rodarte for opening ceremony

ughhh why do i torture myself??  just saw the rodarte for opening ceremony collection, which apparently is at the LA opening ceremony store.  must stay away from the store as i can not afford one thing.  maybe its time i start buying lotto tickets or gambling?

check out some of the goods:

lace-up leather jacket in stone, reverse pleated skirt, pom pom heel in beige, lost boys sunglasses in yellow snake 

hairy collar vest in dark nude, layered ruffle tank in sand dunes, lace-up leather shorts in mauve, pull on western boot in burgundy 

aztec intarsia sweater, tattoo tights in nude/black, roy orbison sunglasses in black 

drop stitch cable cardigan in dark nude/olive, floral bikini, lace-up leather shorts in stone, button-off leggings in grey,  
pull-on western boot in tobacco, roy orbison sunglasses in tortoise    

pom pom heel in moss

i just want one thing!  i'd be happy with just a pair of the pom pom heels!

black swan costumes

went to see black swan last night with some friends and the bf at the laemmle in pasadena. the movie was... strange. scary at some parts, funny at others and left me thinking "what happened? i don't get it." i was entertained though, so the movie served its purpose.

what i did notice was the costumes, so obviously i got home and did some research. i found out that the costumes were a collaboration between costume designer amy westcott and rodarte (how did i miss that news?).

i also really liked all the practice costumes. there was one really great grey knit that natalie portman wore, but unfortunately i couldn't find a picture. all the leg warmers, tu-tus and leotards make me wanna start doing ballet (or just dress like i do).
