we both scored some badass “statement shoes” this week and wore them out to a show last night…
Sorry about the blurrrr…
Eve’s wearing a floral 40s style top from Charlotte Russe, a red wool asymmetrical coat from H&M, Happy Monday jeans, thrifted yellow belt and red suede pixie boots. She’s playing a blue glockenspiel. I’m wearing a black twill peacoat with babydoll tailoring (LadyLanguage again!), a brown wool sweatervest, a thrifted navy high-waisted skirt, a plaid belt i got from a plaid dress in my closet, cableknit over-the-knee socks and some thrifted brogues. My shoes look pretty inconsequential in the photo, but they’re actually these fucking awesome, incorrigibly ugly products of clog/brogue/wedge incest which i thrifted but were probably originally produced for Mervyn’s circa 1989…
BTW, I adopted a doggie from the SPCA!
I KNOW, right?? I lucked out and popped in mere hours after she was transferred there. She’s a (possibly purebred?) 1 y/o redbone coonhound and practically perfect in every way. OK, well she’s bigger, younger and less trained (read: not at all) than I was looking for, but seriously? I HAD NO CHOICE. Lookit!!!
Her name is Daphne, which I sort of like, but she doesn’t answer to it so really I can name her whatever I want. Ideas?? I take her home on monday.
to stick with the D – i think “daisy” would be perfect for her. such a cutie! i’m looking forward to see more pictures…
Fabulous shoes – congrats on the adopted doggie! (:
you should name her pixie.
or something like cakes would be niiice.
daphne is really lovely, but how much fun would it be to call out “scarhhhhlett!” at the dog run? oooh, or tallulah.
i like daphne. she looks like a strong dog, and that’s a strong name for her.
cute outfits ladies!
If you want to keep the “D” kind of name,
might I suggest Desire.
Pronounced (dez-uh-ray)…
She’s beautiful!
That dog is SO cute! Her facial expression is so human0like and it screams ‘I love you, adopt me plz…’. I’m in process of trying to adopt a pup right now too. Good luck with her!
marmelade.
she is beautiful! i like daisy too
How about something classic like Audry or Ginger?
She’s obviously a Rhoda.
she is so cute!!!
you two are basically the coolest people ever!! and she looks like a pretty rad dog… i like babyfoot’s suggestion of marmalade, btw.
Thanks guys! Those are all awesome suggestions. Its funny how almost everyone is suggesting southern old lady names like Fiona, Imogen, Faye, Rosemary, Eloise, Margot, Margine, Basil, Constance, Louise, Louisa, Sabina, Ramona, Mathilde, and Olive, which were exactly what i had in mind! So Rhoda, Tallulah and Scarlett were definitely in the running! I even really liked Cakes! Marmalade is great too!
But Eve actually came up with the winner (I came up with the spelling). it’s Maebe (pronounced Maybe)!
Definitely Maebe.
Thanks again you guys! She’s still in hospital recovering from her spaying, so I pick her up tomorrow morning… Can’t. Wait.
maebe (middle name) marmelade!
I think she’s definitely a Velma. Love that peacoat.
I know it isnt very creative but the first name that i thought of was Daisy…I dont know but i think it cute…congratulations she is soooo cute.
so she’s named after maebe funke from arrested development?
She looks like a “Ruby” to me.
My folks had a Redbone Coon and she looks exactly like Beau looked so I’d say she is a purebred. Watch her though, she’ll want to hunt birds and such.
Congrats on your pooch! One of mine is a pound dog and one is from a rescue group. I love to see people adopt from the pound!
That is a very beautiful dog, I’ve been wanting to adopt another dog forever now. And that orange coat in the top picture is amazing, my face is green with jealousy.
