Nothing like a men's tuxedo shirt turned into a dress!

 You would never deny that a white shirt is an essential, but an arsenal of good white shirts may be essential as well!  You can never ever go wrong with a white shirt!   So many options, so many ways to wear it.  I found this tuxedo version when vintage shopping recently and I thought it would be the perfect dress/shirt/layering piece...you name it!  Obviously it can be worn many ways, half way unbuttoned with leather pants, or shorts, who knows maybe with a sequin mini!  Either way its a new go to for my wardrobe!!  Nothing like a men's tuxedo shirt turned dress!

Have a super awesome day!

Nothing wrong with a little snakeskin

Good Morning!!!!

I love to constantly be on the look out for really good pieces that I know I will get a ton of wear out of, jumpsuits, shorts, crew necks, etc.  However, the thing I actually look for and will invest more money is the pieces I really don't need and that are more of a statement! Chances are I will wear the heck out of it!!  This snakeskin skirt is one of those pieces!  It's by no means an everyday piece, but its a definite go to and can be worn so many different ways!  You just can't beat a little multi colored snakeskin and a huge slit!!

Have an awesome day!!!!

Orange You Glad it's Sunny

Good Morning!!

Today's outfit is one of my favorite color combo's, light blue and orange!  Its a winning combo if I do say so myself!!  I have found that light blue as well as grey sometimes work as the best neutral.  I love orange and these shorts are a definite go to in the Summer.  However,  its been getting a little colder in L.A. and I've been so excited to wear coats, sweaters, leather, etc. and in turn I've been wearing a lot of  dark colors, leather, black, vampy colored nails, and I love it, but I truly love color!  So for today a little color!!

I hope you're having such a wonderful Holiday Season!!
Talk to you soon!

B-b-b-b-eanie and the Jets

Well hello there and I hope you are having a seriously rad week so far!! hehe! Not to mention, I hope you had an absolutely wonderful Thanksgiving!!

I am really all about trying to get into the cold weather looks, but seriously its just been so darn warm in L.A.!!  I'm not saying I'm complaining, but I really could use just a little cold weather and maybe even some snow!!!  I have however, been able to bust out the ol' beanie and oh man I love this beanie so much!!  So why not throw it on with a black cocktail dress!

I had needed a black dress as very specific attire for an event, and of course I knew exactly what I wanted the dress to look like (well, to be honest I wanted the Balenciaga black ruffle skirt with a high slit from their past runway collection to be completely honest!).  Either way, I wanted volume and I wanted a big shoulder.  So I searched high and low and after much hem and haw I found this one in the most unexpected vintage store, and the minute I slipped it on it was mine.  So there you have it!

Talk to you soon!

Simple In It's Paisleyness

Good Morning!!!

Today's post is simple in its paisleyness.  I love paisley (if you didn't already know this)!!!  These pants may or may not have been borrowed (wink, wink) from the raddest guy around aka Noah Dean.   I really haven't stopped wearing them since I discovered them.  They are the perfect loose fit and the colors are exuberant!  Awesome for an easy go to outfit,  all you need is a simple tank and some classic patent pumps!

Anyways I hope you have an amazing rest of your week!!

Talk to you soon!

My Uniform

TOP of the morning to you!!

Today's post is seriously a peek into what I wear everyday, seriously.  I wear some version of this outfit at least every week.  As I've mentioned before, I really am a t-shirt and jeans (or in most cases t-shirt and cutoffs) kinda girl.  It of course depends on what I am doing, but when I'm working I like to not fuss, keep it simple.  This way, it makes putting on my favorite gold pieces or something extra eccentric, an absolute blast to wear!

Anyways, I'm sporting a new vintage tee, old Diesel jeans that I seriously love, and my coat from a few years ago.  Also, I know I've already mentioned it but in case you haven't heard there is a few new arrivals that will be coming to Fashion or Famine vintage store, and you really shouldn't miss out, they are some of my favorite pieces yet!!  Keep staying tuned!!  Oh and one last thing, there is still a few items left that are on super sale so don't forget to check those out as well!!

Have a great week! Talk to you soon!

Crocodile Rock

Hello!!

It's almost friday and I'm not going to lie I'm pretty darn excited about it!!

I'm not usually an all black wearing type of girl, but I am definitely not opposed to it, and sometimes it just couldn't be more right, ya know?  Especially when it involves black harem pants.  I have really been into white and black as well.   I wore this outfit another time with white pumps and I loved how simple it was yet very chic and a little unexpected!

Also last but definitely NOT least is my new favorite bag from Joe's Jeans, the quality is amazing and I love the embossed crocodile print in the soft leather!  It's been my serious go to bag.....well, who am I kidding I've been wearing it everyday!

Anyways, I hope you have an awesome weekend!!! Oh, and is there anything in particular that is your favorite to look for when vintage shopping....your most coveted item that you can't get enough of?  I would love to hear!!

Hawaiian Per-Suede-sion

 

Good Morning!
Wow, it officially feels like fall in L.A. even though its still not very cold yet!  To be honest I am trying to get every last summery outfit in before I can't wear my favorite summer staples (cutoffs, vintage tanks, you get the idea!).  Although I couldn't be more ready for fall as I've mentioned before! I am so excited for sweaters, trousers, vintage sweatshirts, boots, the whole shebang!!

Anyways, this outfit is a simple end of summer outfit thats all about the Hawaiian shirt, I will be wearing this shirt into fall with different pieces such as leather pants, slouchy denim, maybe even just the collar popping out of one of my favorite vintage sweatshirts! Who knows! The possibilities are endless.  Anyways have a great rest of the week!
Talk to you soon!

Oh, and keep your eye out on the vintage store as there will be new arrivals very soon!!

Is it Fall Yet?

GOOD morning!!! I hope you had such an awesome long weekend!

I thought I would start off the week with a fall outfit, even though its still pretty hot in L.A., but you know what, its starting to look more and more like fall and I'm just getting so darn excited about it!! Obviously, what better way to put together a fall outfit then to start it off with an amazing vintage leather jacket (which you can never go wrong with) silky camo pants with zippers (which is by far my favorite part of these pants) and white pumps.  I've never been so into white pumps as I am right now, I want to wear them with everything.  They are so unexpected and I love them!

Anyways hope you have a fantastic rest of your week!
