Wearing: Contrasting
wearing: lace blouse: thrifted from Beacon’s Closet, beaded cape sweater: Forever 21, flare pants: Allen B., patent pumps: Zara, lindsey link clutch: c/o Elly Clay, earrings and bracelet: vintage Ralph Lauren, leopard cuff: Forever 21, rings: Forever 21 and gift from mother in law!, makeup: Mally perfect prep lip primer, Sephora lipstick in ‘it girl,’ Julie Hewett cream blush in ‘destiny.’
black and white together is a classic pairing that becomes instantly more geometric and chic when opposite shapes and lengths are at play. this cropped Forever 21 sweater is years old and long forgotten until i went on the hunt for a contrasting yet streamlined addition to this blouse. i love how it doesn’t weigh down the blouse and worn open shows the beading without being too covering.
it’s rainy in the city right now but that won’t stop me from sneaking away from work for an hour to head to the soho showing of Erica Weiner’s collection with the one and only sara zucker! erica’s jewels are both new and vintage, and all have this charming, old world feel that’s surprisingly modern. i can’t wait to see the baubles in person and share my favorites! xoxo.
