Hope Ammen
A lot of rich people spend a lot of money on a lot of ugly things. Now if f I was a millionaire, I think I would buy only beautiful things. I am not a millionaire. However, there is a satisfaction in simply finding beautiful things. It's nearly as fun as having them. Just less expensive. So rather than filling my shopping cart with all these beautiful things, I will simply put them in Her Octopus Garden.

FAUX FUR
Monday, December 13, 2010

...don't tell me it's not a good idea.

Because when I went into Bebe and tried this baby on, I fell in love.


I think I would wear it with everything. It's bold, but honestly, I think it pairs nicely with just about anything. Add it over a tshirt and jeans for some texture, layer it over a dress with a belt and some boots. I think it's warm, inviting, glamorous, and edgy.

Yes, I would wear it every day.

Cheaper version, Forever21 vest. And at the risk of sounding like a diva, when I tried this on it looked waaaay better then it does in the picture. Ew. Ha. Ok, that did sound kind of bratty. But it's true. I didn't look like a cowgirl, I looked like a rock star.




Which is why I now want a vest. A white, faux fur vest.
I'm going to make it a good idea.
So don't judge.
