Wearing Kansai Yamamoto

I posted this amazing Kansai Yamamoto skirt I got off eBay a few months back...it is definitely time to show it some love again.

Worn today with Ann Demeulemeester lace-up sandal boots, an American Apparel sweatshirt, my new favorite vintage necklace, and an Antonio Palladino gold octopus ring.

This octopus ring is not mine! Mine is silver, my mom has one in gold. Sometimes we trade. I cannot reiterate enough how much pleasure it gives me to wear my favorite animal on my finger-- it's glistening jointed tentacles come to life with every twitch of my finger.

Can't get enough of these Ann D's!! I know, I know...I'll shut up about them.

Denise gets as excited about Ann Demeulemeester as I do. She was very animated today...she's always trying to get into my pictures.

and now I'm going to share some pictures of David Bowie wearing Kansai Yamamoto...

Here is a very short clip from one of his shows in 1971-very theatrical!

OMG that picture of Denise is hilarious and adorable! Love that you have every color in those Ann D sandals...wish I could see them in person here in Houston :(

OMGosh! ANOTHER pair of Ann D lace-up sandals?!? Amazing! :)

those shoes are amazing. $900 a pair though, jeeeez. i wish i had that kinda money. id probably blow it on these haha. OR the new Isabel Marant studded ankle boots, those are $1300 AYYY!!

First of all you walk down that brick retainer like it's your own runway and second I think the Ann Ds in that particular colour are my favourite!

You look effortlessly gorgeous as all ways, keep it up!

The skirt looks wondrous, Im in love ! I really like the photos of bowie too!

Hmm...where to begin..

Okay well let me begin with saying that this has got to be on of my favorite looks of yours!

It is pulled together so marvelously and also very effortlessly.

The nail polish + the jewerly combined with a teeny bit of midriff showing and those delishhh Demeulemeester's (they are DIVINE in that shade of brown by the way)

Its simple and chic and unique and perfect. You are fabulous.

Oh God ! Love so much these Ann D's... Please Jane, would you let me know where did you buy them ? Can't find this brown colour on the Internet... and I really REALLY want them !

Kisses from France, U're fab !

I totally adore the octopus ring! I WANT ONE TOO!

I like the brown and blue together. And how the shoes pick up on the colours in the skirt.

I LITERRALY love your ring and your skirt !!

AHA love the bono pics, he is great!

Octopus ring is so lovely, it looks wrapped around your finger very real.. and yep the shoes are amazing. I LOVE laces down the front with no tongue in the back... fab

wow!
i love all your Ann D's shoes from white, black and brown!
what a beautiful necklace, jane!

That ring!!! It's perfection!

Those shoes are just stunning.

Those shoes are amazing

I really have the feeling your photography has improved,
keep it up!
But i can remember your beginnings with the collages
and the scannings of your scrapbook, and i really loved those, they remembered me of the ones in the vogue Italia!

blue is an amazing colour on you...

ATTENTION PLEASE !! Ann D. lovers: if you go on the Zara website, you can see rip offs of these fabulous shoes... that are very alike and even more fabulous ! Don't know if they are currently in stores, though... I still haven't seen them.

Sorry, usually your style is interesting, but that looks just like a child dressing up... expensive shoes don't necessarily make a good outfit.

I love those shoes! =)

I LOVE the skirt! For some reason, it reminds me Akira. Or maybe informatics designs.

Speaking of octopi, I've been seriously considering what I have to do to have one as a pet (and if that's even legal). :P

love the ringg!! x
