SNAPPY LITTLE A.MCQUEEN SUIT

Fashion
Apr 3, 2009103 Comments

This Alexander Mcqueen suit was about to go on the vintage site but I had to try it on-not normally my kind of thing but timeless nonetheless.
^Can't shoot anything without the help of Staci & Shelley. 
I'm gonna keep this post brief, this has been the craziest week and I'm excited to have a night off.
But check out some of the new stuff on Atlantis Vintage-including these gorgeous necklaces and of course this suit!

    you’ve either been watchin’ too many of my elvis videos, you’ve been to tv johnny’s in houston on a drank run, or you just got a care pckg. from Hawaii. I’ll be sending you the Elvis picture shortly, but as for the johnny dang, he’s local, and start with flava flav and work down until you find your rapper bling equal. i’m saying start old school first, like ll.
    nice suit dress whatever, when you stand up though it’s in the shape of an aids rhythm, not a bad thing just needed to share

    I love the belt (of all the things for me to comment on) and think I’m going to have to try and make something similar because it looks like it can go with so much.
    Love the suit, love the Vivienne Tam beaded rose dress on Atlantis. Too bad none of the things I like would even begin to fit me. :(
