Completely Gratuitous Outfit Post
{it's all about the bow well, & the sequins}


{@ work with the iMac photobooth cam}

the lighting sucked today but I am in LOVE with this outfit.
























What I'm wearing
Vintage Ellen Tracy Purple Blazer . . .seen here and here
Black Pencil Skirt: Forever 21 . . .seen here
Gray T Shirt: Forever 21
Bow: This was my grandma's and it's actually a clip on neck bow tie ....but I used it to cinch the jacket {kind of like those cinchers from the 80's/90's} BUT SO MUCH BETTER. I must admit that I am in LOVE with this! The jacket was a bit too boxy so this really made the look much better.
Sequin neck scarf: Vintage. This was actually once a fitted sequin dress that I cut up and I've worn in the past as a skirt over leggings but it's so old now that it's lost all of it's stretch and works best as a round scarf. I love this too. Sorry for all the back patting but I just love this outfit!
Shoes: Jessica Simpson . . .seen here
Sunglasses: Chanel ...seen here

{in desperate need of a salon visit. . . man am I lazy!}

Happy Friday Lovers!

Brilliant idea of using the bow to cinch the blazer, which is gorgeous by the way. I don't blame you for loving the outfit - it's fantastic!!

But seriously, you are awesome. loves the outfit and that bowtie rocks it. happy weekend!

Leigh said...

Siljesfashion said...

Killer outfit! Love that jacket, its really amazing.

Dooder City said...

I love the sequins scarf with the purple blazer. So adorable. About the bell bottoms, I am totally looking into it. The other day I wore my boyfriend's jeans out and they were so comfortable! It was snowing and I wore them with rubber duck shoes so it looked very 'farmlike' but I am so used to wearing tight clothes that the loose pants were a breathe of fresh air:)

First Lady of MADE said...

this outfit is so smart...i mean c'mon now, cinching a jacket with a bow tie...so GENIUS! you look great!

Iheartfashion said...

So chic!
I love the sequin scarf and your grandmother's bow. Fantastic!

ambika said...

That sequin scarf--and the story behind it, is amazing.

miky said...

ASSHOLE BOYFRIEND said...

hautepocket said...

I just got the BEST pencil skirt from Forever 21 and wore it Friday. My very hot coworker said, "You're looking very couture today," which was a great compliment, because besides him being hot, the skirt cost $12. Muahahaha. I love being female. :)

DaisyChain said...
