The Young Person's Guide To The Orchestra, Op. 34: Themes A-F - Leonard Bernstein & The New York Philharmonic

 (Raccoon/ Cartoon Dress: ChicWish, Red ammo belt: Karl Largerfeld, Beat-up loafers: Zara, Bag and scarf: Vintage) #teenvogue

This is the only thing I have ever purchased clothes wise that my boyfriend said was ridiculous. Considering everything, I am impressed it took this long. And I am not denying that this dress is ridiculous, it is hardly the product of a sane mind. But it has embroidered racoons- the cutest masked villains and a tent, and some lady bugs and a compass and a log and some blue tits and what I think is a portable record player. Basically it is an accumulation of all things I love about Moonrise Kingdom, except Suzy's cape coat (which I need some derivative of).

Zany purchase- just saying- but it makes me happy and clothes should do that. Plus some cute old lady in a cafe told me she liked my outfit, so it's grandma approved.

The Like: Narcissus in a Red Dress

(Lanvin for H&M copy: Chicwish, Origami clutch: DIY, Shoes: DIY) #teenvogue

Oh, a double DIY outfit. I saw this DIY post of this Maison Martin Margiela bag here on These Days, A bargain with just using old fabric that was actually used to upholster a chair and some excess curtain fringing. Much cheaper than even the sale price. Dress is a copy from the Lanvin for H&M collection that many years after it came out I decided I actually liked it so found this copy on Chicwish. Fraction of the Lanvin price which is a good thing as this was actually the first time I wore it... but now I have an experienced the tulle in motion I might wear it a bit more.
