Eliza Starbuck, Day 26
Tom Girl
I really wanted to wear this silk taffeta dress that was sitting in the back of my closet for so long, another Miu Miu sample sale catch. I just love anything fuchsia.
I loved it’s pretty, exaggerated, empire bell shape, and it made my little black dress do the same when I added a scarf as a sash. The gold medallion, a gift from my grandmother, fit so perfectly in the neckline.
Only problem, too pretty, not me. Downright prissy. I was starting to feel like a J.Crew wedding catalogue. So I had to eff it up somehow, make it cool.
I took this fedora I had found in a boutique in the Lower East Side, and put it on backwards. Now we’re getting somewhere.
And to finish the whole look off I put on these funky sneaker sandals I had gotten in a really odd shoe store in Soho, I cannot remember the name, which was equally weird. All the shoes in the shop were totally bizarre, but somehow this pair caught my eye. And now I’m a tom boy ready to party.
