I finally relented and made a Facebook page for FrouFrouu. You can still be my friend here, but I'm going to be updating the page with extra tidbits on a more frequent basis (hoping that having it in writing will force me to follow this notion through). If there's anything you'd like to see more of, just drop me a line there and I'll try to accommodate your requests in future posts.

Sphynx return

I want to spend this weekend stomping around new towns with my feet clad in these men's cuban heeled boots and a white smock dress floating around me. Sort of craving musty smelling claustrophic spaces into which I can disappear for a few hours and emerge with an armful of novel finds. 

Get the boots here and the dress here and tell me where you'd wear my getup of choice.

Workmen's wages

My pearl of wisdom for today: bring a little Stylestalker into your summer. It's a bit difficult to see in these images but this shirt is actually touched by the softest of sky prints. Pre-order here. 

Shirt: Stylestalker

Jeans: ASOS

Athletic shrug

One for the covet-shelf. Reminds me of something edible, something to do with carrots and chocolate. I can see it perched atop Marianna's head too:

Grab one for your own head/ tastebuds here.

The fruits of Salvation Army - more maternitywear. The weighty midnight velvet swirls like a thunderous sky as I walk. Probably all I ever wanted in a dress (minus pockets).  

Hat: Market HQ

Dress: thrifted

Boots: vintage Wrangler

Girdled round

A slightly blanched yet opulent room, weeping with angels, baroque trimmings, held together by expanses of neverending reflections. 4 bloggers sit on the floor, laughing beneath feigned sobriety. This, friends, is a bathroom and we are your hosts for this post.

The bloggers gracing the images are no other than:

Chantal - a tornado of fairies packed into one petite person

http://www.mypreciousconfessions.blogspot.com

Oliva - a flurry of bewitchment in both style and character

http://www.fashionsalade.com/lusttforlife

Ilanka - of elegant, clean silhouettes and willowy figure fame

I recently caught wind of this rather neat vintage store. I'm flirting with pretty much all their stock and hoping my wiles will somehow transport the entire store into my wardrobe. 

As readers of FrouFrouu, you have a head start. Thrifted and Modern have kindly offered a 15% discount to all of you by using the discount code FROUFROU15 at checkout. This is valid until 21st July so hotstep over.

Dulcet tones

Olivia, Ilanka, Chantal and I. Playtime in the early hours at the Waldorf Astoria. The epilogue to another adventure elsewhere in the booming depths of this decadent cavern. Adrenaline keeps us up. Familiarity keeps us ready for the next click. We keep each other cavorting.

Tree time

My 4th July was spent galavanting around Brooklyn with Gemma from FadetoblackNY and other NY homies - BBQs, tattoos (not for me), sprinkler fun, blue tortilla chips, pavement parties, burgers, teddy bear picnics, beautiful rooftops, grape flavoured 5 hour energy drinks and park lounging. I felt the pride.

What mischief did you get upto?
