LOOKS AND BOOTS TO LURV

BLACK AND WHITE AND BLACK AND WHITE

(BLACK AND WHITE AND BLACK AND WHITE by natalieoffduty featuring: Isabel Marant varsity jacket, American Vintage tee, Current Elliot boyfriend jeans, “Natalie + Dylana Suarez x MODERN VICE” JETT boots, Dr. Jart+ cleansing foam, Diptyque candle)

THE BLACK AND WHITE AND BLACK AND WHITE:

I mean who doesn’t love this extremely fresh palette. I’ve been so inspired by it lately…that we even took our classic “Natalie + Dylana Suarez x Modern Vice” JETT boot, and turned it inside OUT. Contrasting the buckles to the kiltie…and creating this total lust-worthy of a boot. With a rolled up denim jean, scooped white tee, and baseball jacket, you just ooze cool. Sometimes I wish life were a black and white 80’s movie.


FLY LIKE AN EAGLE

(FLY LIKE AN EAGLE by natalieoffduty featuring: Vintage sunglasses and tee, Zara Denim shirt, LOWLUV by Erin Wasson cuff and earrings, BLK DNM jeans, Acne jacket, Modern Vice “Handler” snake boots)

FLY LIKE AN EAGE:

Yes, there are many, many mornings that I turn up my stereo and am suddenly dancing around my apartment and singing, being the rockstar I’ve had in my head the entire time I was sleeping. This is what she looks like. A rock tee, the tightest, highest waist denim jean, an embroidered denim shirt around the waist…oh, and SNAKE BOOTS. Have you seen such beauties? Mine are freshly handmade right now in my boyfriend’s factory…and I especially ordered these blue beauties. A little NYFW surprise from the cute BF. 
STEP INTO FALL

(STEP INTO FALL by natalieoffduty featuring: RVCA hat, Marni sunglasses, Isabel Marant skirt, Balenciaga shearling coat, Modern Vice “FRANKIE” boots, Vanessa Mooney jewelry: ring)

STEP INTO FALL:

Yes, I know it seems super duper early to be looking at that amazing Balenciaga shearling coat, but you just wait and see…you girlies are gonna wish you had something to snuggle up to. Here’s a little look I created thinking of the one and only, PENNY LANE. Always smiling and looking through life in rose-colored sunglasses. The studded skirt is just one thing to shimmy on stage and into the night in. Vanessa Mooney jewels layered and layered over and over again. (I finally met this amazing woman yesterday at the beach, and OMG, I LOVE HER!) So here’s to her…and some killer monk-strap booties. My sister and I were discussing how we wanted to lace-up our JETTS. With a higher heel and a gorgeous badass monkstrap…meet the FRANKIE. A shoe for a dream.

KISS THE SKY

(Wasteland flared pants, Morning Warrior tee, Wildfox Couture sunglasses, Jenny Bird earrings and handbag and serpent cuff, Modern Vice “carly” boots, The 2 Bandits cuffs (similar)
Who doesn’t love a good pair of flare?! This one is covered in a sheer paislee print and I’m addicted….oh, and actually long enough for my height. Wasteland, you did me good. Shot by my sister in Brooklyn, she always makes me feel a bit more like a rockstar…her being a total hippie herself. I love you Dy and I miss you! I’ve been seriously getting into earrings lately. These were handed to me from the lovely Jenny Bird, and I cannot take them off. Sadly, I’ve left them in my apartment back in NYC. Right now, I just had sit-down home-made breakfast in my family’s LA abode…filled with fresh raspberry pancakes and coffee. The sun completely brightening up our family room. I love being home, even if it’s just for this super short while. The heat here is killing me though!! I’m going to be off to Venice for a shoot later this evening, and I’m pretty excited to prance around the beach in nothin’ but swimmy’s and woven hats! Stay tuned on what’s goin’ on here in LA LA LAAAAND! I’m ready to just be a beach bum tomorrow with all my LA women. x

A MUSIC NOTE

(Karen London silver ring, Vanessa Mooney necklace/cuff/rings, Free People clothing, Stance socks, RAEN sunglasses)
Just a few more notes from NYC, shot by Emma Jane Kempley. I’m back in LA for work and though I’ve already gone from LA down to San Diego, and BACK to LA late last night, I’m already wide away at 6:30, ready for my next adventure. Here’s more of my lovely Jordan, being all cuddly in bed, serenading and strumming our ol’ Martin…and me, plopped on my big pink couch with a big fat issue of PURPLE FASHION. Today’s a morning I’m missing the normal-ness of my everyday NYC life. Right now, my sleep schedule is still a bit off. Anyways, Emma is amazing and I loved her young spirit in capturing photos. After our morning shoot, we went for 2 good milkshakes for lunch in the Lower East Side. Like two kids in the corner booth. I wish I had more to write, but I literally have to hop in the car in about 10 minutes.

SHE WILL BE LOVED

(Wildfox Couture daisy sweater and “LOVED” dress, H&M hat, Nasty Gal shoes, Jenny Bird netted bucket bag (similar)
Oh, we all just wanna be LOVED!! Covered in daisies and some bright pink lips, I am so ready for LA! Wildfox, I absolutely love you and your cheeky prints! Yep, bright and early tomorrow morning I am off to the homeland then down, down to San Diego. The ocean breeze, skimpy bikinis, and late nights on the beach curled in an oversize sweatshirt. Oh, and with just a little bit of work sprinkled on top. I need some California sun pronto! The mum and pops are going to be so darn happy we get to hang out, just like old times. When they’d accompany me on castings, every job…well, until I grew up to drive and rebel to do everything else on my own. Now…grown up, I want them around because I rarely get to see them and live on the opposite side of the country. Sometimes you just wanna be loved like a child from your mummy and poppy hehe! I’m just so ready for a home-cooked Malaysian meal. Here I’m shot on my NYC roof, acting silly with Dylana and Kelsea…flashing everyone my all-time favorite dress. Here’s to sunshine, California girls, and coooool adventures.
