friday's fancies #17: outfit inspiration.

friday's fancies #17: outfit inspiration.





this week's friday's fancies theme is outfit inspiration, & when i saw this little number on pinterest, i simply couldn't resist recreating this look with my own personal twist. i love how this outfit has an overall sleek feel, but with edgy, fun accessories. this is something i would wear to work, for sure. for my version, i chose these navy whistles audrey skinny trousers because i like their structure & pocket detailing. while it appears the girl in the photo has on a kelly green cotton cardigan, i chose this marc by marc jacobs michaela silk dragon top because i simply adore it. that collar detailing is out to win my heart, i tell you. the superette leopard scarf is an excellent dupe for the one in the photograph, although i would like to have found a silk or satin one. i absolutely adore the bejeweled flats from aldo - though i did consider using some fantastic loafers i came across. however, these conveyed more of the vibe i was going for with this look. the jessica simpson sunnies are similar in style & shape, & the navy color is awesome to boot. they are definitely something i'd like to add to my collection. i think the yves saint laurent gold plated rope-inspired cuff & the bond edith envelope clutch complement one another perfectly. top this outfit off with a chic, undone updo & nude, glossy lips, & you're ready for anything the work day may throw your way.

Justin had to turn on the air conditioner again last night.  It's October 26 - doesn't that mean the heater can stay on? Doesn't...
