jeans, heels, & sweater, jcrew; tee, f21
but more to the point...i took a break from cincinnati earlier this week to visit my old stomping grounds in the fine capital city of columbus (and the shopping opportunities therein contained). i used an incredible amount of restraint, but managed to pick up a few key pieces that i've been looking to add.
floral/polka dot tunic, patent oxfords, & military pins, f21; leopard print tights and leather-like leggings; express; gold 'givenchy style' chains and black strapless dress, h&m; striped sweater; banana republic (courtesy of a bday giftcard from my bff, abby (yes i know i'm twelve).
and for good measure, here are some weekly outfits making good use of my new purchases...
top & necklace, f21; leggings, express; heels, steve madden
dress, necklaces; h&m; oxfords, f21; tank, hanes
dress, necklace, tee, f21; heels, steve madden
sweater, banana; shorts, oxfords, necklace, f21
owing largely to f21's dress code, i've gotten quite adept at the whole strapless-dress-layering scenario and am totally loving it!
in response to newcomer questions about the burberry-esque studded heels, there are some previous posts that give the materials necessary for the project and a kind of play by play for their creation...however, if you'd actually like to re-create them, shoot me an email and i'd be more than happy to walk you through the details (i've done this for a couple of people already and am super psyched to see the results!)
while we're on the subject...i was at a bar the other night and a random guy professed love for my studded heels, and when i told him i'd done the dirty work myself, he promptly took me to the bar and paid for my (and my friend cassie's) drink. let it never be said that shoes are not an investment :)
