New heights...

Scout t-shirt dress, Ashish x Topshop platforms, vintage arm cuff

T-shirt dresses are what I live for... slouchy silhouettes that allow me to borrow from the Rachel Zoe school of accessorizing. The more the better. This is what I'm wearing to grab dinner and drinks with my friend Tim. We like to talk about socialists, where Asian people come from, and why women would look better with shaved eyebrows (his opinion, not mine).

Now, the shoes... they feel epic. They LOOK epic. I posted about them months ago, they're finally here, and they're the most comfortable (and tallest!) shoes I own. For those who missed out - the nice people at Topshop have informed me that they will be re-stocking Ashish platforms in every color/ pattern very soon. Good luck!

Incredible outfit, love the slouchy dress contrasted with the insane platforms. I was a bit hesitant after seen heaps of bloggers go nuts for them, but I reckon it looks kickass on you! You definitely styled them well, simple yet unexpected.

Stacy said...

and the bicep cuff, of course

lacy said...

yeah, how high are those hooves? i actually love them and was thinking of getting the black ones (i know... i'm too chicken to get a print) but am not sure theyd be too functional on these uneven streets. i'd probs collapse and break both ankles my first step out of the bldg /:

I have shoe envy. And I haven't LOVED a pair of shoes in a long along time.

Pas Comme Des Enfants said...

Kim said...

noura. said...

I bought really similar ones from Office cause the topshop ones were out.
I hope they're comfy too.
They look amazing on you.

dee p. said...

Nice shoes. I have an (off-topic) question. I'm the same size as you, almost exactly. How/where do you find pants that fit? I swim in pants, even 0's. Do you alter them all or what? My butt looks pathetically flat in all my pants, I hate it.

Isabel said...

Shaved eyebrows, huh? That's strange.

kei said...

No, no, it's Rachel Zoe's school of "Excessorizing"! I just learned this word from her newsletter:

"Excessories = larger than life pieces of jewelry. i.e. chandelier earrings, cocktail rings and statement necklaces."

Elisabeth Lacunza said...

:O greatnesss!

Winnie said...

Er....let's ignore those two comments above now shall we?

I love those Ashish boots on you, they are incredible in real life but far too high for me. They look awesome.

Rozdeen said...

So glad to hear they're restocking! They look divine.

I must say, I wasn't all that attracted to these shoes when I saw them at first. Seeing them on you however, WOW! They look amazing.

Coconuts &amp; Coppertone said...

with you on the slouchy silhouettes... leaving things to the imagination once in a while literally (not seeing every curve) and figuratively (creativity freedom with shoes, accessories etc.) are necessary

yum yum yum....

MORE IS MORE

Erin Nicole said...

omg those are effing amazing and yes they do look epic. i would be toppling over after about 2 steps.

etoilee8 said...

Why do you have the ability to wear something I formally disliked in such a way that makes me consider buying it? But I just don't think I could ever pull them off. EVER.

what bra are u wearinggG?

lulu said...

Anon 4:22: I'm wearing the Elle McPherson Notorious black lace triangle bra. It's seriously my favorite bra ever.

lucie said...

so perfect!!they are amazing!

Ivy said...

I've seen a couple of other bloggers wear these and I can honestly and safely say, you rock them the best. It's as if these were made for you, amazing.

Champagne said...

I think the smart way to get the shoes would to be in the store to get them. The $15 dollar shipping is just not to my liking and since I can get 10% off with my student id, its ideal.

UNordinaryCHIC said...

ahh, this outfit is the best! i can't wait to get ahold of those fabulous shoes!!
