Turqoise formal

I bought this dress in Once, at a Hippies-R-Us. Well, not really, but it did sell a lot of unflattering peasant shirts. The woman who sold me the dress was nice, but very dumb. She praised the dress, but was shocked that people in the United States speak English. She also thought I was a native Spanish speaker, from Columbia, until I told her otherwise. She asked me ridiculous questions, unashamed by her lack of knowledge- if I was scared of flying on planes, if I had a boyfriend, etc. But I guess it doesn't take much brains to help someone pick out a beautiful dress.

Winter Coat


Coat: vintage
Dress: vintage

It had gotten really nice in Buenos Aires in the last few days, but today it started to hail! Chunks of ice the size of quarters fell from the sky. I was at the Feria de Mataderos where I bought a llama hair wrap. It was probably way overpriced, but is so warm and beautiful. Pictures to come.

Pipi Cucu!


Bought a futuristic stewardess-like dress at Pipi Cucu la tiendita (Defensa 975) -- officially the CUTEST store name of all time. The store that carries only local designers with really wacky designs. The fabric is a bit sketchy (Argentine, so sort of shitty) but the dress is tight as a glove and shows every curve of my body. And the top has collar that rises in the back, but has a really low cut.
