Psychedelic dress pictures

sparkly Lanvin dress.

A sparkly vintage Lanvin dress that I found in my great aunts basement. It was tucked away with tools!

First picture was taken with a guy in the far left hand corner peeing. Pretty grubby eh?

Second picture was taken in little india. No one looks at me.

I've got some guts..

It took a lot of nerve to take these photos. I got this dress as a gift from my mom to wear on Halloween but we were in Jersey City and I thought it would be cool to contrast my back ground and be a little political. The dress almost represents a time where there was a lot of racial unrest in America and there I am with many african american basketball players. Two worlds collide? I look out of place. Just what I was going for. 

I want. I want. I want.

The cutest shoes and pants. I have a strange obsession with black. I need to try out new colors, but still how amazing are these pieces. 

Accidental Genius

I didn't mean to make that funny

But it came out so fast I couldn't stop it.

Must be an accidental genius.

Yesterday, I slipped on gook on the lab floor

scattered all the chemicals everywhere.

Found a cure for cancer.

The other week I started talking and found myself writing it down.

After my thoughts were finished

I had a masterpiece.

Published in the times.

In art class a month ago I picked up some paint

Reds, greens, yellows, blues, and black.

Started splattering and slathering.

I'm sort of in the MOMA.

I guess i don't have an explanation

just a series of accidents

I don't know how to explain it.

Must be an accidental genius. 

Untitled

Are we supposed to live everyday to the fullest

the brightest

the best?

How do i make the mundane

spectacular?

I wonder if all of this is worth it

If it were to end

I don't think I would be happy with today.

I'm working towards the future

but slipping away from the present.

Isn't life too short to continue this cycle?

did you steal your grandma's sweater? ....Damn Straight.

I got this amazing crocheted cardigan from a rummage sale. Those are high waisted shorts from J-crew and some patent leather pumps. It was difficult moving around in the yard. At least the yard got aerated from my heels.

green green all around

"Bailey, You look like a hobo whore in those tights." Thanks mom.

Perhaps ripping types is not economically smart but it sure does look cool.

I wish I was as cool as James Dean.

Excuse- moi mais qu'est que tu fais?

Last year I lived in France for about six months and during that time I found the most amazing dresses. I was living with my great aunt in the south of France in a tiny village called Grambois. She lived in Paris during the sixties and was very into fashion. Lucky for me I was handed down two amazing Lanvin couture dresses that she had. One of them was tucked away in a drawer in her cellar with a bunch of tools. It was crazy. Anyways, here is one of them!

It was HOT HOT HOT up here

" We interrupt your reading to bring you this important news announcement. The heat beast has paid a visit to the north east and his wrath has caused all young females to rip off their denim and throw on dresses. Yes I repeat, the women on the street all ran into boutiques ravaging clothes racks everywhere. They all proceeded to strip at high noon. The sun beat down on their long flowing hair and they could not bear the thought of sweating. So, they decided to change right then and there. Some were asked to leave establishments due to the no shirt no service rule. Some were kicked out of taxi cabs as devout religious men could not bear to see their skin. Then at around twelve thirty, the chaos had ended. All women were fully clothed and the north east took in a deep breath of ease. Oh no, the breath has brought the cold."

 The weather was incredible in my neck of the woods these past two days. One day I was so hot that I called up my cousin and decided to go and swim. I learned how to do these amazing crunches in the water that make your stomach burn for at least 48 hours afterwards. It was such a nice day out that I decided to throw on this fun plaid shirt and this white wife beater dress and go take some pictures. Let me know what you think!

But above all things truth beareth away the victory

This was taken of me at Bryant Park. It is from the same day as the other picture, but I really love how this picture looks as if it were done by a pin hole camera. The vintage look and the color fade really add to the picture. Love to know what you think.

african dress

 This is an african dress that I picked up at a thrift store in upstate new york. It's supposed to be 90 degrees tomorrow so I thought I would go in the spirit of the weather.

The Rythm

I've wanted a place to be creative. I've been going crazy with junior year and now is finally a time when I really need to write about everything, fashion, politics, school, my life. Whatever. Here is a picture that I really like that I took in New York City.

Boots + blazer were thrifted. Jeans I bought so many years ago. 4 maybe?
