big retro fantasy hair styles with a modern twist

i am a very nostalgic person. i am drawn to decades past. i am also drawn to fantastical things. hence why the images above have been floating around in my mind. i love the mix of retro styles with modern, dramatic flair. i think i may have to try one of these out for an event i have tonight. i will take plenty of pictures if i do!

also, i spent last night around the city with my friend lydia of pierogi picnic. it was fantastic! we ate thai food {our favorite!!}, walked to a fashion event, took pictures of graffiti, filmed cool things...and guess what?! i am going to work out my new blogshop video skills with it this weekend! can't wait to make something semi-awesome for you to enjoy!

rachel comey :: midge suit

rachel comey, why do you have to make me lust after each and every collection??

it's unfair. i need to share the love. your swimwear collection isn't helping this any. especially midge.

swan lake :: vintage sunglasses

 i am pretty sure i need to find a genie to grant me three wishes so that i can get my hands on a pair of these this summer...

soooo adorable! if anyone knows where i can purchase a pair, please let me know!
