Furs, Leathers, sequins, vintage hats & Throwback Thursday!

My oh My I am the worst blogger ever--It does not seem like over a month since my last post, however I guess time flies with you're busy. I'm super excited for fall, San Francisco just went through it's mini Indian Summer, not sure if it will come back or not but I finally got my tan for the year!!

I've been working on eating healthier--basically low glycemic foods with the help of Usana's nutrimeal shakes  for breakfast--YUMM!

Anyway, to the fun stuff, yesterday I got a few more items that were stored away at Tosca's cabin in the mountains--Some LOVELY jackets a few leather jackets with the fringe and beading--GORGEOUS. A super soft fur vest, and some more amazing hats! I love the hats, I wish I spent more time on my outfits to incorporate these hats into my everyday wear--they are all such conversation pieces!

If anyone knows more about 'coke feathers' please share, I'm super curious I couldn't find very much on them. Most of the hats are from I.magnin and joseph Magnin though, very classy department store that is no longer around--bummer.

I've been doign more research on my jewelry items--have a piece from ART, some Boucher, Monet and one Marium Haskell--so exciting, I had no idea that there were collecter signed brands of fashion jewelry!! A few are missing some rhinestones though so I need to look into that.

Theres tons more that I want to catch up on, but I think that's good for now--except of course Toast to Tosca Throwback Thursday!!

The Mule: Power Symbol or Fashion Faux Pas?

Reaching as far back as Ancient Rome the shoe we refer to as Mules carried a status symbol. Due to extreme impracticality you can imagine only those living lavish, luxurious life styles could wear them. In fact, in Ancient Rome only the three highest elected officials were allowed to wear mules (at the time flat, closed toed, backless). Talk about exclusive. Not until the 18th century would Mules appear in the fashion world. They maintained their status symbol thanks to their impractical design, attracting wealthy women. Somewhere along the line mules lost their status symbol when prostitutes began wearings them. However, like many trends they were bound to make a comeback. Who better to set a trend than the iconic Marilyn Monroe. She brought mules to their height in the 1950's. The past 60 years mules have come and gone. Now they're back! We've seen them throughout the year, but they're entering fall with a pointed toe and new colors. Are you a fan of the mule?
