Spent the last few days hanging out in the hot hot heat taking pictures of these amazing faux fur jackets...looked like a total fool!
I am so in love with this blonde faux mink...
Worn with cut-off Madewell corduroys, vintage chambray men's shirt, and these amazing Prada studded peep-toe slingbacks.
Stacy, our shoe sales girl, showed us these shoes..my mom and I instantly fell in love when we tried them on. I don't think they are something I would have picked out on my own...I'm so glad Stacy had them out for me to try on, because they go with EVERYTHING!
Here are two more of my favorite faux furs...one being a leopard mohair pea coat & the other a shagadelic 70's monstrosity.
Here is my mom modeling the pea coat..these pics were taken on her friend Jane's property, such pretty woods!
Worn with J. Crew cords & Jil Sander pumps
Can't resist a close-up shot of these shoes...I'm so jealous!
Heres the shaggy coat...judging from the label, it isn't actually vintage.
I got this coat when I was in Tokyo...it was pouring down rain, and my mom and I were wondering around Shimokitazawa. This coat was carelessly hung outside the door of a vintage boutique, and it was drenched in rain...it looked like it had been crying. I had to bring it home with me...even if it smells funky.
These Ann D boots are new...you know I fall in love with an Ann Demeulemeester boot every season...these are bad ass. They're clunky, rigid, and comfortable. Notice how they are actually two separate parts...the shaft of the boot is detachable. Expect to see these in many, many posts to come...
More to come soon!
xo Jane
Very nice and your new boots are fabulous!

I love that you love faux fur. So luxurious and cozy. Would love a jacket to wrap myself in right about now. It's not exactly boiling hot in Vancouver these days.

jane, I love seeing high-priced, arty designer items combined with vintage combined with urban outfitters combined with your super-sophisticated yet still teenaged sensibility. great combo, and it's what makes this blog so fascinating to me. it gets boring seeing margiela or ann d in vogue -- much cooler seeing how they can be incorporated in a real person's real life. same goes for your mom! nice shots here.

The boots are badass. I am still in recessionista mode, so I am going to rock the two Ann D boots I picked up last year and wait for the christmas sales to see what I can pick up this year in terms of Ann D Boots. Hopefully, my size will be left! Big risk.

WOW, JANE! Your way of mixing old with new and cheap with high-class is really amazing! The last coat has a very interesting and particular look...kinda like beach hair;-).
U are always such an inspiration! I am excited to see more faux fur styles. Check out FashionCoup for Paris updates: http://fashioncoup.com/.

Gorgeous! Simply gorgeous! I wish the weather would hurry up & get cold enough to wear faux fur!
Also, I'm loving your hair! It really suits you well.
XOXO,

Your mom's Jil Sanders are killer.
I can't wait until it gets hot enough to wear all my crazy coats, either. I thrifted a few new ones over the summer that I'm pretty stoked on...

Posted by: Jules | September 10, 2009 at 06:55 PM
I love those black Ann D's. They look like they would be so comfortable and warm during winter. A stylish, sturdy boot like that would be perfect for the snow. The faux furs are amazing as well. Quite a collection!

i love the shaggy coat on you!
Posted by: Erin | September 10, 2009 at 08:26 PM
Both these fur coats are very gorgeous, looking forward to seeing you guys wear them more as the cooler weather takes over. And as always, beautiful shoes! The Ann Ds are very chic, I love the fact that the heel is not too high at all, and I never realised they had a detachable shaft...always thought they were just ankle/calf length. Don't too fond of the studded Pradas though...they look way too clog-like to me!
