🌊🩵 aquatic chic 🩵🌊

Behold, my Little Monsters of LB

 This week I emerge from the depths of the ocean,
as siren of the sea 🧜‍♀️

My look this week holds elegance and is dripping with mystique.
I thought I’d make my entry a splash but make it slay as I always do. 
My long, flowy aqua dress, with fabric mirroring the movement of the waves crashing down on shore. 
What really makes this outfit pop is when I activate my water-bending skills. Watch out Poseidon, with a flick of my wrist, I summon the sea to dance around me.
So lovelies, this right here is aquatic chic at its finest,
🌊 Everlasting  beauty and the power of the sea  🌊

It's a new challenge to see how people can change your look. I like words like transformation, reinvention, and chameleon. Because one word I don't like is predictable…

LANA DEL REY'S VINTAGE AQUATIC CHIC SWIMSUIT

For this look, I wore this vintage americana 1940s-1950s swimsuit that I got from a vintage store in Berkeley that I paid $8000 for. The store owner said that Marilyn Monroe wore it only for 2 hours at the beach. It conveys this feeling of nostalgia and a longing for a past which is now gone. I also wore these beautiful, bedazzled, kitsch statement earrings that I stole from Lizzy Grant's New Jersey trailer home while she was out doing an interview. I heard that she wore them in an unseen music video she made in 2008 that was uploaded online then was deleted 2 minutes later. I'm so glad I managed to get them, as they really complete my look. For my makeup, I painted my lips red to seem like cherries in the spring. I also wore mascara, eyeliner, and some eyeshadow that once belonged to Sylvia Plath. That's at Ieast what the Sephora employee said. I also painted my nails with red nail polish despite going into the bright blue ripples of the water. You can never have too much glamour. Last but not least, my hair is inspired off of old Hollywood glamour and I dyed it a darker shade of brown, since my baby said he would make it nighttime all today if he had his way so it would fit the mood of his soul.

Why did these 3 months feel like an eternity

LIPSTERS OF LANABOARDS, PREPARED TO BE GAGGED BY THE MELANCHOLIC, GLAMOROUS QUEEN OF CAMP MYSELF, LANA DEL REY!

“For this glamorous couture campy look, I went with an old blue sweater I found while raiding my sister Chuck's closet as always. The dark blue color represents the shades of blue my baby lives in and his eyes, jazz, and attitude. I also chose this long black and white skirt that emulates melancholia. I stole it from H&M when I was doing a campaign for them years back. I also chose these Hollywood sadcore black leather sandals that I found at the beach, pointing towards the ocean. I can't believe someone would leave such beautiful shoes behind! I also chose this glimmering, nostalgic necklace that I bought from an angel headed hipster on the streets of L.A (where the future is now) for $45. And for the hair, well, I just put it up and hope for the best. I just kept the makeup simple and didn't make it complicated. So, yeah, that's my campy look to put it.”
