Well honestly I cannot really call my blog leopard and lipstick if I am not going to wear said combination. So I thought I would show you one of my favourite leopard print garments, which is a 1960s cape, it was a marvellous find some years ago and was rather cheap. I do feel magical when I wear capes and I have quite few, so I feel magical quite a lot. This ensemble is inspired by Norma Desmond and Margo Channing, you need sass and a delusional attitude towards life to wear this kinda get up and I definitely have at least one of those.
Yeah I know the dress doesn't really go but I was trying on the dress as a maybe to take to Paris. The dress is 1940s find from this etsy store, that was so cheap I thought I was mistaken.

I am wearing it with a leopard print belt, leopard necklace, big ass fluffy petticoat and mustard suede shoes that I have wrecked.
Oooh gotta love sparkly sleeves. I feel I need to go to some kind of cocktail hour in this dress with a cigarette in a holder a la Norma and Margo.

And what kind of woman doesn't have a chandelier in every room?!
Ooooh I love the cape! What a magnificent find! :) That dress is lovely as well, I'd definitely take it to Paris if I were going. My friend just got back and I so wish I could've joined her!

What a killer outfit! You look great. I wish I had sass but I think I probably have, at least, a delusional outlook on life, too. Hehe.

Dakota: Thank you, it's definitely going in my suitcase now.
ReplyDeleteAre you dressing up: Thank you that's lovely of you to say.
Andi: Hah thank's my dear, glad we both have similar outlooks on life!
In answer to your question on my blog, for that style I used a set of hot rollers (only using the small & medium ones) and just brushed the hair under. I've done similar with a flat-iron and just curling the hair under but it only works on my hair when it's short-ish like it is, now. Hope that helps a bit! =D
ReplyDeleteErrr...I appear to be signed in with a different account and I've no idea how that happened! Either way, still Andi!
