Medieval Goes Mod

Today I bring you another unlikely fashion duo. Last Thursday we tried Courtney Love meets Jackie O. And today; Medieval goes Mod. Think of me as a modern day King...yes, King. It’s 2013; ladies is kings, too! Lately I loooooove combining two seemingly unrelated eras in fashion; just for shits and gigs. It’s fun to see what new/interesting combinations I can conjure up. In creating a medieval mod, I decided it would be fun to combine the youthful, “cool kid” attitude and quintessential swingin 60’s silhouette with the ultra luxurious and plush textiles of regal medieval fashion. Are head chains like, totally passe? Well DGAF...I mean how all-powerful can you be if you ain’t even rocking a crown?!

Thrift/Vintage everything. Head Chain = F21.

Until next time,

Brittany

  3. I've been doin the whole medieval thing lately too. it's powerfully addicting

    cannot believe these booties were THRIFTED!??!! I spent an annoying amount on some Jeffrey Campbell ones that look exactly the same.

    such an interesting skirt/shirt combo - but I LOVE. This shirt is ethereal and beautiful and looks so so expensive. You've got a knack for finding the best of the best.

    1. LOL! That second to last one is not so much a "pose" as it is my anxious fidgeting, but I'll take it and make it a thing ;) I always try to end a blog post with a photo of me walking away...just for dramatic effect. Tee hee.
