If you hadn't already said those exact words, I would have immediately said how whimsical I thought this was! I love the colour and fbaric combinations.. The feathers just make it rather playful.Not too serious! And gorgeous boots..
i love seeing the same people on different blogs, i get to see so many perspectives. you and 'jak&jil' share a lot of the same fashionable people. i create all these back stories in my mind. i love knowing that all of these fabulously chic people cross paths all the time, and that they love sharing their love for all things wearable.
basically: seeing this woman on jak and kil i thought "i love how the feathers and cardigan lend a sense of femininity to her edgier black pallete and chunky shoes." on your blog i thought: "how amazingly simple and classic, with a fun feather detailing to give her that extraa something."
perspective. it's all about perspective.
regardless, everyone on the blogs i follow are impeccably refined in their wardrobe.
I think there should be a law that everything has to have pockets! Love this look and how she just threw on the cute cardi over such a statement dress! http://fashionpearlsofwisdom.blogspot.com/
In the first photo, I could not figure out what the fringe was – from a lovely scarf! She is very cute, has great legs, her shoes/boots are nice, great earrings. The background of the shutters, dress shop and yellow lines on the pavement is very nice also.
very nice: easy, sexy, just a tad sophisticated, care-free and casual all at the same time. yes, the pockets are just right! just dont put your keys in them….i know i ve got pockets like them… still, fashion is not always about practicality:)
Love the juxtaposed textures, colours, nonchalantly placed hands in pockets and the feathers! The navy against baby pink is stunning too! Such a playful, fun & beautifully-put-together outfit!
Cute Carrie Bradshaw look-alike, except she's more real. Ah, to be young again and flashing the gams! I, too, really like the pockets and also the long sleeves as a contrast to all the leg exposure. She rocks her own style.
I've seen skirts with these kinds of pockets, but never a lovely dress like this one! Something about it is classy yet nightlife-ish. I love it! Reminds me of the 20's for some reason.
I love the shoes, and she is a pretty lady, not 20 anymore, really beautiful, but she doesn't look confident in that dress, like she is trying to pull down the hem, so I think the whole outfit would look much better with leggings, trousers or even with jeans.
i have those boots :D 1) she should have worn her hair differently though.. 2) colors colors colors… i dont know i like things to match and they just arent in this outfit.. i mean pink cardigan, navy blue dress, black shoes, and brown bag? maybe if her shoes were navy blue? i dont know she couldve made an attempt or something but i still love the cardigan over dress look
pockets make the outfit! skirts should all have them, dresses to infact. and I can't tell whether the feathers are part of the dress or a scarf but I know I like them, would be quite figure flattering to the flat chested amoung us
i find it funny that people still react to things like 'bags and shoes not matching'. A black bag would have been too heavy for this outfit i find, but the black shoes just give her the right standing.
Same for "blue and black dont match". I like the combination a lot, because it is a subtle way to loosen up the 'bat factor'. And black can look brownish or blueish or greenish, depending on the light and the texture. A good way to play for the less daring of us.
