Lady on the outside....
I just love the detail on this vintage coat I found at The Sentimentalist. It is similar to the coat I'm wearing here in that it's black and it has fur trim, but the shape and details are different (this is me, trying to justify having two vintage black wool, fur-trimmed coats in my closet)
Remove the coat, and "Voila" - Rock and Roll girl on the inside! I am so hopeless at "Badass Chick" expressions
I'm much better at my superhero pose

Hope you all have a great weekend. I'm going to a Burlesque show tomorrow night if this cold I think I'm getting doesn't knock me out!

GASP! Gorgeous coat!! And love the fun inside-outside theme! xoxo Lynn
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite songs! Such a beautiful coat (TOTALLY different from your other one), you are definitely a superhero and a badass chick all together with that ladylike exterior, my friend. Fingers crossed that you will avert the cold!
ReplyDeleteOh what a wonderful coat!! And I'm coveting the VU tee...
ReplyDeleteIs there such thing as "approachable bad ass rocker chick?" Cause you have that one down! Cool t-shirt! I'm a Nico fan. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe detail on the coat is so cool! And then the unveiling...
ReplyDeleteIs that a banana on your shirt, or are you just happy to see me? :)
I don't think you need an excuse to have several vintage coats! As many as you can afford and also fit in your closet would be the only limits I could imagine. Such lovely detail on the button swags!
ReplyDeleteThe coats are similar... lolzzzz It totally looks cold there so you probably need a lot of coats. I am digging your outfit and bad@ss posing :)
ReplyDeleteWell, my attitude is, a gal (especially when living through a Canadian winter) can't have too many vintage coats! This ones gorg, Shelly, I love the shape, collar and lovely detailing at the back. Hope you get out to the show and have a fab weekend!
ReplyDeleteOops, Shelley, misspelled your name as I'm typing too fast! :)
ReplyDeleteLove your coat and that amazing tee shirt. So cool.
ReplyDeleteWonderful coat, you needed it.
ReplyDeletewowowowoow! I love that coat, it's so beautiful, love that clasp detail. But I could see there was something more edgy lurking when I spotted the Converse. And you look great, so cool. That coat is amazing. Love the t-shirt too xxx
ReplyDeleteHolymoly! I thought I loved the first look (femme vintage overcoat-furtrimmed with the high tops) then I saw the underpeelings; LOOOOOOOVVVVEEEE! I can't speak any Engwish I love it so much. What a great look- rock and roll and awesome in all your glorious glory!
ReplyDeleteWonderful jacket, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Love at first sight.
ReplyDeleteI love how you play everything down with your shoes.
Happy weekend, gorgeou.

Obviously you don't need to justify ANY vintage coat buying to me, Shelley, I completely understand the love affair with fabulous well made outerwear!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the contrast between ladylike 50s elegance and the rock chick revealed underneath! That little jacket is wonderful and t-shirt (and song) are great.
Hope the developing cold doesn't get in the way of your burlesque fun this weekend! xxxxx
Hello dear!
ReplyDeleteNice blog you have!
I think we should follow each other!
What do you say ? Kisses . Muuuuah
Love the leather coat with the tee. Great outfit altogether!
ReplyDeleteLove all the pieces, especially the little '80s leather!
ReplyDeleteLove all the pieces, especially the little '80s leather!
ReplyDeleteActually the jacket is just good ol 80's polyester, not leather, but it does look like it in the photo
DeleteThe coat is wonderful and that tee is just wonderful, great, great finds Shelley!
ReplyDeletehey shelley.....great coat, cool blog....long time no see!
ReplyDeleteOf course you need two black coats with fur trim! How could you live without that gorgeous detail? Great outfit on the inside too. Especially with your playful expressions and the jacket to 'live' for.
ReplyDeleteLove the coat and the jacket!
ReplyDeleteOh it's just darling..the whole look. And your hair is really cool, I love the style. You are so hipster yet retro casual. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteWow! Thanks for sharing this fashionable post your outfit is amazing looking gorgeous. I always love to wear celebrity leather jackets at the time bike riding.
