Blazer: Pencey via Shopbop
Sweater: Express cable knit sweater
Shorts: F21 distressed denim shorts (similar here)
Tights: Juicy Couture
Necklace: Express mixed metal chain necklace
Shoes: Steven by Steve Madden Grinnd booties (on ebay! can't believe I found these)
The best part about this outfit? I've realized that this blazer does so much better when worked into an edgier outfit. That way, the out-of-control fringe just looks "I don't care cool" instead of "I'm a disheveled mess poop".
Another great part: I have never worn these shorts. They're F21 from last year when I was itching for some Current/Elliott insanely-awesome suspender shorts... that I think I'm still wanting for this year. These, I thought, were my answer, but turns out they weren't. No good reason, either. Just wasn't getting that "feeling," ya know? Anyway, they work here, and I'm just happy I'm able to put them to use now.
You know. That is if this doesn't make me look homeless.
great outfit, you pulled it off well!
ReplyDeleteEeeek! I just bought a pair of denim shorts this afternoon! To wear with tights of course too!!!
