I might be all into head-to-toe black and Beetlejuice and Wednesday Addams and early 90s revival one day, but let's be real, the majority of my personality is still really, really twee. I can't really help that I love, and I mean really freaking love being a girl. I've written about this in the past, but intentional, conscious, femininity is something that I have an enormous passion about - and a lot of fun with. So lace, peter pan collars, little embellished details, lipstick... Well, let's just say I have a hard time resisting. Yes, even in the hot, sweltering summer, I make room in my wardrobe for lace details -- I just ditch the requisite undershirt.

hi nicolette! i "discovered" you through spike the punch's Facebook page, she posted a video you did on how to wear brights. kudos to you, an eloquent voice in fashion! i'm so pleased to see you write as well as you speak. cheers from a new reader:)
ReplyDeleteYou are one of the girliest girls I 'know' and simply just love it. (as I love your Miu Miu collection!!!)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, this outfit is so cute but the shoes. THE SHOES. I'm dead.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely perfect. I've been eyeing that Carmakoma top for ages and I was wondering if it would translate well on a person that wasn't the model on the website. It looks gorgeous on you.

i think maybe your style is changing, or not, but i think you emphasize your girly self lately and i think it looks really incredible on you! especially the way you handle the details and the accessories, they are always picture perfect! so much in love with that belt
ReplyDeleteYou're ridiculously cute! I feel like I don't have a certain look or style. I like to try out lots of different things, and I'm constantly playing dress up. I'm okay with that :)
ReplyDeletein love with your purse and glasses!!...Brune

Love the bag, love the shoes - love, love, love your style sweetie x
ReplyDeletelove this! i'm obsessed with that skirt.
ReplyDeleteI come back to this blog again and again because I love your intentional approach to femininity. As a feminist who loves fashion, it's refreshing and delightful to read someone who can balance the traditional aspects of femininity with a deeper knowledge of gender and society. Also, love the shoes.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post! Being a girl rocks and dressing up makes me really appreciate it :) Lovely nail colour! Do share what brand and shade it is.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous outfit! I totally agree, I am just such a girl. I love all things pink and lacy and pretty and everything else girly! Love your outfit! x

I love this post. I completely identify with you, even though as a young girl I would hate to wear anything to girly since I was a bit of a tomboy. Love the sunglasses.
ReplyDeleteStay fab,

ReplyDeleteEverything about this is perfect! I especially love all the little details, from the lace to the glitter to the kitty cats. Gorgeous! :)
