Walking around the West Village with Jennine! (a big thank you to Jennine for taking my outfit photo).
Last Friday, Jennine and I decided to spend some quality time (and much needed relaxation!) walking around the West Village before she left the city. We had a great lunch at Morandi talking about all things Internet related. Then we walked around Bleecker and Christopher Street and did some shopping.
We oogled jewelry at Sucre & Albertine General, tried on various garments at Cynthia Rowley, and Jennine ate her first-ever Magnolia cupcake. YUM! We mostly behaved, but I did end up getting a pair of vintage malachite earrings and a 50s clear lucite bracelet at Albertine General. There was too much temptation there for me to resist! I justified it by having a matching malachite ring and knowing that clear accessories are the thing to have right now...
After that, we stopped by Aedes de Venustas, my favorite perfume store ever, were Jennine helped me narrow down my perfume choice to 1, after many months of deliberation (I'm very picky about perfume). More on the choice later...
Here's what I wore:
Turban, vintage from Patricia H. via the Manhattan Vintage Show
Cropped trapeze shirt, vintage from Lorry Polizzi via the Manhattan Vintage Show
Lace bodysuit, TopShop (bought due to regret of selling this vintage one!)
Pleated pants, vintage, thrifted
Booties, Marc by Marc Jacobs about millions of years old (at least 4).
Jennine had a fabulous outfit on - of course. Take a closer look on her blog.
For all of you pining after her overized vintage tapestry bag, I have a surprise for you... Stay tuned!!!
Magnolia cupcakes - yum! And they have rainbow sprinkles!
