La Lista last nights distant memory

miraflores, Peru update

essential and not so essential yet neccesary considerations.

late nights- boots are better disco options becuase you can actually stand in them and are much easier for displaying copious amounts of excitment when there is a break in the trance playlist with some daftpunk, and one needs to eagerly show one´s affection by dancing, perhaps a little too enthusiastically. opt for comfy& low heeled

early mornings- hats will hide anything, almost. and smudging last nights eyeliner into a less harsh version of the smokey eye is fast, easy, and affective.

also im obsessed with sunglasses and hats paired...thus hiding the exaustion pre soy latte intake.

its been made abundantly clear that scarves are litteraly life savers. they add warmth, a shade of sophistication, however faux it may be and can multitask as a light blanket when your trying to hang out in the park and peru´s daily late afternoon cloud cover takes over.

newly into large earrings of the extrememly simple variety, thin gold hoops that dont scream j.lo and round danglys in neutral shades. you dont want to look like you´re actually on your way home from last night, more of a conquering of your current state.

layers
scarves- black. white. nude
hats- as un k.fed like a fedora that you can find
big sun glasses but nothing too flashy, more street wear and less cover my botox treatment.

epic fail and yet so it begins

So the respite is over and im feeling like this will perhaps be easier from afuera del pais. perhaps more time and more to look at. travelcore tìps thus far: South A.

over the shoulder bags
scarves add elegance
layers are key
nueutrals can mix and match
adding in:
big gold earrings
off white sneakers
red lips
flat boots to go out in- better to run from robberistas
always cuff sleeves on tshirts
hats hats hats!....think incan embroidery

pictures are questionable for now

The List: Rainbow Colada

So I know what you're thinking. Phrases like rainbow bright and liquid skittles have already been thrown around. But really if you take away the painfully orange glow emanating from her skin and focus on how the black band creates a seriously picante silhouette you gotta sort of support whats being done here.

The List: New Suiting

Adventures in bathingland. New takes on the onepiece are popping up all over the place. Once relegated simply to LLBean bag-toting soccer moms- the runway, the musicfest and the beach are sporting spicy modifications on this now cool classic. So leave your swim cap and goggles at home and let the sun shine on your lame/nauticalprint/crochet.
