On Saturday last I updated my twitter status with "Venturing into the terrain of double denim for the first time today. Using Sissy Spacek in Badlands as my sartorial defense." Well I survived and I think I liked it. What say you?
I bought these socks on sale in Tabio when I was in London and was desperate to show them off but was at a loss as to what to pair them with. I needed something neutral so they would the standout feature of the outfit. So I denim'd it up.
Sissy Spacek working the lone ranger look in Malick's Badlands (1973) alongside Martin Sheen.
A day that began with me intending to buy toothpaste and impulsively buying orange nail polish instead, being late and losing a friend in a gallery, going in search of non existent cafés ended up with an impromptu The Babies gig at the Captains Rest and by the time I got home in the wee hours this shirt smelt of beer and sambuca after a night out on the dance floor at Nice n Sleazy.
I love it with those socks, they are amazing.
ReplyDeletei love this! your hair looks so awesome :)
ReplyDeleteZoe! You look amazing!! I love this!
ReplyDeleteI wear double denim at least 3 times a week. rock it man its a good look.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't a look that was great the first time around and I was disappointed that it came back instead of sat Adam ant make up which was much more 80's fun but the dark n light here are not as upsetting as some of the ensembles you see on South William Street. The high Pony tail with the bow is a good look for you.
ReplyDeleteDouble denim is great when you wear it the way you have! xxx
ReplyDeleteLove the denim mix!
ReplyDeleteThis is super cute. Is your headband also denim?
ReplyDeleteI think the socks definitely made the outfit haha (:

That sounds like a winner of a day! How fun! Around here we call double denim "the Denim Tuxedo" in a tongue and cheek way!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, my canadian friend calls double denim The Canadian Tux! And she rocks it. It must be in their genes (or jeans? lol)
