She wears the pants.

Today was sort of a bore. I woke up late and eventually
made it to the post office where my vintage cat eye raybans
were waiting for me! I already have a pair in brown and 
amazingly found the same ones in black on ebay. They were
limited edition and quite rare, I'll have to post a photo
soon. As far as that, I visited a friend and got dinner. I have had 
waaay too much free time lately and soaking it up before my
fulltime internship at Paper Mag which starts in ahhhhhhhh two 
weeks! Todays look was inspired by Yves Saint Laurent's f/w 08.

I love the highwaisted pants with pleats and balloon action.

I found her off of google images. It was taken in Paris in the 1940s.
These pants are such a classic menswear/feminine look.

of course style icons such as Diane Keaton and Katherine Hepburn
are famous ladies known to wear the trouser. 


& there is my take on the trousers. I bought these at my
friends store, Franny & Roey.  Theyre a french label from
the 80s obviously copying the 40s. I paired it with a vintage
blazer and Norma Kamali tank, and the YSL manifesto tote. 
voila! I unfortunately didnt wear the heels all day, those
one of my favorite black heels, vintage Susan Edward Bennis.
Well I must finish packing, such an early day tomorrow!
Heading to Maine to visit Jade and thrift a lot and then to Boston
for new years eve. I'm so excited to get out of the city and
experience a different new years in another city. 

See you in '09!
