velvet underground



Similar to half the universe, I really love a lot of what Alexa Chung wears. I try not to reblog much of this type of thing simply because a million others do it better than me, but those velvet shorts (part of her amazing collection for Madewell) are too good for words. It saddens me that such fabrics all but disappear in warm weather, though perhaps these floral booties could remedy that.

Girl, I'm glad you turned the comments on so I could drop in and say I've been following you...in the internet way, not the menacing footsteps-at-night way, obvi. So hi!

Also, let me know if you're up for exchanging some mail like old times. I have some sweet stationery and no reason to use it! xx

You're right, these shorts are perfect for them summer. It's hard to get velvet right but she did an amazing job.
