American Vintage

28 Comments Edit

Awhile back (in the time known as pre-hair cut), I took these pictures. Karen Elson collaborated with Nine West for a collection of vintage-inspired shoes and accessories. They sent me a pair of shoes and I was pleasantly surprised to open the box and see a dreamy pair of wedges that were so perfect in so many ways. In addition to being pretty Karen Elson's collection supports Soles4Souls and starting tomorrow Nine West will donate $1 to charity for every new Facebook fan. Tonight Karen Elson is performing live and I'm so excited to be in New York for it--I definitely have her CD and love her sound.

    WoW!!!! You look absolutely sublime. I liked your long hair (what have you done :)), you were like a pre-raphaelite muse, but this bob looks nice in you too.

    PS: Incidentally, have these shoes too ;)

    Those shoes are spectacular, and look so great with your long hair (though I do love your awesome bob now). Hope you're having a great time at NYFW! :)

    I'm so jealous that you get to see Karen Elson perform live. I have her album as well and have never been able to stop listening to it since I bought it. Love these shoes!

    Hahaha, the "pre-cut" era was a fabulous one, don't you agree...although the post-cut one has much potential!

    Just joking, I love your haircut.
    But those shoes, to die for...you were right, they are perfect in everyway. I honestly didn't know who Karen Elson was before I read your post, but I'm listening to her right now and she's great. I'm so jealous of you!

    Love the fall colors! I actually especially like the last picture, with the black hat, black dress, and the shoes adding a pop of color.

    @J, it's not "a while" b/c "a while" is only used when "while" is the object of a prepositional phrase (which was not present in that sentence, making "awhile" the correct word to use).
    It is collaborate though--I don't have an editor and quite often make mistakes. I certainly don't mind being (politely) corrected
