Here We Go, Here We Go Again

I've been tagged by Little Boat to give a basics post, which I have avoided in the past since this challenge seems like so much effort to dig through my wardrobe and dresser to find "basic" items...
Two of my basics are black liquid eyeliner and various scarves, all are either secondhand or gifts or once belonged to my mother (and I have more).eyeliner, vintage, mirror, make, up, applicationscarves, vintage, secondhand, style, fashion, thrifted, the, clothes, horse, theclotheshorse
I am addicted to ballet flats despite being 5'1" (I always give my exact height, because what some people term "short" is very vague) and my adoration of vests is nothing new.ballet, flats, shoes, style, vintage, personal, fashion, the, clothes, horse, theclotheshorsevests, inspiration, wall, style, menswear
Nearly nary a day goes by that I don't wear a full/a-line/circle skirt and this is the very basic outfit I am wearing today.skirts, layered, style, personal, fashion, vintage, secondhand, the, clothes, horsedaily, outfit, style, personal, fashion, the, clothes, horse

gorgeous scarves and lovely flats

Vain and Vapid said...

Cool post.... I totally agree about the scarves, one can never have enough of them and the liquid liner, both things are so Bridgette Bardot...

Nice, nice nice and nice.

(and to b e a little more axact- really nice pics in this post, nice outfits in the posts below too :)

Romeika said...

From ur pics, I've always thought u were like 5'4''! I'm neither very tall, and I prefer to keep flat when it comes to shoes as well, since I walk so much everywhere, and heels are just not comfy enough.

Love ur collection of scarves!

The Stylish Wanderer said...

all my basics are like that too. Except for the liquid liner, i think its scary to put on.

The Stylish Wanderer said...

oh thats hilarious that you are putting on your liner with your little hand held mirror necklace

Luxe. said...

I couldnt tell you how many vests I have!

Shen-Shen said...

Those scarves are lovelyyy :D

Jill said...

Quite jealous of your collection of ballet flats and skirts. Definetly agree about vests, love them.

yulanda said...

Cute pictures -- a great way of displaying your basics for us to see. I'm addicted to ballet flats as well and I've only got an inch on you (although apparently I'm actually 5'2 3/4").

Natasha said...

I am definitely addicted to black liquid eyeliner too. I sing its praises from rooftops, but most people seem too nervous to use it because they think their hands will slip.

Super Kawaii Mama said...

I too am addicted to liquid eye liner. I love the one by Shisedo, with its fine brush tip.
On another note, I'd love to exchange some link love with you. Please come on over an visit me at www.superkawaiimama.blogspot.com

enc said...

Nice basics. I'll admit I'd been curious to see what you would term your basics, so this is fascinating to me.

Secretista said...

Sheryl Wong said...

nice job...i would have problems with basics too..hahaha

i love wearing heels; i feel like i'm missing something with flats..

btw, i love the pictures in your previous post!

Amelia said...

I love your scarves! Today's outfit is nice, too--I have a thing for navy.

miss hautttefashion said...

cute shoess it looks like you have an amazing wardrobe!!

On Track said...

I can't believe you dress so stylishly every day, that is such a great effort, and great for us blog readers to ;)

Those heels look lovely on you, I love a beautiful pair of heels x

atelier said...

I love the picture you are with your flats! so cutee!! I am too much into scarves at the moment, yours look good;)!

Oh! about Edie Sedgwick I don't think she was kind of Paris Hilton because she was into art, she was Warhol's muse for a while, and Paris... well, I don't consider her an artist or related with art. But I am happy you think like that because I've never heard anyone saying something not-good about her;) It's cool to hear different opinions.

thesil said...

I am a fan of ballet flats, too!

Benedicte said...

Like your shoe collection!

Charlotte said...

Cool pictures and wow! What an outfit...love the double-third-a-lot-of-layer-from-different-skirts skirt :-)

selinaoolala said...

i love the creative photographs, they're a pleasure to see!

the iron chic said...

Hey!
I'm in the middle of photographing my basics post too. I got exhausted mid way though-it's an on going process.
I even did a little shoe circle just like you did....

Andy said...

Oh, the picture with the flats is amazing! I really like it, haha.

kori said...

i'm 5' and sometimes i feel a little lousy about meself when im in flats and not booties or anything with heels. but you've definitely changed that because you look so awesome and cute in all your outfits with flats. (:

thanks much. (:]

(ps: i always thought you were really leggy because of your poses in your pictures. they all elongate your legs and calves nicely!)

d. chedwick bryant said...

Nice shots--you have to come to NYC and visit my fave dressmaker/ clothing store with me--

Ladybird said...

Love the pics :)

LML said...

this reminds me i have to do my basics post...

diamondcanopy said...

Your shoes look fab like that! Can't believe your 5'1" (same as me) but you look way taller in your photos. Must be the good outfit choices!

Jen (MahaloFashion) said...

Your closet is full of goods, I would love to visit it someday!
