I've been wanting to do my own version of this recent ensemble, and here it is. I wore it earlier this week, out to dinner with a friend who is a sort of mentor. We talked about how I can get my mentality out of "victim" mode -- something I'm working on. It seems I need to not let other people's behavior and comments get to me. O_o
The peep-toe bootie sandals are a few years old and have a 5" heel with one of those island platforms. Kind of dated but they work under these jeans which stretch out so in a few hours this outfit was a bit more PPL than pictured.
The top is from last winter, Zara. It's thick sweatshirt material and quite boxy and cropped. The pea coat finishes things off, although I didn't need it. In the future, I need to pick tops that fit better under this coat. All the same I enjoyed wearing this outfit and plan to repeat this ensemble formula.
It occurred to me, while trying to get the coat over the bulky top, that one of the reasons it's so popular to throw a coat over your shoulders, is that many of today's tops don't fit very well under coats. (Batwings, drop shoulder, dolman, kimono, swing etc.)
Thanks for looking and commenting!
