rudie can't fail
Thursday, January 7, 2010 by jennie 
ever since erin from calivintage posted her outfit with the oxfords, i was fixated on finding some for myself. i scoured the internet for days; hours and hours wasted. then doubts began to set in about whether or not i could pull them off. sure, pointed shoes make your legs look longer, but would these just have the same effect as flats - stubby legs, but now with pointy feet? the great thing about obsession (which i think we could call it at this point) is that when you're so determined to have something, nothing stops you; even if you have your doubts.
then last week, i went to dsw to use my two $10 off coupons and squeeze in some end-of-year shopping to get the last few points i needed to attain the vip status membership. i never go to the floor with the men's shoes and women's sneakers and career shoes, but this time, i felt compelled to check things out on that floor. as i walk down the second aisle, lo and behold, i find oxfords! the only flat, women's oxfords style in the store, and they have my size!
it was love at first sight! with my coupons, i snagged these babies for $35. not bad, eh? as i looked over my photos for this post, i started to get the rude boy vibe from my outfit. in high school, i loved ska music, and to this day, i love punk bands like the clash.
since buying the shoes, i've been playing with different looks. now i'm obsessed with wearing my boyfriend's black joy division tee with black pants and these shoes while layering on necklaces and rings. i'm sure it will be a post soon, seeing as i can't stop wearing the outfit now.

Looking very mysterious here! I love the background that you're shooting in! I totally need a pair of oxfords. They're so manly and preppy...nice to juxtapose that with something super femme-y!

Hey Jennie, regarding your question on my blog about those photos I took of Elisa at 10th muse, well let me just answer that one :):)
The lighting is only due to the very amazing speedlite 580 EX ii flash (believe me, my room was dark due to lack of natural light) ,anything else is purely photoshoped ...
I simply started by adjusting contrast and colors (there is an auto option for that in the Imagecurves, hue, saturation options to play with the colors) ..and then I added some massive extra layers (in the menu:Layer>New layer option) in order to combine textures .. I got the textures (for free obviously) by searching deviantart.com for "vintage paper texture"..... on the first 2 pages you'll surely find something of your liking :)
ok next on I set the additional layers which were on top of the photo on Overlay mode to give transparency ..... and an extra final layer which I colored in blue and also set on overlay mode (but you can experiment with the other modes as well...
Ok so I hope this helps ,and your bf finds my explanation useful, anything else you might need to know about layers and generally photoshop (I recommend CS3 or 4) you can easily find on the web ,just google for photoshop tutorials and such
have a nice day you gorgeous sylish girl :):)
The shoes are a great buy, I need to find some like that! Love the photos too, Photoshop is so useful - you should downloaded some actions from Deviant Art and it edits your photos without you having to do a thing!
