DIY brocade skirt, forever 21 sweater, amrita singh necklace, thrifted michael kors shoes, london fog bag via overstock.com
So these were the Michael Kors shoes I thrifted (and mentioned earlier in a blog post)...aren't they amazing? Brand new and found at Savers for $25...the thrifting gods were obviously with me that day because not only did I find this pair of shoes but also found a faux leopard fur vest for J., my thrifting partner-in-crime, for $15. I know that this outfit didn't reallllly match with the shoes but I had to freaking wear them! I had to....
In the process of editing my close I realized how much "repeats" I have... as in I have 3 gold brocade coats and a bunch of random useless stuff that I've squirreled away for no good reason. The brocade stuff are here to stay but I might be making a gigantic donation to Savers or Goodwill pretty soon.
I won't be typing much today as I'm kind of behind on my school-related stuff for this week! I still have around six chapters to read for analytical chemistry and I still have to figure out the polymath code for my reactor course. Gross...wish me luck!
PS. yeah the expressions are always goofy because Tim's always trying to make me giggle while taking the photos...and so some times I break out in laughter and some times I give him the finger.

  21. High-larious!

    I think this is the most brilliant colour combo yet, honestly. Who cares if it clashes... I don't think it really does, though. That pop of mint at the neck... sea foam, more like... holy.

    And the boots. YES. YES, PLEASE.
