Tie Me Up! Button Me Down!

Today I'm paying homage to Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar and the first film of his that I saw called "Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down" starring Antonio Banderas. I watched this film when I was in my teen...which was eons ago. You could imagine my amazement to see a film with all that grown up nudity that wasn't a porno...and it was funny! It was only a few years ago that I've started to watch more of his films and I haven't been disappointed since. Below photo is inspired by the movie poster (...I know, it could be better in photoshop but it's the best I can do on my phone).

The Collar Of Magic

TPFF Restyle 2014 l Day 3: Collar

 peach pleated blouse / simon chang / thrifted

 white zipper jacket / zara

 gold sequin shorts / stylestalker / thrifted

 leopard heels / f21

I am posting two outfits today because I realized that I looked a day behind due to the difference in time zone in Australia. Looking thru the photos, I could tell that I was so done playing dress up...it was hot and my lips didn't want to smile anymore.

Anyways, this lovely peach pleated blouse is by Canadian designer Simon Chang (who is from Vancouver...yeah!). Unfortunately, it is a dated style from the 80's/90's so the sleeves are very puffy and it's a bit too big for me hence why I've got the white jacket to hide all that from sight. The top has been sitting in my "to-alter" pile for a long time (and at the rate that I'm fixing clothes, it may be there for a while longer).
