Anatomy of an Outfit -- Skirting the Issue

This Free People skirt is everything. It's one of those pieces that feels like I have always had-- as if we were never apart -- life never existed without her. The skirt is so frilly and girly so that paired with the wolf sweater and the plaid blazer was unexpected and fun for me.

A Case of The Obsessed -- Iquitos Necklace

Let's be real, there are a lot of things I want, few things I need. This I need. This necklace was literally made for me (well not literally, but you get the point). Green, check. Gold, check. Sparkle, check. Giant, check.

Oh Anthropologie, what are you doing to me (besides making me a more fabulous version of myself)?!

Anatomy of an Outfit -- Alexa Chung is my Religion


I'm not usually a model groupie but a style groupie, maybe. Call me Kate Hudson and Alexa Chung Stillwater (who doesn't love an Almost Famous reference). Anyway, the skirt is Madewell, a brand which Chung has made a must have label. She has perfected the layering, mixing prints, hipster-chic look. I in turn tried to mirror my version of that.

So, over the Madewell skirt a Tucker leopard burn out blouse, and a vest with fleece collar. The boots are Michael Kors. And as for accessories --- the necklace is a vintage wanna be Tom Binns piece, a Kate Spade bow bracelet stacked with a giant gold watch.
