EOTD & OOTD Retro Me

Hi All!

Last weekend I bought a few tops in retro style
Today I wanted to wear one of them

This is the fabric, totally 70s!


I wore a neutral makeup with it
Regular base and mascara
Wet 'n Wild's Vanity palette
medium matte brown (crease)
deep matte brown (deep crease and lower lashline)
beige matte (lid and browbone)
DA Eyeliner in dark brown




Some full face pics



And the copper bracelet on the picture below is very special to me
It is made by my father, I guess somewhere in the 70s.
My father used to make jewelry and I am very happy I got this
bracelet, it's a perfect fit with the top
I don't think my dad would ever guessed his daughter would wear his bracelet one day


And some not so good pictures of my outfit

 

But I think you guys get the idea :-)

Normally I am more of a rockchick/newwave/sporty kind of dresser
but I love the 70s graphic designs

Do you like retro stuff?

I Have A Silver Fetish

Hi All,

Yes, I admit it, I have a silver fetish...(and a makeup fetish, book fetish, sneaker fetish, etc)
I've been collecting silver jewelry for about 25 years now.
I'm mostly into rings but I also own a fair amount of bracelets, pendants and earrings
When we go to Greece I always bring a new precious back home

And here's what I found this time..




It's a 925 sterling silver ring with garnet
It's in Byzantine style with a beautiful setting, and believe it or not, I didn't have anyting like it.

I'm very in love with it, it reminds me of vampires and fairytales
It's also a piece I will be wearing the rest of my life, jewelry like this is timeless and
ageless

How do you like my 'antique'?
Do you like to wear rings, what's your favourite?
