STEAMPUNK MADONNA

For Fashion's Night Out last Thursday, I wanted to wear something quintessentially 'Bebe Zeva', all the while exploring an unexpected new theme. I paired a striped tulle dress with lace socks, velvet wedges, and an elaborate vintage hat to create a punky yet playful get-up. One part Victorian, one part Madonna, infinite parts Romy and Michelle.

Hat- Roselle Cottage

Socks- ICING

Wedges- Karen Elson x Nine West, http://www.ninewest.com/2011/KAREN_ELSON,default,pg.html

Made of bordeaux velvet with a flirty peeptoe flair, my new Karen Elson heels are my highest wedges to date! Of course I wore them with socks, but they look just as dashing sans the accessories. And they matched my feathered top hat so perfectly... I melt!

Everything is infinite,

Bebe Zeva

GOLD LEOPARD

I spy with my little eye... groovy '70s, glam '80s, and grunge '90s! One simple accessory can set the mood for an entire outfit, especially if its a statement piece. I chose not to limit myself and fused a triforce of iconic cultural themes to create this rock n roll glitter pow wow!

Beanie- H&M

Sunglasses- Yard sale

My favorite detail is the amethyst charm on my gold chain... thanks Adri!

WHAT'S UP DOC

Hey you! Doc Martens don't always have to look tough and tomboy! My new burgundy brogue lace-ups are the latest additions to my shoe caddy and I'm gonna wear 'em however I want, even if that means with a ruffly skirt. This outfit is a testament to my September school daze. Can't seem to get out of the high-socks and blazers mentality while classes are in session!

Hat- Frank Olive for Neiman Marcus

Blazer- Armani

Shirt- Express

Belt- Vintage
Skirt- Secondhand

Socks- Forever 21

Lace-ups- DOC MARTENS http://www.dmusastore.com/p-3767-brook.aspx

Burgundy leather and timeless design ASIDE, the best part about these shoes is their potential! I can wear them with a feminine twist or a rock edge or even an androgynous theme. *WINK WINK HINT COMING SOON*

Everything is infinite,

PETTI POLKA DOT

I rarely keep it simple and downright never wear polka-dots so I'm really out of my element in this outfit! Seems like something anyone would wear on a summer afternoon, and perhaps that's why it feels so foreign to me... it's just another picnic-in-the-park type o' get up. And at the same time, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that! I'd give anything to be settled down in the green grass with a basket full of cucumber sandwiches and sparkling lemonade right about now... slowly but surely I'm learning to feel contented while keepin' it sweet, subtle, simple, spotty.

Bag- Vintage

It might not be pastel pink, but this dotty dress is so irresistibly cute... doesn't it make you want to ride a bike?? I even wore my cream petticoat skirt underneath to add new dimension to the ripples of the dress. Could never use too many layers in my book!

Everything is infinite,

Bebe Zeva
