Late Afternoon: bundled up

Wednesday, February 23, 2011

bundled up

(boyfriend blazer-c/o Bird, blouse- All Saints, cape/scarf- Qi cashmere, pants- c/o American Apparel, shoes- Forever 21, bag-Forever 21, silver bracelet- c/o Style by Marina, sunglasses-YSL, blue ring-Crossroads)

Even though SF sometimes spoils us with glorious weather, it's still winter. No amount of spring shopping or dreaming will change that. I've already started wearing my breezy spring favorites, but I've been pairing them down with heavy knits and thick layers to keep warm.

Speaking of knits, there's nothing like finding the perfect chunky scarf, bonus points if it can double as a cape.
This one in particular gets extra bonus points for acting as a pillow on my flight to NYC.
Oh and the color is called persimmon, sounds much better than orange.

Absolutely Mrs. K said...: the red color looks great on you. Love the shape of the scarf. Your accessories are so bold but the red scarf makes it a lot softer. I wish I could see more of the blouse, the colors look so fantastic. I love shoes, nude shoes are always sublime, but I have never seen flat nude shoes. The bag is another tricky thing, I wouldn’t thought that it would match so well with your outfit. so you look magnificent.; February 23, 2011 at 7:30 AM
