Continuation of the stripes theme. Modcloth was having a clearance sale and this blazer was a perfect find; I can imagine remixing it a million ways…with florals for a preppy vibe, nude palettes for a soft look, bright yellow for a retro feel, or in this case more black and white to create contrasting patterns.
I'm taking a break from doing an electrical engineering homework set to bring you this post. You know you're an engineer when you make an emergency stop to a nearby convenience store...for batteries for the graphing calculator. ;) I'll be glad when this semester's over so I don't have to think about capacitors, circuits, and math with imaginary numbers. There's a reason I'm a chemical engineer and not an EE; I can tackle the hardest of heat transfer profile problems but I absolutely cannot solve a simple circuit....hope everyone else is having a good week!

AH (I know second comment for the night). I had the option of doing this jacket for a giveaway but they were sold out on certain sizes! SO SAD, especially now that I'm seeing it on you! It looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS for the comment on my facebook! SO looking into that. Okay, I swear I'm not stalking your blog all night ... haha

I recently purchased a cardigan similar to this blazer from F21 with you in mind! I thought, "this is something Diya would buy" and since I love your statement pieces (all of them, tops, skirts, jewelry) I scooped it up.
