Earlier this week I was playing around with these Christopher Ross butterflies-they are actually belt buckles.
If you want to know more about C. Ross you should head over to my mom's blog, she's the Christopher Ross expert!
Shelley has been the best dog in the world lately-normally she is *very* naughty but lately she has been very cuddly and well-behaved. I guess she's just getting out of her puppy phase.
Ann Demeulemeester lace-ups-so comfy, I wear them like some people wear flip flops. Wearing them with some cobwebby tights from Forever 21.
Shelley & Staci & me chilling out on the day bed.
Shelley hops in my lap for a web-cam shot…
Shelley looks pissed that I'm not taking this picture seriousely…sorry Shelley.
I'm wearing a vintage Givenchy necklace my mom got on eBay-sooo incredible, it has since been polished and looks even better.
And since this post is already pretty random, here is a random assortment of my favorite things I made.
First row: 1. Harry Dean Stanton, current favorite actor. I love his face. 2. Perdita Durango, my alter ego &favorite Lynch character ever, appears briefly in Wild at Heart played by Issabella Rosselini. 3. A favorite picture of Kate Moss.
Second Row: 4. A favorite portrait by Egon Schiele 5. Vintage French Vogue-I wish their photographers & models were still around. 6. David Lynch 7. Serge Lutens Serge Noire, my favorite perfume.
Third Row: 8. The soundtrack to Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence, composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto. 9. Seated Woman by Vasili Nikolaevich, 1918 10. Currently reading Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon 11. Marfa, Tx-my next travel destination.
Fourth Row: 12. Helmut Newton's Illustrated No. 4-Dr. Phantasme 13. Katsuhiro Otomo's steampunk anime Steamboy 14. David Byrne 15. The soundtrack to Bilitis, composed by Francis Lai. 16. A graffitied truth that makes me laugh
Have a pleasant Sunday :)

This is how David Bowie feels about being left off of your collage:

(I’m sorry, I’ve been waiting forever to use that gif. He likes ur outfit though)

Oh.
Well then this is David Bowie feels about my screwup:

I absolutely ADORE Egon Schiele. Glad to see another fan of his work! :D
those butterfly belt buckles are amazing!
The model on the French Vogue is singer/actress Marie Laforet. If you like her, you should rent the movie “Purple Noon” (“Plein Soleil”), an earlier version of “The Talented Mr. Ripley”.
you will appreciate that two of my three cats (the eldest two) are named after Wild at Heart characters Lula and Sailor! When I got them 3 1/2 years ago I was obsessed with that movie and since they were boy and girl it seemed appropriate. I love your tights and of course the shoes as well.
xo
those tights are beautiful, they look so great with your Ann D’s
Ok a bunch of things:
1.The tights and Ann D’s look awesome together
2. Your puppies are sooooooooo adorable
3. I love your inspiration board collages, so many different things that inspire you.

That necklace is stunning and I love the butterflies!
Oh man, Harry Dean Stanton is one of those “better with age” guys for sure.
The tights are cute, I’ve definitely ruined more than one pair of knitted stockings by getting my foot caught in the holes haha.
Hi, I`m a new reader (can`t remember where I found the link…). Nice blog! I`m quite fascinated with the amount of shoes that you and your mom have. How many shoes do you buy in a month or a year (average?) I guess that you must be quite comfortable money-wise ;-), but don`t you ever get guilty with buying so many shoes? I do, especially if I buy two pairs that are kind of similar and within a short space of time. And one more question – when do you wear the shoes? Most of your amazing shoes are extremely high, and must be a pain to walk in for even a couple of hours! Do you wear them around the house or when you are having a cup og coffee in a cafe, or when walking around for hours doing errands? Do you ever wear flat shoes? (I guess that was two more questions…;-))
Stunning photos! And I love how you show your goofy side. I think I may need those butterfly belt buckles… dreamy :)
haha looks like a great sunday! i love those cob-web tights and that necklace…oh my.
I LOVE YOUR WACKY PHOTO!
AND THOSE BUTTERFLY BUCKLES ARE SO AWESOME!

Rockin’ two different nail polish colors (toes v. fingernails), I like it! I always thought having the same color toes and nails would look a bit overwhelming…
Anywho, lovely buckles and jewelry!

Those butterflys would make a dope shirt pattern.

I would die to have one of those butterflies. They’re gorgeous.
I have a vintage brass one, but the gold plating has tarnished & corroded and I have no idea how to have it repaired or if it can still be repaired.
I saw a feature on your blog in an old issue of Teen Vogue. It seemed really interesting so I came to take a look. I’m from Dallas and I’ve been through Marfa a couple of times. I thought you’d like to know that about 40 minutes outside of Marfa on the the way to Valentine, Texas there’s an art installation by two German artists. It’s a Prada store seemingly in the middle of nowhere. It’s definitely worth taking a look at, and it would be a great place for a shoot!
Hi Jane, great pictures. Love the Butterfly buckles especially. Ha ha! Your face with Shelley looks kind of Joker in the Batman movie :D That’s something interesting! Love wackiness! :D Very entertaining. And all your weekends to come will be filled with fun & peace! Cheers~
I love you so much Jane ! <3
Do you mind giving a simple tutorial on how to take amazing photos like yours ?
The color and lighting is always awesome !
Have you seen the movie The Good Life? Harry Dean Stanton amazed me and broke my heart in that movie.
GREAT BUTTERFLIES. LOVE GOLDEN´S.

Dear Jane;
I have been following you for a while and though our style is million years apart i would like to say how inspiring you are. A 16 year old girl living in such a small town and going against odds. I have always wondered what your classmates think about you and the way you dress. Not every one understands what clothes express and it is usuall to think about the ridiculousness of an outfit. If one day you wake up feeling that you have too many shoes or clothes and that you need to get rid of a small part of your treasure…just let you know that my wardrobe it’s not full yet.Haha.
Besos desde España.

I’m also a new reader to your blog, Sea of Shoes. I saw it featured in Teen Vogue a while back, but never got a chance to actually engross myself in it. And, I find it enchanting. You’re such a gorgeous girl, and the outfits you compile along with your handy dandy glorious shoes is truly amazing. (: I wish my mom were half the fashionista your mom is. Well, I guess we all have different roles in life. Anyways, lovely blog and lovely everything. Those Christopher Ross butterfly buckles are divine, and I was meaning to ask you a question, although I’m sure a lot of other people have questions too. These adorable outfits, do you wear them out in public on a regular basis? Or do you just wear them for your blog?
Hope you have a wonderful week!

Oh and your dog is the most adorable thing I have ever seen. (If my yorkie heard this, she would truly hate me for life), what breed is she?
Oh my God, the Anne D.’s with the tights is LOVE.
i just got back TODAY from marfa, texas. it was so surreally amazing.

it dawned on me (since u have most of my fave shoes), why have i not seen u in kirkwoods? do u not have any or have i just not seen them? i am still lusting over those purple ones from last season.
peace and love

Lovely photos!! :)
I just posted butterflies in my hair a few days ago on my blog. That’s a very fun picture Ms. Lady! I’ve loved them ever since the beginning of Mariah Carey and her obsession with them. Check it out =)

Jane,
your make-up is absolutely amazing in these pictures!
Ecspecially in the first ones with the smokey -eye thing you got going on there, and then in the later ones with that bright red lipstick.
Absolutely amazing!
Do you do it all yourself? If you do, I’m in much admiration!
-cay.
oh my i love your outfit!
and ohh those Ann D’s, i would die for them.
ughhh i covet your shoes and sense of style! i wish my mom had fashionable pieces i could borrow. i love that goofy picture of you and your dog, adorable.
I think that the Givenchy necklace may be the find of the decade! I only wonder what yr. it was…and polish always makes things look nice, could anyone give me some recomandations on products that are gentle and do the job well?
Thanks!
Sincerely,
-Cassandra
heyyyyyyy i love ur outfits!!!

i have a problem with my skin really bad

LOVE your blog! I stumbled across it a few days ago in vogue, and sat down and just read the whole thing today! also, i was wondering if you’d ever tried Irregular Choice? They’re a kitschy cool UK line with a flair I think you’ll love! Also, very reasonably priced! happy shopping!
http://irregularchoice.com/
yay!! thumbs up for ryuichi and steamboy! i want some ann d!!!;P
I like how the shoelaces of your Ann D’s blend with the intricate pattern of the tights… Great combination!
The tights are lovely.
I’m trying to say this in the nicest way, you need to lay off the lipstick.
Fabulous photos!! Your shots are always great, but these are really amazing :)
You’ve got the most sophisticated taste… Thomas Pynchon? Really??? I know he has a new book out, but Gravity’s Rainbow is just unreadable.
I adore that Givenchy necklace that your mom got on eBay!
Lynch is a killer inspiration. Too bad his fashion commercials suck.

I just love the second photo. I stole it (A) and it’s my new background on my pc. I love the colours.
I am an avid reader – you are definitely my favorite fashion blogger out there!
As such, I must comment that these are among pics are the best pics you’ve taken – just so pretty & whimsical with the lighting, colors, everything. I love the butterflies. I have a few CRs myself. Not the butterflies though.
From across the globe in Qatar – keep on rockin’.
Love the shoes that you are wearing!

I saw these shoes and I thought about you. for me they’re a little bit similar to ann d. shoes but these covered ones. u like them?
sorry for my poor English
that shoe wall is probably the most amazing thing i have ever seen!
I AM SOOOOOO JEALOUSSS
HOLY SHIT. you probably have more shoes than i have clothes lol
i really like schiele
he’s one of my favorite artrists i really like the colors and the style of his line it’s very unique and expressive; but the best thing it’s how well he can express the female form with that decandent side without forgeting the inocence
his work it’s really an inspiration
those butterfly shoes are beautiful….

Your gold nail polish + gold butterflies creates such a sick photo
many of us can do different things every time more effective and polished and that is very important, because we must to do everything as well as good possible.thatś why i think this blog is really fabulous.
So you sell the Christopher Ross buckles?
I also liked your style! It’s pretty cool when a girl has vintage make-up. Go ahead, you are great!
