THE SHOULDER

By purplekicks · November 25, 2009 · 4 Comments · 58 Views

Finally got my hands on Zara's Balmain knock off. I had no intention of getting it, but when I saw it two weeks ago I decided it was worth the splurge (I'm in college, yes, Zara is a splurge). Took some hunting down, but prey like this are worth a little frustration. Makes all the other shoulders in my closet look so wimpy and inadequate.

Underneath I wore an open cardigan, my elastic harness, a mesh tee, and a tank.

TRIBUTE

The workhorse boot. Take away all my shoes, but please, leave this one pair. Afterall, the best shoes are always the ones that you can wear every day (without destroying your feet). Still need to take my black pair to the cobbler. Desperately desperately need to take them to the cobbler. The heel taps wore down months ago, but I keep prioritizing different purchases before fixing the boots. You can fix boots anytime, but you can't find, say, a sick pair of Balenciaga platforms on sale whenever. Hopefully will fix them this weekend!

SILHOUETTE

Wore five immensely cozy layers today. It went like this: l/s thermal, s/s tee, l/s asymmetric cardigan, sleeveless cardigan, oversize wool cardigan, and a scarf, just to be safe. Creates a strange, droopy cocoon shape from the back. The two cardigans worn in the middle are really only good for layering; I can't handle that much softness alone - always need to throw something more structured on top, even if it's just a thicker cardigan like today.
