always wear rubbers

by Karen Blanchard
5 May 2010


Dress: Forever21. Bag: Thrift (DIY studded). Black necklace: LF. Silver necklace: Foley & Corinna. Wellies: Rickys. Shades: Ray Ban. Large black and large triple amber rings: New Orleans street vendor (will do a separate post on the rings and the vendor’s jewellery). Nails: Sally Hansen ‘Pixel Pretty’
Here’s the first batch of shots taken at Jazz Fest (this was Sunday).
It rained off and on and I couldn’t give a toss. Fling on a pair of rubber wellies and your good to go.
See you soon for the next lot.
God. I haven’t even unpacked yet….

    Your height allows you to pull everything off. Wellies with a crochet dress..I would look like a damn fool! So sorry it rained, but you look gorge!

    You look adorable! Haha, I’m sure you know this, but “rubbers” so doesn’t mean rain boots in American English, so I of course busted a gut laughing when I read the post title. So you know thanks for the safe sex advice. Wrap it up and all that.

    Also, those rings are seriously wicked. I bought a fantastic ring the last time I was in New Orleans, then totally left it at someone’s house. And they never sent it back. Epic fail.

    Hope you had an amazing time!
