I reentered society today after four days of being snowed in alone. Even my cat was like, "Please go to work so I can miss you again." If I look a little glassy, it's because I'm sick. (Winter is terrible! Everything is terrible!) I did manage to put clothes on, though it's not terribly exciting:
Here I am wearing my Everlane cashmere v-neck sweater, black Banana Republic high waisted skinny jeans (which also come in a dark wash that I kinda want) and my old Frye Veronica boots.
I did a little fancy necklace layering because why not. I'm wearing a tiny pyramid stud necklace (very much like this one) and my Giles and Brother hook necklace. They have a newer pendant that's pretty damn sweet. I decided my outfit still looks a little plain so I added my new Barbour Union Jack scarf:
It was a birthday gift from Nina and I LOVE it. She said it would go with two of my favorite things: My red LV bag and my Downtown Field Jacket. So good, right?
I am all about a good patterned scarf to totally change up a boring outfit. This one by Kate Spade would go with everything and this fun MBMJ scarf would brighten up any complexion. For bargain picks I love this graphic print scarf from MANGO and you can't beat the price of this block print at H&M.
It totally looks great with my red LV bag. You have a red bag, right? No? Get on that. Or maybe on that. Seriously, there is no excuse and I truly believe the right smart red satchel will improve your life. Also, boots:
These are my old Frye Veronica Slouch and they're a workhorse. I don't wear them a ton but they're just the thing for cold, icy days. 6pm.com seems to have the best price going right now, just FYI. Okay, I'll stop now.
That scarf is fantastic! It's a perfect gift for an Anglophile friend who is still grieving Mr. Bowie (as are we all). Arrggh - will it go on sale? Or should I buy it now?
ReplyDeleteIt looks to be sold out nearly everywhere - the only place I could find it online is Orvis but hopefully it'll go on sale for you.
DeleteI love your scarf, and practically squeed when I saw your Epi Speedy! I've been carrying my black Epi Petit Noe lately because it's indestructible.
ReplyDeleteHi, I have been a follower (but not poster for awhile). Love the scarf and thanks for turning me on to Everlane. Also, thanks for the tip on the Matilde's. A friend gifted me a pair that were made in Brazil that did not fit her properly. I purchased a made in Italy pair recently on ebay in good shape in my size and there really is a difference. Liked the original pair (which I am selling), love the new pair.
ReplyDeleteYay! I'm glad you found an Italian pair. They really are better.
