difference (as opposed to all the awkward turban wearing going out there) is having your hair down; the volume balances out the turban.
well done.
This outfit is SO amazing. And the backdrop is perfect!
I wish I could pull of a turban!

i love the turban, it goes perfectly with the location you chose for your shoot!
the whole outfit looks amazing, like you said; a total 70's revival! you hair really makes it x
That uses to happens to me. I start the morning with a simple outfit: just a shorts and a white top...then along the day I pick a heels, or add a headband or any other accesoire...and voila!
yOUR outfitt today is awesome. Epic. One of my favourites...specially the turbant!

oh man, this dress is just the most darling thing with its pretty wallpaper florals and indian inspired waistband. how unexpected, but so very cute! love the green turban with the big sunnies too. i found an identical turban in ivory a while back, and you're definitely making me want to wear it more!
Also, I wanted to thank you for your comment in response to my fashion blues post. I did the same thing as you and recently quit my job to start focusing on the blog and fashion more, and well, as much as I have enjoyed the time off and the time to really pull my blog and shop together, I'm beginning to miss the boring hours at work where I was forced to plan, plan, plan and then come home and execute. I think I'm also starting to realize that fashion may not be the right industry for me. As much as I love it, it seems to be something I grow tired with after a while. I guess that's a sure sign of a great hobby! :) Thanks for your advice and good luck at getting everything back in place on your end too!
oh yeah!
i forgot to ask if you'd be at NYFW?
HA I love this! The turban with your sunnies looks fab, but it's so perfect with the matching turban fellows behind you - fantastic.
i like your hair ;)
Love your hair.
