This was last Thursday's outfit:
The sweater, which I've profiled before, is Karoo Mark Eisen. It was originally $300.00 at my (now-defunct) best-kept secret but I got it for $80.00. It's cashmere and the funnel sleeves just thrill me. The skirt is vintage Rae Phillips, $40.00. It's this excellent wool wrap skirt with 2, original mother-of-pearl buttons and inside snaps. It has beautiful drape and it's so timeless. The boots are Franco Sarto vegan. Every girl with skinny calves needs a pair of these because they suck to your legs no matter the width.

I didn't know Franco Sarto did vegan. That's so cool, because vegan boots—cool ones, anyway—are tough to find.
ReplyDeleteI love funnel sleeves on you! And the t-neck makes you look so snuggly.
Cool outfit. If I ever get a boob job I am bringing a photo of you to the doctors office. Aye Curumba!

I love sleeves like that.
ReplyDeleteBargain cashmere is the best kind!
ReplyDeleteYou are rockin' that sweater six ways to Sunday. All I can say is, "Wow."
ReplyDeleteThe sleeves are amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow, vegan boots!!!
ReplyDeleteHow amazing!!!!
You look really nice and the sweater is very pretty with those sleeves.

can't go wrong with cashmere top :) i love that cut on you. Sleeves are nicely shaped. Now what colour is that lip gloss/stick? That's lovely.
ReplyDeleteThat sweater would've been worth $300 ... it looks amazing on you, lady.
ReplyDeleteThat skirt with that lipstick is heaven on you. Love every element of this outfit. If I were you I would wear it often.
ReplyDeleteHey All: I feel I should clarify about the vegan comment - since I don't want to be misleading in any way. FS doesn't call these vegan boots (this being one of a number of styles constructed out of the same fabric) but they are fashioned out of man-made materials and are worn for this reason by a number of my veggie friends.
ReplyDeleteE: Thank you!
Hammie: That is one hell of a compliment!! I think you should give the credit to Freya, though. That's the co. that designs my fave bras.
Thanks W, me too!
Skye: The only kind for my budget!
Dr. M: I know I'm on track when you comment. Thanks :-)
Andrea and Seeker : The sleeves are amazing until you reach for something over a plate of food and get everything everywhere :-)
Songy: Glad you like it. The colour is Bobbi Brown Cassis (No. 28). It's a fave. Then I put some weird lip gloss on top of it to make it shiny.
Sal: Thank you. I just recoloured my hair (crazy colour) and I don't think anything in my wardrobe is going to work anymore. Eeeek. Hair may be changing again.
Thanks Belette: I will, on your advice!
I really think bell/or funnel sleeves are so sexy and attractive- the allow my torso to appear longer and leaner than originally!
ReplyDeleteI got a pair of shoes once that normally go for $180 but got them for $40-- I am always bargain hunting.
s great top!!
