Yellow skinny jeans, white socks, metallic pumps, skull jacket and a one of a kind manicure. Anything left out?

Is that tie-dye mixed with 1980's style cubes on her shirt?

 

Anything left out?

Yeah - a gnarly 80s blouse, some kind of laminate, a surprisingly clean hobo bag and a balloonful of junk.

 

Wowzers

 

"Anything left out?"

I was going to say;

Crack pipe and all other earthly posessions inside oversized hand bag, but Elise beat me to it with the ballon full of heroin.

('couse she might have both)

 

I especially love the I

 

shopping cart & crack pipe

 

An entirely distinct and individual style. Others demean her. I celebrate her vibrant daring.

 

that ain't a she - that is a MAN!

 

Hawt!

 

A man with an adams apple-ectomy?

Hey don't bash her. She's clean and the skull is a El Día de los Muertos inspired pink number. Whatever the style it's hers and it's Angelino.

 

amazingly original

 

is that a key and a backstage pass hanging from the lanyard?

 

She does look like a he but I truly believe it's a she.
I talked to her for about 5 minutes before and during this shoot.
I think years of I don't know what, have taken a toll on her.
She was clean and had tons of style!
She walked with pride and did not seem to care that her hair was a little messy and some of her fingernails were missing.
Don't you wish you could say F*CK IT and walk around like this!
I don't think this style comes from a lack of funds, it's just her style.
I give her 10 thumbs up and a wink for her tremendous look!

 

She did have a key around her neck on a cord that read "I heart USA"

Maybe the pass was a press pass from Fashion Week!

Hey baby

 

She makes me want to quit smoking.

 

LOL kristenester!
She would be the perfect Anti-smoking poster girl!

Elise, I love the "balloonful of junk"

Zach, yes it appears to be a tie-dye patch work number, I haven't seen one of these before, pretty original.
It kind of reminds me of those cheap purses made from scraps of bad leather.

Thanks db ;)

She might want to invest in some of those panties that give your ass a little lift, besides that it all works.

I wish I could find her again to tell her how many people like her look, she would take a hit off her cig and smile!

 

I'm with Bingo. I like the Dia De Los Muertos motif on her jacket. The very epitome Los Angeles cultural diversity.

 

I agree jrb, that was a great observation by Bingo.
I also love how Bingo labeled the look "Angelino"
