(secondhand blouse and sweater, Forever 21 shorts, LD Tuttle boots, Noir ring on chain, vintage Chanel backpack)

Well I guess I'll give it until June 21 to actually become summer. Though the sporadic heavy rain and thunderstorms are entertaining, I'm really not sure I believe the Trader Joe's cashier who tried to convince me it was actually hailing too. This shirt and a random pair of shorts was a minor uniform last year, now I'm reminded why. So comfortable. Heading to LA in a couple hours, yeahh.

The weather has been the same in New York really warm for a couple days and then cloudy, rainy for more days. It's kind of unbareable, but at least we're getting closer to real summer! Love those LD Tuttle boots, their shoes are great.

I really like that top. So pretty.

Channel bag... wow.

The Magic Doll said...

Nothing like a classic chanel backpack to glamourise a good old comfort outfit (although by the look of those amazing boots "comfort" is to be debated).

oooh! I spy the new turquoise shiny shiny!! Its like the teeeensiest pop of color in the first couple photos and I love it :)

Love the first pic of course (that angle!), and the Chanel bag... the interlocking C's is one of the only blatant logos that I can handle.

Where do you get your Noir jewelry?

Anonymous said...

i'm not too sure what you've done with your hair. it looks cut and lightened. but i have to say that you look absolutely spectacular. it has really brightened up your face, and it actually gives you a kind of glow. the light hair really suits you.

thank you for being you and so anti-trend. it really is inspirational.

i'd love to hear more about your life outside fashion. especially since i read that article about you majoring in political science which is what i'm going into after the summer, so i'd love to read some of your thoughts on that.

It was hailing, maybe two days ago. For like. ten minutes. complete with thunder.

And then it became mildly warm again. I don't get this weather at all.

Ugggh seeing those boots again makes me want to wail! I had the exact same pair and wore them into the ground. Unfortunately they were stolen but FORTUNATELY LD Tuttle is putting them back into production this coming fall! Hey hey heeey. You look delish as always.

Anonymous said...

The cardigan is positively yuck! The outfit is very generic and the bag makes me want to stab myself in the eye. On the plus side, the boots and the back pack are cute.

Kat said...

I love how the draping cardigan lengthens out your look, adds a certain elegance.

styleantagonist said...

1st picture, you looked great. The make-up works well, very natural. Somehow, entirely the whole ensemble looks not too flatering on you, though its a decent one. Anyway, styling is very subjective. Some may say its nice and some not. It depends on how much attention one can caught. No worries ;)

in the first picture you look xtremely beautiful!

You look SO pretty in the first picture... and the blouse is cute...

...but I don't understand this cardigan [below the knee & hood?] - and why are you still carrying this forever 21 bag?

I love your style but this bag is the stuff of nightmares (I feel comfortable saying this because i've said this before) !!!
