Oh, we-ooh, I look just like Buddy Holly
Oh, oh, and you're Mary Tyler Moore
I don't care what they say about us anyway
I don't care 'bout that

Don't you fear, I'm always near
I know that you need help
Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit
You need a guardian

Hoo, hoo
And you know I'm yours
Hoo, hoo
And I know your mine
Hoo, hoo
And that's for all of time
- Weezer

I do love Annie Hall!
So here is my take on this iconic look!
I wanted to make the look a bit more fun, flirty and sexy so I....
added the sheer blouse and put it over my black bustier.
Then of course the Givenchy boots finish the look off with some attitude.
Lastly for my flirty and girly touch I added the sheer tie in my bun!

PS... Do you want to know a secret and get slightly jealous.....?

I scored these trouser for $3! Always try on vintage because you never know it might be made for you.... =)

Hey kids, shake it loose together
The spotlights hitting something
That's been known to change the weather
Well kill the fattened calf tonight
So stick around
You're gonna hear electric music
Solid walls of sound

Say, candy and ronnie, have you seen them yet
But they're so spaced out, bennie and the jets
Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh bennie she's really keen
She's got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine
Bennie and the jets....
-Elton John

I was definitely feeling the funk and wanted to go to the extreme with denim on denim...
I thought pairing a denim top with colored denim would make it a bit more fun and youthful.
Kinda effortless....
And of course I needed my Lita's to funk up the out fit and give it that 70's finishing touch to it!

When we started this band
All we needed, needed was a laugh
Years gone by...
I'd say we've kicked some ass
When I'm enraged
Or hittin' the stage
Adrenaline rushing
Through my veins
And I'd say we're still kickin' ass

Ooo, ahh, kickstart my heart
Hope it never stops
And to think, we did all of this...
To rock
- Motley Crue

Nothing says rock and roll like a great pair of leather pants...
And these ones are my soulmate!
I love how they are a charcoal gray which makes them feel like a faded black...
Gives them a more lived in feel.
I feel the red in the top, shoes, and lips make the outfit pop and gives it more attitude.
For an un expected element I added the denim vest, I was liking how the denim worked with the leather pant so I went with it!
Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!

He took a plane across the sea
To some foreign land
She stayed at home and tried to understand
How someone who had been so close could be so far away
And she became the girl from yesterday

She doesn't know whats right
She doesn't know what's wrong
She only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long
And she doesn't count the teardrops That she's cried while he's away
Because she knows deep in her heart
That he'll be back someday
-Eagles

I am loving that the 70's style are coming back at full force!
The flared jeans and bell bottom pants are on my mind and I am wanting to get my hands on some printed versions!
The flower print cami is so effortless and flower child like especially with braids in my hair...
The shearling jacket pulls the look together =)

When your singled out

Well, it filters through

So lay down
The threat is real
When his sight
Goes red again

Seeing red again
Seeing red again

We had a down pour this past weekend which caused the next couple days to be overcast
with a slight drizzle on and off...
So I pulled the only coat in my closet that has a hood and warm enough for this weather.
Which led me this red number!
My favorite part of this coat besides the vibrant color is....
the faux fur lined hood.
The thing I love about coats like these is that they are almost an outfit itself...
Then when you unzip it you can display a whole other outfit!
Now I added the knee socks over my tights because I wanted to add some flavor to one of my staple tights with short looks.
Especially since I kept the color palette pretty basic (besides the coat)
I just bought this black sweater which has instantly become my go to sweater at my local LF store. They seriously have great pieces I could stay hours in there.....
Well I may have....

I am the girl you know, can't look you in the eye
I am the girl you know, so sick I cannot try
And I am the one you want, can't look you in the eye
I am the girl, you know I lie, I lie and lie
I'm miss world, somebody kill me
Kill me pills
No one cares, my friends
My friend
I'm Miss World, watch me break and watch me burn
No one is listening, my friend
- Hole

It was a Saturday night and my friends and I ventured out and tried a hot new restaurant
called Cleo in Hollywood that is part of the new Redbury Hotel.
The cuisine is Mediterranean and quite tasty!
I bought this maxi skirt awhile back when H&M was having their holiday sale. I loved the print because from afar it looks maybe animal print but it's not.
Pairing it with my bustier makes the long maxi a bit more sexy and edgy...
which is just the way I like it!
Hope you all had a great weekend!

You used to get it in your fishnets
Now you only get it in your night dress
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness
Landed in a very common crisis
Everything's in order in a black hole
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though
That Bloody Mary's lacking in tabasco
Remember when you used to be a rascal?

Oh the boy's a slag
The best you ever had
The best you ever had
Is just a memory and those dreams
But as daft as they seem
As daft as they seem
My love when you dream them up...
- Artic Monkeys

My oh My! St. Patrick's day was super fun t say the least!
My friends and I hit up a bar in West Hollywood called the Hudson where we celebrated and definitely put down our share of green beer...
I scoured my closet for anything green and the only item I had was this tee
so I thought I would channel the style from Dazed and Confused and of course add a bit of my own flavor!
Hope you all had a safe but happy St Patty's Day!

Wake up Maggie, I think I've got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back in school
I know I keep you amused, but I fell I'm being used

Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurts
- Rod Stewart

I just about died when I saw this dress!
I love everything about it especially the Jane Birkin feel...
I knew right away I wanted to pair it with these cork boots of mine to complete that 60's vibe.
Then to make it better...
when I received a package from 80's purple and saw these fantastic hot pink sunnies I added them to give it a funkier look!
