IF KIM WAS A...

SOFT SLOUCHY INVITING LUXURY 
BEDDING SET 



When I saw this outfit on Kim, my mind immediately went to luxury bedding. Just like this literal bedding from the crazy talented russian artist Vadim Cherniy, this kind of look doesn't give it all away, but makes you want to wrap yourself around it and find out if it's real or synthetic.
love love love. 

"Guilt free" alternatives

For the sheets, my suggestion is grab a black sheet set and create your own message with iron-on transfers.

FRONT STREET FASHION


Although there was a language barrier, there was not a style barrier between us.
 It took probably a bit too much time to explain what I wanted to do (take her picture) and why I wanted to do it (thought she looked cute). 
But, when she finally realized I was harmless (after cooing over her vintage Coach bag), she went from deadpan to "this is my good side".

EVERYDAY SUPERSTAR


If SJP can do it, we can too- "guilt free"style. The first look is more versatile than the second. Love the pop of color in the shoes.
                                                                      

This full length canary yellow Valentino literally jumped off the red carpet and into my dreams. Then, sadly, I woke up and found an everyday alternative in this "See by Chloe" blouse.

GUILT FREE HEAD TO TOE


This beauty (named Abby) was the first girl to catch my eye at the launch party for the Hip and Urban Girl's Guide website launch party.  And when I leaned in to do a little schmoozing, I found out she is the epitomy of "Guilt Free Style".  Her fun floral dress was a purchase from one of my favorite haunts- Winners.  Her bracelets and jewellery are all vintage finds. The pièce de résistance was her acid washed crossbody/shoulder bag that she (get this) has held onto since the ripe age of SIX years old!!!!!!  


Super sweet she was!  We can all take a page out of her book and think twice about discarding everything and anything. I'm not promoting hoarding, but if something is special to you (really special) hold on a little longer and it will be a treasure one day.
DO IT LOVE IT.
