pinky

by Karen Blanchard
11 July 2010

Tshirt & gold ring: H&M (clearance). Baggy shorts: Levi’s. Shoes: Topshop Unique Skater boots: (clearance/sale). Fedora: Trash and Vaudeville. Necklaces: Courtesy of Fashionology. Bag: Thrift (DIY studded). Pink stone ring: YSL. Lips: MAC Pink Nouveau lipstick & Magenta lip liner
Before going for drinks, we took some pics – including in a laundrette. I faked waiting for clothes in the dryer, which was about as believable as England winning the World Cup.
I see a subconscious theme going on with me recently and per my twitter post yesterday, my order of these confirmed it (at least in my head).
Pink feels like summer.
ps. I will figure out a ‘ How To’ post one day on my hair since I’ve been asked a few times about it ; -)

  66. fshnonmymind says:

    I remember seeing these wedges in Topshop when I visited NY in early spring. I love how you paired them with a simple tee and shorts. Your legs look a million miles long (super jealous).

    Yes, I would love to see a tutorial on your hair. I had to wash my hair yesterday and actually wore it out to dry (normally blow dry and flat iron). I loved the wavyness I had going on, but some of it was frizzy and undefined. You look like you have nice curls all the way around.

  68. Mcmaris says:

  74. akaCola says:

    yes the shoes are quite amazing BUT just one question….can we have your legs??? 🙂 my goodness your legs are gorg…youre gorg! very beauiful post!

  76. Julia says:

    hey everyone!! i just bought these shoes TODAY at topshop in New York!! They are only 70$$$$$$ !!! If you live in New York…call them && if they don’t have your size go to topshop website…they are full price but you can buy them and return them and get a price change in New York! To find them online they’re in the shop: last chance or something. theyre called Skater Boots BY UNique!! :)))

  77. Jenny says:

    Those shoes are simply amazing! It’s so cool that they combined a wedge with a sneaker, and they did it in a way that doesn’t look tacky!

    We should exchange links!

  93. Moda Epidemic says:

    I just saw those shoes at TopShop in New York.
    How funny. I even took a picture of them and I was thinking to myself. These are so hot but so high…

  94. Karen says:

    Moda Epidemic – I thought the same thing at first and tried on both colours at their full retail price weeks ago. The price drop convinced me to just make them work.

    Eden – thank you : ))

  95. josieRbaby says:

    I tried on the shoes the other day.. they were IMPOSSIBLE to walk in without thigh spasms. I congratulate you for that feat alone.

  96. Karen says:

    JosieRbaby – lol!!! They are v high but good enough if not doing a ton of walking. I could never have bought them full price.

  97. Maiah @ SG&TC says:

    Aside from loving everything about this photo shoot, I love that you are in MY laundromat. One thing I adore about your blog: catching glimpses of different areas in Astoria. Lovely!

  99. joy says:

    Those boots are the sneaker heel done right. I can’t believe I am saying that.
