Worldwide Fashion Wednesday: The Kat Blog Day #2

Today I took a nice little trip to KOP to take back my coveted black suede Gucci thigh-high boots which the little zipper came off of. I ordered these from the Rodeo Drive Gucci store because KOP didn't carry them (half a** store). So anyway, I was told that they would have to send them away for 6 weeks. Yea that didn't sit well... I quickly pulled out my LV calendar (that my wonderful mummy bought me years ago and every year buys me a new filler for xmas, thanks mummy, love you!) and in my strong yet cute personality kindly showed the young man that 6 weeks is nearly summer, and that would just not be acceptable considering the price that was paid and the zipper came off. So I'll have them in 2 weeks. Not a life or death situation, but annoying none-the-less... End of story.

p.s. Where is the quality and where in the h*ll is the service???

p.s.s. I needed a replacement, so these Lanvin numbers ended up coming home with me... Especially since they were on sale :)

Worldwide Fashion Wednesday:

Here are two fabulous girls from Sweden. I love their styles! They both look unique and ready for a day out that leads into a fun night. I love a convertible look, that can go from day to night.

Also, I'm obsessed with the oversized blazer, vintage jeans and large leather bag. I wonder what she has in there???


Quote of the Day:

"Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slave of the ordinary." Cecil Beaton

Sir Cecil Beaton was a fashion and portrait photographer and took pics of ladies such as Marilyn, Audrey and Greta. He was also a costume designer and won International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame in 1970. He is pretty fabulous!

This photo taken by Sir Beaton of Miss Monroe is my photo of the day. Enjoy my little sister (Samantha Daisy).


Fact of the Day:

An Hermes scarf is sold somewhere in the world every
twenty-five seconds.


Vintage Piece of the Day:

This is a 1960's maxi dress that is in The Kat collection. If you are interested in trying it on. It is for sale! Just send me an email to set up an appointment,
brooke@thekatacomb.com.

My beautiful and wonderful friend Sarah Jean Berry took this photo this summer in Fairmount Park for The Kat's first photoshoot :)


I found this dress out in Cali and it's really fabulous! Can't believe it's still here...

What am I wearing today??? Hummm, not sure yet... Once I figure that out, I will put up a post.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
