An almost unbelievable transformation

From tired and cranky New Yorker to 1920s bohemian party girl on the beach!

Before:

• jeans: Arden B
• top: Kookai
• cardi: Stenstroms
• sneakers: Champion
• sunglasses: Ann Taylor
• bag: Kate Spade

After:

• all vintage.... linen harem pants, beaded silk blouse, men's brogues, crochet beret, costume jewelry - most fun outfit I've worn for work in a very long time! Wish I could have kept the clothes! :)

Thank God for empire dresses...

Feeling super fat and bloated after having done three long days/nights on set with no sleep and nothing to eat but junk (yeah, you can only have so much fruit and veggies before you want something "real" and then you're stuck with all the stuff that is loaded with fat, sugar or sodium... ugh). Betsey Johnson to your rescue!!!

• empire dress: Betsey Johnson
• butterfly necklace: Mandee
• silk floral earrings: Pilgrim
• tote & shades: Coach
• shoes: fitflops (I have a 4 hour walk coming up, so I don't really have a choice!)

Happy Sunday, everyone. :)

Before and after

On the left: half asleep on my way out 6AM-ish yesterday...

• denim shorts: Miss Me
• top: Theory
• hoodie: Balettakademien
  
• slippers: Aldo
• bag: Longchamp

On the right: after the hair/wardrobe/makeup transformation at work.

• vintage, vintage, vintage

And I get to do it all over again today.... thank God I was not born 100 years ago, 'cause the 1920's look is really not very flattering on me.

Last day on Damages before summer

In other words, spending this beautiful day indoors. :(

• dress: gift from a designer, I think it's Uzi
• belt: Forever 21
• ballerina flats: Delia's
• bag: Furla
• shades: Coach
  
• earrings & necklace: gray pearls... what else?

One of those days

Studying voice over copy, juggling phone calls, trying out new recipes, selecting images from a test shoot, preparing for an audition... no reason to dress up today.

• shorts: Delia's
• top: Nanette Lepore
• necklace: Urban Outfitters
• bracelet: Snoe of Scandinavia
• earrings: diamond studs, got them as a gift way back
  
• bag & sunglasses: Coach
• shoes: golden fitflops

Also, I'm propped up with the latest Hollywood Reporter and my puppy Angel. I feel sorry for everyone who has to wear a suit today - it's 70ish in New York. :)

Castings on a Saturday...

... not sure how I feel about that.

• romper: Diane von Furstenberg
• belt: Filippa K
• heels: ShoeDazzle
• bangles: street vendor stuff
• necklace: A Bit Of Whimsy by Jillian Matney... I blogged about it here way back!
• bag: Coach

Oh, and that's my puppy in the background. :D

On- and off-duty

On the right: 6AM earlier today, on my way to my part time TV job. Refusing to wear a suit, as usual...

• dress: my very first LBD that I bought as a teenager at a small boutique back home... it's still looking pretty good! :)
• belt: Charlotte Russe
  
• heels: Steve Madden (I wisened up and changed into ballerina flats right after I took the picture - don't want the sound guy to hate me)
• pearl necklace: high school graduation gift from my parents
• pearl earrings: gift from my Mom
• bag: Kate Spade
• sunglasses: Coach
  

And on the left: later at night, on my way out to enjoy the evening with the boyfriend and our puppy.

• jeans: Arden B
• top: Filippa K
• sneakers: Champion - got to keep them after a runway show that I did... I'm aware that sneakers are frowned upon by fashion editors and their entourage, but guess how much I care? They're perfect for the doggie park. :)
  
• bag: same chain strap tote from Kate Spade that I used earlier in the day!

Also, I lost the pearl necklace but kept the earrings. Why not, right?
