the suburbs





Wearing: Topshop kimono, BCBG Max Azria dress, and Jeffrey Campbell Lita's

Sorry sorry sorry for wearing my Lita's too often, I love them too much to ever take them off.
I love the chiffon overload in this outfit. It gives it such a Spring vibe and the Lita's are so heavy that they tone it down to make it that perfect in between seasons outfit.




To get the look just click on the photos below!
 

I never thought that this song had related to growing up in an army base but now that I've seen the music video and have looked/listened with a different perspective I love it even more than I did before. 
Spike Jonze directed this which explains its awesomeness.

I LOVE THE SUBURBS ALBUM. By far better than anything Arcade Fire has ever done. So different too. I was so happy that they won Album of the year at the grammys. I havent seen the short film by mike jonez yet but I really want to. Anyway enough of crazy music rosy...I love this dress! I love the floral detailing...so beautiful.
