Sweet Panelling


This is what I wore last night to see some friends' show.
Like the new backdrop? I like to think it's a little Calvin Klein creepy 1995 jeans campaign, you know? BB inherited his grandmother's house, and I'm going to be moving in with him over there (shacking up!) for a while to help him renovate.

  • Collectioneighteen babydoll dress made with glittery fabric
  • Custom candy glitter pendant made by Stoopidgerl (who is about to have a baby!)
  • Purple thigh high stockings and garter belt layered over black tights - I got the idea for this more demure way of wearing garter belts from LadyLike. I love it! SO genius yet so simple.
  • 80%20 Penny in blue - On sale (56% off!) at Karmaloop and running out of sizes. :o
  • The super adorable and talented Ms. Constantine made me think maybe I should do a Q & A post since I have always tended to be so reserved about my personal life.

    Is anyone else interested? I think I'll do one soon.

    I found my garter belt for cheap on eBay. Check out these listings!

    3. If we say we’re interested in the Q&A post, does that make us sound like stalkers? Like what if we say we’re very interested? How about then?

      Perfect outfit for the candy necklace. And yes, that paneling TOTALLY makes me think of the Calvin Klein campaign. And rock ON that you and the boy are getting a house! Houses are fun. They’re a ton of work, but definitely fun.

    4. I love your layered tights! I think I might try to pull that off sometime.

    5. I love the new backdrop.

    6. thats such a great way to wear thigh high stockings… i hadnt thought of layering them like that … which was a deterrent because i really don’t like strange drafts…
      ;)

    7. this is a very cool idea, it hink i’m gonna try it, even though i’ve never tried actually wearing a garter out. should be interesting to see what i pull off.

      You look great :)

      Meho xx

    8. Oh hey, new backdrop. Haha. Love it, actually. But perhaps a higher place to prop the camera?

      Miss Sofia – Try it!

      Rowena – Thanks! Very retro, huh?

      jennine – I hadn’t thought of it either! It’s one of those, “Why didn’t I think of that?!” kinds of things.

      Meho – Do it!

      Meream – You’re probably right. I was improvising at the time. :)

    16. Hey Annie!

      I love the purple stockings, purple is my favorite color and stockings always make things wonderful. Also, I like the change in background. If you’re worried about it being too creepy, you could hang up a back drop, wall mural or something.

      Keep smiling,
      Julia Luckett

      p.s. congrats about your beau!

    17. I love that you manage to be quirky, but still chic
      that is definitely your forte
      PS congrats about moving in with your man!! Big step but worth it

    18. That necklace is great Annie, your legwear is awesome =)

    19. LOVE the panelling – it’s very CK circa 1995 as you have said, only with an awesome Annie Spandex twist!

      And YUSS!!! I think a Q & A Post would be awesome.

      Xx

    20. Thanks, everyone!!! And I just now posted the Q&A! :)

      chloe – Possibly.. I hadn’t thought of that!

      Julia – I’ve thought about getting a muslin backdrop, but I’m afraid it would be too clinical-looking, know what I mean?

      Dana – Thank you so much!

    21. I like your dress and I adore the necklace.

    22. Argh, your kitchen disappeared !

    23. oh man i want garters now! i dunno why i never thought to wear them over black tights…i’ve always wanted garters but thought they might be too flashy in a costume type of way. but you have pulled this off perfectly.

    24. Lovely layering. I love all the lace and those wonderful boots!

    25. whoa your tights are totally hot!!! and your necklace is awesome, it must feels nice to have your name stick to a necklace :D must-have jewelry ;)
