moodboard


Some things on my mind: This brilliant use of a college sweater-paired with a white roll neck and a shiny snakeskin skirt by American Vogue's Preetma Singh via Vanessa Jackman, amazing Cheap Monday heels, Jeff Wall's 'Picture For Women' which I saw at the Art, Love and Politics in the 80's exhibition at the Museum of Contemporarty Art in Chicago a couple of weeks ago, Ting Soda, Eleanore of Ytligheter, she who will always be one of my perpetual woman crushes and who has managed to find a gold hairband from H&M (I've been vigorously checking online for so long, does anyone know where to get hold of one?), Chalayan Hussein's incredible silver shoe and matchy trouser combo from the AW12 collection.

I love ting! It's so hard to come across but I remember a bar in Brick Lane serving it with rum!

i do not know about h and m, or the exact style of headband you seek, but i have a gold one that came from wal-mart in a pack with a blue silver one. probably also available at rite-aid or cvs or walgreens and the like. total impulse purchase that has proven indispensable.

i want a sweatshirt, no hoody, from my alma mater.... i doubt i can achieve looking that elegant though.

your moodboards are always great! Love the Cheap Moday heels, they look really comfy and classy at the same time.
And I don't know where to find that gold hairband either, but it looks awesome.

I purchased one recently & it does do the job but I find that the hinged part is quite visible (chunky, not totally 'smooth') but I guess you could turn it around a little to make it less noticeable. The H&M one looks quite seamless.
