a little miu miu inspiration

what started out as a funky pair of bell bottom, capris from another era....turned out to be my new favorite pair of high waisted shorts.
a little shocked to find these babies in a usually overpriced vintage shop in downtown hb. i picked them up for $14...a new zipper and hem job later..voila!! i made a snood with the rest of the material from the legs...look out for it in future post.
enjoy!

you should have seen the line of girls following me around crossroads in la.....waiting for me to put these thrifted dolce vita clog-ish shoes down for their picking. no such luck my friends, sorry. $20 later i was out the door with a grin on my face. i felt that the shorts and shoes were destined to be together!

the shorts reminded me of miu miu spring 10
