get dressed, let’s go for a drink

by Karen Blanchard
9 August 2009

Tank: Forever 21. Shorts: random sex shop. Boots: LF. Zip bracelet: Tay Trong. Necklace: LF. Leopard leotard: H&M clearance. Blazer: Zara. Coin purse: Balenciaga
Popped out for a couple of drinks locally so I flung on the Elvis shoes (yes that’s my nick name for them and don’t ask me why). The Chloe boots cost too much $$ so these by LF are more than good enough. I LOVE THEM. If anyone’s after a pair, they are comfortable and run true to size. Kamika at the LF flatiron New York store is lovely at helping.
Per my twitter last week, these semi high waisted fake leather shorts were picked up from a sex shop like they’re meant to be used by girls that feature on TUBEV or somewhere similar. Bondage thoughts aside, I just love the rock feel of them (makes a change from denim cut offs too). After the shots, we headed to the bar for shots of another kind. (ok not really. I had wine but the shot/shot thing sounded witty. ish…..).

    Adorable shorts! I just got my first pair of leather shorts and I wear them constantly now! Best part is, I know they’ll be great in the fall too.

    No way, those aren’t the Chloe boots? I seriously am in love…was going to drool over the Chloe Susans, but now will just have to do the same over the LF ones.

    Thanks for sharing.

    p.s. am thinking about visiting a sex shop to see if I can source a pair of PVC leggings. You’re not the only one…fashion from anywhere and everywhere, right?! 🙂

    mmm, rock n’ roll!

  21. Karen says:

    Antonia! Yes I knew about the Lucky magazine ad!! I am stoked! Thank you for letting me know though ; )

    Nina !!! – hello you!! thank you!

    Anika – yes I think there’s no where that I won’t look. I have no qualms….

    Yes the LF’s are definitely a good enough copy and just a nice boot in their own right. I can see me wearing them till they fall apart along with the fringed All Saints.

    Allison – 190 i think?

    Dominika – I have a shoe ‘problem’ but thank you ; )
