(American Apparel sexuali-tee, Forever 21 stirrup leggings, Zara leather jacket, vintage belt and bag, Dolce & Gabbana wedges)
Trotting back to my car after lazily eating a 4:00 lunch on Sunday at one of my favorite restaurants. Mahi-mahi sandwich on sourdough with avocado always works. I know this is probably the most basic of silhouettes ever and possibly more reminiscent of my style last year but somehow this belt and these wedges embolden me to water everything else down. Pieces like these are so ideal for mornings when I stare at my closet blankly, unwilling to sift and shove hangers around. Which actually happens a lot. Best quick fix is to zero in on one thing and force yourself to construct around it. If crawling back into sheets still warm from body heat isn't an option, of course. Which it really should be more often.

love the outfit....your hair looks different? Very nice! I went to get mine done as a grown out faded sunkissed type look but instead ended up with dark hair a light splices....damn hair dressers.
So i'm jealous of yours!
AMAZING!
I love how you are always able to make such comfy basics into such a wonderful silhouette with true personality. I never feel like I have "enough" without tons of layers, but you're style really eminates the "less is more" that I strive for. Thanks :)
basic nonetheless, amazing

.. not to mention that silver dress below is to DIE for
You're so adorable. Wished I had just one piece of your wardrobe. Keep on the great work, we love you. fashionofteens.blogspot.com

...meh...
Hair's looking a bit worse for wear...
Oh my god - I just realised something: I only come to this blog to read the negative comments (and the hysterical responses, always over-eager to defend whatever ridiculous thing Rumi is wearing). The bitchy comments are by far the most interesting thing about Fashion Toast. I know you Rumi fans will tell me not to come here if I don't like Rumi's style, but the truth is that this is the blog I love to hate. So, really, I should say: thank you Rumi. Thank you for providing countless hours of entertainment over these last couple of years :)
Keep it up, Rumi - the more annoyingly pretentious and/or vacuous = THE BETTER!!!
love the belt and purse! the simplicity of the outfit is amazing
Lovin' your outfit. I'm drooling over your Chanel bag, Zara leather jacket, and those Dolce & Gabbana wedges (which are crazy chic). I love what the vintage belt is giving the tee a little more style. =)
those shoes are dopeee. really love your style and your blog.

Love everything! B&W never looks bad, a classic forever!
boring boring boring.
I think that with those shoes you can wear anything and it'll look fab, they're INCREDIBLE. Wish my boyfriend had the taste of your boyfriend and offer me presents like that too :) Unfortunately he hates wedges, so that's unlikely to happen any time soon...
Sounds like the perfect day you had there!
classic is the way to go! and i seriously ADORE your wedges.. they look SO comfortable.

You always look so stunning that I never thought you had that prob of not finding anything to wear.
For the last wek I been so lazy, just wanting to crawl back into bed and not wearing anything except stuf that is soft, war and furry.
WOW! I LOVE the watchband belt!
- http://21Arrondissement.com
out of the maybe three times i've commented here, two of those times were when you've worn the d&g wedges.
i may be infatuated, and i may have to get them...
You're right of course but sometimes the most basic of outfits can be made by great stand-out accessories. Those d+gs are divine!
love the jacket & the bag!
also loving your hair with your natural colour growing out!

If I had a chanel bag, I would hold on that tight to it.
Love the low slung belt, Bx

these pictures are beautiful .. i see you are so in love with your new wedges idont blame you .they are stunning
wowww, those wedges and the bag!!!
Hi Rumi,
do not apologize for a basic silhouette. I like this look, because you appear really relaxed and comfortable in what you are wearing that day! And should not our clothes support our emotions during the day? (Okay, at least a little^^).
Love, Lilly :D
Why does everyone always find their perfect leather jacket in Zara? I share the same name as that damned shop and yet their perfect leather jacket constantly eludes me!
I am so jealous of your wedges... they are perfect. Love the suede and the softly rounded edges.
And yes.. 4 o clock Sunday lunches are always essential.

i wonder what you would wear in a colder climate like canada, sweden, or russia? I know you like your fur but hmmmmmm
I just love the whole outfit! It looks really amazing!

if i could wish ANYTHING in this world for my b-day/christmas, that would be your warderobe :| seriously, you style is killin' me. i get all inspiration from you, keep it up!
You can't go wrong with your choice of clothes as usual but I must say your smoky eyes and nude lips really suit your rebel image.
Totally understand the "closet blank syndrome"..you can't always push the fashion envelope. Sometimes you look the best in the more simple silhouettes/outfits. And this is a great example. Bet the Boyf felt you looked the best ever in this....
you look great!
i've been following your blog for some time now..and this is probably one of my favorite outfits. it's not trying too hard.
good stuff.

Rumi, you have a unique knack for finding empty streets to get photographed in. I love it. :)
And this outfit is beautiful. I like simple and uncomplicated. It looks natural and effortless. Great job!

gurrrrrrl you are killin' them with that belt. whatever it is you do, don't stop doin' it
Your body is peeeeeeeeeeerfect! I love your outfit.
Hey Rumi,
It's always fun to see your more "creative" outfits - the ones in which you throw together the strangest things and somehow make it all work in a weird way. But I love it when you wear outfits like this - the easily palatable, incredibly flattering outfits that draw attention to the body instead of to the clothing items themselves. You're the master of this latter style of dress.
Nice hair, too.
What I like: the leather jacket, leggings and the tshirt (not to mention the Chanel).
What I don't like: the belt that doesn't go and the wedges. I would have killed the belt and done some classic Fryes. I don't know why, but the richness of the suede on the wedges and the matte black of the leggings kill me.
This is the first time I leave a comment but I just wanted to say that I love all your looks especially this one. I love the Jacket!
absolutely agree about zeroing in on one item and going from there, I find myself grabbing a pair of wedges first then piecing together an outfit ; ) lovely blog darling.

beautiful look, wearable and classic. Love the vintage belt plus the zara leather jacket.
You look fabulous!

ahh your legs!! you have perfect legssssss.
WHY THE FUCK ARENT YOU A MULTIBILLIONAIRE MODEL!?!?!??
sooo pretty and such a perfect style
the belt really does make the outfit. although its more of a stylish-that-blends-in than anything that would be really eye-catching.
you look awesome!!

You look f**in amazing. I specially love the American apparel sexuali-tee.

I dress the same exact way, AROUND one item I really want to wear. I like this "watered down" look very-much-so. I find it quite perfect, not watered down at all. J'ADORE, dear!<3

Hi Dear!
I know the exact feeling of just finding that one tee that you can add and dress down with anything, Keep rockin' it dearie, your gorgerous and lovely! Keep tapping into your creativity!

Your hair looks so good in these! Love the jacket and shoes too.x
i loove the shots, you have such great style xx
Love the purse Rumi... we can always count on Chanel! It definitely makes getting dressed much easier, especially on days when you don't even feel like getting dressed in the first place :) The addition of the leather jacket doesn't hurt either, especially one of soft texture like yours. I'm still in the search of the perrfect "imperfect" black leather jacket for myself.. Hopefully I find one soon to wear before new years come around!

you look effortlessly lovely, as usual.

omg rumi, the first outfit which doesn't work. the belt is in the wrong position, it looks like your hip is as wide as your waist and it makes your legs look shorter and your upper body very tall. bad. usually you look so good.
I love your jacket. I just bought a leather jacket myself and I wear it all the time - looks great!
hello.love your blog.you're amazing.perfectly thin and so beautiful.wish i were like you.I have this blog,and I don't think you have the time to comment on a nobodies blog,but mayhe someone checks it out,and hopefully,likes it.cheers.
