noel vallens: glittery fun

so, first things first, last week joelle wasn’t the only one gilting it up. gilt hosted a fabulous fashion-filled party, to launch their new site, giltfuse (which by the way is a great site, similar to the main gilt site, but offers a more contemporary selection). unfortunately joelle was heading out of town so she missed Of Montreal’s crazy fun show, but rick and i, along with greta were there to enjoy.

we knew it was going to be a crazy show when santa and elves started a mambo line. then these girls came out on stage and had a little body paint party.

on the left is our lovely bartender, and friend of rick’s. all of the bartenders were wearing d.i.y. gilt fuse t-shirts. someone was got a little happy with the shredding. and on the right, of montreal.

unfortunately, i have no outfit pictures from that night. but i did take some photos from this weekend…we’ll get to that in a minute.

but first, it’s come to mine and joelle’s attention that more of you than we expected can not tell us apart. we know, we know, the long dark hair, the pale skin, the rhyming names, both of us are always jumping…… but we had no idea the severity of the situation. it came to light when i got an email from my mom (sent to both me and joelle) saying, “I was looking at your outfit, and I did agree that it made your legs look washed out….and then I realized it was joelle and not you!” so, apparently even my own mother has a hard time telling us apart.

so, with nothing left to do, i headed to the john barrett salon this weekend where i cut off over a foot of my hair! ahh. no big deal. hopefully this will help you guys out a little. just wait til joelle dyes hers blonde.

this fall outfit was put together after having a few days of especially fall weather last week…only to have wonderful summer weather appear again. but i’ve been waiting v.e.r.y. patiently to wear these boots, and finally couldn’t help it anymore.
