Day 50: Annie Hall

"Honey, there's a spider in your bathroom the size of a Buick."

-Alvy Singer from Annie Hall (1977)

And inspiration week is back and in full swing with the most interesting outfit I have worn to school ever in my life. This is also the first time I have worn a tie not for costume purposes. It was all in good fun for one of my favorite women in fashion history, the always wonderful, Diane Keaton. For those of you who do not dedicate your lives to knowing about the pop culture from any decade but the one you are living in, here's the fill in. Diane Keaton is a California born actress who is most famously known for her role as Annie Hall, a role made specifically for her (her birth name is Diane Hall and her nickname is Annie, put them together, what do you get, Annie Hall). The infamous menswear look was established and embellished on in her name, a look that she kept up with for years and continues to add in occasional today.

Another good name for this outfit would have been, "Something Borrowed" because the majority of this outfit did not come from my closet. The dress took new form as a vest being tucked into a pair of high-waist DNKY trousers that belong to Fiona, belted with a vintage brown belt donated by my grandmother, vintage blazer, white men's fitted botton-up from Alec's closet purchased at H&M, Alec's Scottie Dog red tie (one of my favorite's), and vintage saddle shoes.

I had a lot of fun prancing around in this all day to class, to rehearsals, to Boomer's for burgers, fries and a melt, and a Seattle Opera Young Artists performance of Werther. It was here that I fell in love with an Asian and an Avatar. Evening win.
