Today we’re going to have fun making runway looks street street style at a quarter of the price. All while paying homage to one of my favorite duo’s in fashion design. The Blonds out of NYC.
I saw their show several months ago on Youtube and died a little bit inside in the best way possible. It was so creative and I loved that they used inspiration from all of the Disney villains as their inspiration behind each looks. It was done in such a tongue in cheek way being camp and even more modern day high glam chic. It was actually a very punk rock take on a classic wholesome Americana theme. What really drew me to this collection is their use of sequins and fur and especially the use of sequin one pieces and leggings.
This entire look today was all sourced locally here in Tijuana between street shops and flea markets. Another great deal are my Prada shoes. These I found on the street at the Monday flea market in Playas de Tijuana for 40 Pesos… I repeat.. 40 PESOS which is the equivalent to $3 USD. Real Prada heels made in Italy. One of the heels had been crushed along the way and bent to the side. Luckily I knew my shoe repair guy Paco in TJ could repair it. Paco’s worked wonders on my shoes that often get destroyed due to the lack of infrastructure on the streets here. In total it cost me $17 for these heels with the repair fee.
Style Hack: This is my local shoe repair shop in TJ if you live in the area or are passing by and fell into a manhole (which there are no shortage of here). If it’s broken or worn down Paco can bring it back to life. Tell him Tiffini sent you!
