my girl judy

judy aldridge is really cool. i am a total fangirl. 

i am certain we'd hang out in real life. i'd make her laugh and she'd let me raid her closet.

we'd cook figure friendly dishes and then eat bowls of popcorn while watching movies together. 

at this point we are only instagram pals but i'll take it. 

if you follow her on instagram you know she has recently redecorated her house using thrift store finds. her sofa re-do inspired my own. more on that soon. 

her daughter, jane aldridge aka sea of shoes, recently posted on her blog the final result of the makeover. read about it! it's much earthier, more bohemian than the previous incarnation. which you can see here. 

 

 

here are a few snaps from jane's blog..

 

it's so personal feeling. and on a super budget. 

she recently posted on instagram that she ended up not loving the gray walls in her bedroom so she's re-painting them white. a girl after my own heart. don't like your walls? fucking repaint them then!! 

rumor has it she will be back to blogging soon.  

 



more looks from PFW

my heart is heavy this morning because nicolas still hasn't come home.

i'll thank you in advance for sparing me your tales of how your kitty never came home because he went off to die a sad, lonely death.  (someone on facebook yesterday wasn't so sparing)

instead let's look at some more unattainable outfits and shoes and skinniness.

 

clever idea. slip dress over sweater with belt. cute hair. 

sometimes all you need is a good cape/cloak. 

 

not sure which one i love more, left or right. i am not a fan of those shoes on the right. but the rest is yummy. 

similar denim jumpsuits here , here , here.

if you have not tried a jumpsuit i think you should. 

 

i am behind those boots 1000%.

 

i think that's head to toe black denim. 

i couldn't love this more. 

 

there's those weird shoes again. those sleeves tho.

 

what can i surmise about myself here?

i like black. all black. i like jeans with something interesting up top. i like denim in general.

i like statement shoes. unless they look like a genie slipper. 

i like casual mixed with luxe.

i like a good coat. and when in doubt- belt it.

i am going crazy with sadness and anger over nicolas. please please don't tell me anything negative in the comments. thanks! i am accepting positive comments and good advice though. 

don't hesitate to tell me about your crystals, map dowsing and animal esp. 

 

thanks. 

 

shit i would wear- fave looks from PFW

such a great mix of looks. ladies was dressed up and down and all over the map. 

there were sweaters. and coats. lots of coat porn. 

and the usual shoe porn. specifically at dior. the boot du jour at dior were mid-thigh length, candy-colored patent leather boots with a colored lucite heel. 

pretty spectacular. but where on earth would you wear them?

i suppose that's not at all the point. i mean since when was fashion week about practicality?

although i do admire the woman who says, nah..i'm just wearing jeans and sneakers to this shit. 

because comfort is pretty awesome when you think about it. 

but i also don't shade the woman who says,  i am going to freak people right the fuck out with my fashion choices. grandpa's old dirty jeans and frankenstein shoes? YES! no make up? YES! 

sometimes looking straight up horrible IS a fashion choice. 

 

 

 

could never actually in real life wear this because boobs but wow. 

shit i would wear- fave looks from MFW

i can't with milan.

these bitches brought the fashion heat!

a little crazy, a lot snappy.

 

i will admit to being mostly intrigued by the pillows.

bye.

shit i would wear- fave looks from LFW

while saving my faves from all the fashion weeks it started to become apparent that i like jeans more than i thought. and i do like them paired with a silky blouse. 

i would kill to know where this pink blouse comes from. it looks vintage but if any of you know please do tell. 

that color and those sleeves!

 

erin wasson would look good in a poop diaper and suit made of bees. 

i'd totally fall down in those shoes. 

 

pernille is always a standout for me. we have similar hair. 

i have a version of this dress and i am totally wearing it with tennis shoes now.

see? #inspired.

 

pernille again in my favorite of all.
