baby pop

France Gall is yet another of my favorite style icons who embodies everything I love about sixties girl style (previously featured: Tennessee Thomas, Marianne Faithfull). Her look was as dreamy as her music, which features prominently on my iPod. As Serge Gainsbourg's French pop protege France hit all the wardrobe high notes: baby doll dresses, bows, knee socks, and always the most perfect little black mary janes. Pay special attention to the ruffled polka dot frock below!

L'echo is one of my favorite songs of all time which you must give a listen for the piano alone. It makes me float away each and every time.

Though I admire many talented ladies who found fame during the sixities, Marianne Faithfull is my favorite beauty icon of all time. Aside from having the most beautiful profile ever (those lips!) and gorgeous hair which I would gladly trade at least two of my limbs for, her sixties pop starlet wardrobe was/is to die for. Honestly, I get envious just looking at these photos.

I've already mentioned my love for The Like's drummer Tennessee Thomas but have decided that she is definitely deserving of an entire post dedicated to her wardrobe. There is no one who gets it "right" more consistently in accordance with my style guidelines (see: delusions of looking like a 60's pop starlet), and she's a beautiful babe to boot. From now on whenever I'm tempted to trim my unruly locks (which have been unattended for longer than I'd like to admit in my attempt to grow them past my knees) I think I'll refer to the below:

new face

Upon experiencing the first whim of my entire life, I went and done got my septum pierced before Christmas. Also ended up with new glasses around that time after losing my beloved ray bans, which I never ever would have quit wearing had they not mysteriously evaporated (see: tumbled from purse unnoticed when I was intoxicated) at some point during the course of a night. The perspex frames are genuine vintage and have earned me more compliments than any other pair I've ever worn; wonder who on earth donned them before me!

I took these out of boredom awhile ago and look like such a ragamuffin tween in them (I think it's the hair), which was an age I remember most fondly...
