ckparis in SOBE shadows




hey all, how are you?
tell me...

moi? hanging out on south beach in my thomas wylde first season black distressed leather motorcycle jacket lined with paula's tete de mort print.
i paired it with distressed brown leather embroidered butterfly boots by gianni barbato.

just had a epiphany that i got both items in paris, at different times, from my very favorite store, l'eclaireur.
the one with no sign that you have to buzz to get in.
i need a paris quickie maintenant.

i am off to run/walk 138 flights of high rise stairs bc i need a major 'tude adjustment.
much cheaper than long term therapy and healthier than prozac, xanax or whatever the
Rx mood elevator drug du jour.

have a FABULOUS day.

i am gonna check out shoes today, lots of shoes, bc that too is mood elevator, although not
a cheap one.
be afraid, be very afraid...
miu miu satin platforms with daisies, prehistoric birds,
purple velvet platforms,
who needs sugar plums when those can dance in your head.

see you on the astral plane.

ckparis visits the rabbit hole


hey all, how are you?

i went to the rabbit hole in north miami beach again. such a fun vintage shop.
i found this vintage rhinestone sweater guard from the '50s.
it has 2 clips, one on each end to hold your sweater,
or whatever else you want, in place.
go visit tya and tell her ckparis sent you.
who knows?
she may give you a chinese sponge cupcake...
or you may find the trinket of your dreams.

see you on the astral plane.
