a not-a-self-portrait portrait in Chanel


I got this vintage Chanel top from The Dressing Room on the Lower East Side. Despite my determination to shop less, my friend Niko set it aside for me when it came in and who was I to turn down Chanel? (if you are insane like me and study photos to see if they are photoshopped this one was not. It’s something weird with the shutter that makes my upper arm look oddly thin…not photoshop!)

While I love the sheerness and the pattern I never thought of myself as a “ruffles” sort of girl and there is a slight ruffle on the sleeve…but I love the overall design enough to work with it. Of course for this shoot I had to wear pearls!

    B. E. A. UTIFUL!

    I think the fact it's sleeveless and has a pocket "tough"-s it up nicely.

    Can't believe you have people who hold amazing vintage finds back for you. AMAZING. (Jealous!)
