Prince charming

Alexander Wang dress, drug store tights, YSL Tribute pumps, vintage leopard coat

I bought this dress so long ago I almost forgot to take any pictures of it for the blog. Tobi was nice enough to provide me with a generous discount. And once again, the bf was nice enough to take pictures. Thanks honey!

Speaking of dresses, my friend Maleeha wrote about Erdem's recent S/S collection here. She pretty much summed up everything I would have said about it. I must be having a girly moment... JUST GORGEOUS.

Did I mention I got a home loan the other day? I'm buying my first house.

Aw, thanks for the link, Lulu. Congrats on your first house! Sadly, I will be an indentured servant to my landlord til the day I die. Where are you moving?

Your pictures. They look like Rumi's. Stop that, it's boring.

I guess I'm not the only one that has noticed this... Why do you look so much like Rumi? I mean, the outfits, the hair color, the facial expressions and even the poses on the pictures... You are a pretty and stylish girl, I think you could make the effort to just be yourself.

stephanie said...

lulu you kick ass.

lisa said...

I wasn't aware that taking a photo in focus in proper light was copyrighted. Next time I'll try really hard to go out of my way to prove that I am my own person. Because that's what matters. Being the only person on the internet to do any one thing or like any one thing.

josephine said...

I love your silver!!

josephine said...

&& congrats on the home loan!!!! good luck!

The Stylish Wanderer said...

i disagree completely with the anonymous people. just saying. they just want to hate. doesnt mean theyre reasonable, at all.

E+J said...

The dress is so simple that the shape of it does everything !
cute bracelets btw!

Sarah said...

Congrats on your home loan! (:

WJ said...

Congratulations on purchasing your own place! I know you are probably busy as shit, but you definitely need to update more...haha.

Ann Onimous said...

Rumi ass kissers, please get the fuck outta here.

Seriously. They go to every blog and leave comments on how every blogger copies fashiontoast and how she is "liek sooo THE trendsetter omg!"

Fashion On My Lips said...

You look great! And happy! :) Congrats on your first home! That's awesome!!

Chelsea said...

Omg, Lu, you are The Secks. And congrats on the house!

leesh said...

lulu you are so fucking cool. seriously. congratulations on the house! what an exciting step of life!

keep being the shit! xx

Emma said...

Hahaha... that Ann Onimous is 100% right. I love Rumi too; but she has the most annoying little minions who think that she is the fashion queeeen. I think you look fantastic in these photos Lulu; please keep letting Ray take these outdoor photos of you - they're great! xoxo.

JoanPKL said...

GAHH! I love it all. Your hair looks fierceee.

Congrats on your home loan. Oh man, you are a real grown up.
I think we're around the same age and I'm no where close....so props to you!

InnyVinny said...

Lulu, I'm officially appointing you my peer idol. Congrats.

elsalvador said...

Congrats on the home loan! You look incredible in all black especially with your new hair color. And, you know, fuck anonymous haters.

Valencia Lia said...

I love these by the pool photos ! A great place to have outfit photos taken :)

Still really loving all your accessories and congrats on buying your 1st house !! Way way awesome <3

susie miller said...

i am completely feeling this outfit right now. anything with leopard print is always a hit.

cant believe you are buying a house.

Pennerad said...

NICE.

CONGRATS ON THE HOUSE! i was on that wagon a few weeks ago, until i found out that fha loans don't apply to co-ops which are really the only things worth living in permanently in NYC.
either that or 'sketchier' portions of brooklyn/bronx/queens. and why on earth would i wanna put down roots in a hood i can't walk alone in?

Maeko said...

I love your hair colour so much I want to marry it and have kids.

Ashley said...

Congrats on first house purch! And I need a leopard print coat like yours!!!

Georgia said...

I forgot how much I love your hair blonde. Nice stacks of bracelets
It would be mine

Amy said...

haha the rumi things hilarious, especially since rumis hair is dark now, so lulu dying hers light now would imply she definitely doesn't want to look just like her :P

Christen said...

This look is killer. But I'm dying to see the leopard in the background :)

jeanie bean said...

i'm sick of the rumi shiz too! i mean maybe its just a case of similar minds think alike if people think someone is copying someone. geez.

keep on truckin' lulu. Also are you buying a home in the city? please say yes so that I can still have hope that people don't have to slave around for 30 years to afford a real home in SF. yay for home loans and black dresses all around!

Lina said...

People are weird. I've followed you sice you started EIU, and you're the only blog I've followed for such a long time. Simply because you have some kind of magic ability too see what will become trendy long before it even shows up on fashion shows or magazines, and because you style always seems to be in motion. Before I get the chance to become tired of your style, you always come up with something new and exiting and change it a bit.

VENNY said...

ignore them.
u look gorgeous and u are my no. 1 inspiration.
im asian too =)

MakiMaki Vintage said...

Congrats on the house! It is such an exciting and huge purchase, wayyyy better than any pair of shoes (i can't believe I'm saying this).

These photos are beautiful.

R said...

honestly..

LULU OVER RUMI, ANY DAY.

Krystal Simpson said...

thats so rad, congratulations! welcome to the world of hoe-owning! xo

oh lady e said...

YSL Tribs pretty much make every outfit... love them! And you look great with the all-black outfit, so a big 'fuck you' to anyone who tells you otherwise.

Emilie said...

Your Alexander Wang dress is gorgeous!

Intrinsically Florrie said...

Your hair's really gorgeous, the colours in it are beautiful.

Eva Silviana said...

aaaaaaaaah. you're cool! i love your shoes!

Don't Be A Hero said...

gawddamn I love the idea of light hair going into fall, don't know why anyone thinks the opposite is better.

too bad mine's already freaking platinum, no where to go but touchups :p

warholchic2 said...

haha i sorta got the rumi thing too, but your pictures always seem to have this haunting beauty to them that rumi's lacks. you're both really great tho!

congrats on the new house. must be so exciting. can't wait til that day comes for me!
