A little Deco

Just a little compilation of Art Deco buildings in Miami, Florida...
this lilac car needs to be parked permanently in front of the Colony Hotel...
love the porthole windows...
loving the lilac of the Starlite Hotel...
a splash of contrasting colour on the Cavalier Hotel...
the very lavender Hotel Shelley...
pale pastels of the Crescent and McAlpin hotels...
and at street level, the McAlpin...
the very angular Breakwater Hotel...
the sublime blues of the Park Central Hotel... 
tangerine dream, the Waldorf Towers hotel...
Delano Hotel, like something out of the film Metropolis... (to be updated!)

More mauve

 loving this pale mauve crushed velour velvet slip dress, perfect for Fall...
 has simple lines and seems to drape well...
 and underneath, a simple white tee...
topped off with this dusty powder pink / mauve wool blend winter coat...
 accessorized with this pale mauve / lilac quilted tote bag...
and these blush pink / nude jellies...
and these pretty pink mirror lens sunglasses...
and this LA Colors Chic Eyeshadow Palette...
and NYX Lip Lingerie Embellishment...

Thinking Halloween

the shops are already decorated with all things Halloween and I'm thinking sugar skulls, rather than just the usual skeletons, vampires and ghouls... This chic little  Dia de los Muertos / Day of the Dead wooden sign, apparently a foot long, in glittery silver, black and red caught my eye...
though this cardboard cutout is more colorful. If the reverse of the wooden sign is blank, I could paint something like this to get into the spirit of things...
And I didn't wanna overdo it with the kitsch of the season but I just couldn't resist this little 2 oz shot glass that could have multiple uses other than knocking back potent spirits - pun intended...

Celebrating Fall

 loving the richness of this bronze metallic pleated skirt for this Fall...
and on me it may be closer to calf-length...
though I also love this gossamer wing like semi-transparent metallic bronze pleated skirt...
makes me think of burnished autumnal leaves...
like leaves celebrating Fall!
and I would wear this patinaed copper floral necklace with it...
and this very autumnal Dog Dancer tee...
this Wet n Wild lipstick in Cashmere...
KleanColor Coffee Addict nailpolish...
definitely this pistachio cardigan / cardi...
maybe with this leopard top underneath...
black peeptoe booties...
looks great with a simple brown sweater / jumper...
so I would team it with this heather brown cardigan...
but this taupe glittery top is dressier...
Silky bronze quilted bomber jacket
this cocoa, black and ivory roses choker necklace...
this coffee duster coat...
khaki cateye sunglasses...
this tortoise shell link necklace...
snakeskin booties...
and even this leopard sweater / jumper...
this coral red roses necklace...
or even this photo-image floral top I fondly call my Warhol top, with matching headband and brooch
these Miista purple holographic shoes...
these metallic lilac pink mirror lens sunglasses...
these sakura pink converse sneakers
and for nails, perhaps Wet N Wild Who is Ultra Violet?
this LA Colors Chic Eyeshadow Palette...
and NYX Lip Lingerie in Embellishment...
