Anyway, I decided to pick some sort of theme to play around with and came up with "shimmery gold sequins". When I think of gold sequins, I visualize a platinum blonde girl with acrylics, luscious curls (and not in a very enticing way), and orange skin. So given the fact that such embellishments can be considered awfully tacky, I decided to start messing around with gold sequined pieces, trying to make them look somewhat modern, and well, somewhat ME.

Antik Batik Erin mini dress, Nicholas Kirkwood platforms, Penti Victoria patterned backseam tights, Linda Farrow vintage 1950's sunglasses, and Ralph Lauren emerald green crocodile clutch

Miu Sequined peep toe platforms, Topshop black shearling coat, Miu Miu corset mini dress, Stella McCartney garter belt, Nordstrom sheer thigh high stockings, and Carlos Falchi alligator clutch

Topshop gold sequins harlequin shorts, Hue opaque tights, La Garconne slouchy knit sweater, YSL tribute platforms, and OPI bright red nail color

Love the second pair of shoes, the second clutch (cream.pink) & that pair of harlequin shorts.
Absolutely amazing picks!
I'm with you sister - it's why I don't vist polyvore often. Though I'm thinking of selling my firstborn child for a pair of Nicolas Kirkwood shoes, just kidding.
adore the mini dress!
Lovely desireable outfits!

Mmm...those YSL tribute platforms are unbelievably gorgeous!
and haha, I love the description of girls wearing gold sequins - I have seen far too many of those girls around my town!!!

I love the YSL tribute platforms and the Miu Miu corset mini dress! So awesome, seriously.
Maybe we could link? I just started my blog, so, I was hoping to get more contacts, ha.

I'm really lemming the YSL tribute platforms. But 1. too expensive. 2. I wouldn't be able to walk in them.
Love the Miu Miu mini dresses! I absolutely adore sequins right now, as well. How cleverly creative of you to mix and match! You have a great blog! Would you like to do a blog link exchange with me?

That Miu Miu mini and the Garter belt take me away...I would wear the entire bottom outfit, red nails included...Am I late (as usual) on polyvore?..It's my new favorite site.I need a Xanax ASAP!
those outfits are, indeed, very you! the dress is stunning.
Your blog is amazing!
Congrats from Portugal.
quisiera encontrar uno igual pero he buscado en todas partes (fui a target hoy mismo buscando uno) y no tengo suerte :( si tienes suerte en encontrando uno, dejame saber! :)
they are all beautiful!
if only...
beautiful
i love all 3 of them. but i am so digging those sequin shorts on the 3rd one! those are hot!
toni
I have that Antik Batik dress!

i just adore your blog karla! added you to the list.. hope we can trade links ;) <3 trang

love them all!
my favorite is #2; that dress and those heels...
i love how they are all you. can totally see you rocking those sequin shorts!
I love the first and last ones
I find polyvore sort of a waste of time.
Love all of these ensembles.
What is your username on polyvore? I want to see the rest of your outfits.
i can def see you wearing these :)
those topshop harlequin shorts are intimidating though hehe
i hadn't heard of polyvore until now, it was a terrible idea to start. i just can't stop wishing i owned everything
i love the Nicholas Kirkwood platforms. i can totally see you rocking a pair
love the mini dress and the YSL tribute platform shoes!
I can totally see you owning all of those outfits and looking killer in them too! I wish i had those Nicolas Kirkwoods, everytime I see his shoes in a magazine, I wish so hard they were on my own two feet. Love your blog!

been lusting after the miu miu pumps mary janes for so long except in yellow
I played with Polyvore last night too. And I stopped because eveything I picked went into my cart in UO. LOL. I love that harlequin shorts combo. :)
i love all 3 looks:) i think they look even better because of the way you put them together. without your ideas or those accessories (shoes,bags, tights), the outfits would appear ordinary in spite of the sequins that scream gold on that top and those shorts or the pouff on the miu miu dress:) you're a great dresser:) i adore nicholas kirkwood if only i could try on a pair... his shoes were (still are actually) on sale in hongkong with some styles selling for as low as $390. Sadly, they barely had any sizes left---well not my size anyway.
surprise! :)))

Un beso fuerte y enhorabuena.
Speaking of Polyvore, I created a look inspired by you ages ago.

I really love that first dress, gold sequins are my love.
Gold sequins are always fab when accessories/accesorized accordingly. Fantastic job, as usual. And I am dying for all three pairs of shoes. :( Also, that glorious corset dress.
I love gold sequines but I know they can be tricky to be worked with. But I love all the looks you've created, especially the last one!
i love the second outfit.
feels more casual.
check out my blog tooo.happynewyear
Ahh, gold glitter and those YSL tribute platforms. One can never go wrong with that combination!
gorgeous combinations you have made!
*happy new year*
LOVE the outift with the garters! So, so gorgeous that it's depressing me now too...
Beautiful, inspirational outifts.
Happy New Year! I hope you have a beautiful year xx
Hey karla
just wondering how do you get your sets up onto your blog from polyvore?
<3
I got that TOPSHOP coat from christmas and basically wore the entire no. 2 outfit for new year, cept with bright pink AP stocking. Was immense xx
Those sequin shorts are hot! Love them. Very cute looks, Karla!
You are officially my latest and greatest style muse. Keep inspiring us!
