Being Julia

Rachel Antonoff 'Julia' dress & vintage jewelry throughout. Mandy Coon 'Ginny' Bunny bag. Chanel shoes.
Rachel Antonoff's 'Julia' dress is a carnation confection, sprinkled with rainbow tweed in mod Minnie Mouse proportions - the most sumptuous material. My Mandy Coon 'Ginny' Bunny bag is never far away. Plus a little Chanel love in the form of lavender leather ballet flats leaves me lusting for the matching quilted mini-purse.COWBOY LOVER: The Reformation 'Barrow' blouse.
Rachel Antonoff dress styled several ways... 1960s schoolgirl in a shirt under the shift. My silk button-down blouse, embellished with silver collar tips, is culled from vintage garments - sartorial recycling. I never met a tweedy biddy I didn't like: elegant creatures cloaked in classic pastel suits are eminently worthy of emulation.
TWEEDLEDUM & TWEEDLEDEE: Alexa Chung for Madewell 'Ruby' cardi.
Soulmates: my prim & proper creamy cardi trimmed in licorice is the perfect companion to this serious tweed shift. Spotted my dress in the important Sep 2011 issue of InStyle. Rachel Antonoff (shop HERE) & I share an angelically sweet aesthetic, spiced with surprises (such as a ♥heart♥ button) for nostalgic modern girls.
