WhatIWore:

When:
January 10, 2012

What:
Hat: Target
Necklace: J. Crew via ebay
Blouse: thrifted Dior
Sweater: Betsey Johnson (gift from my internship days)
Jeans: Earnest Sewn
Shoes: LL Bean Signature
Lipstick: Poppy King for J. Crew

Where:
Afternoon at the studio

Why:
I think it’s fair to say that I am not afraid of wearing bright colors. I thrive on it! I love this shirt and sweater combo (which I also wore for the cover of my book) and I like how the red necklace looks on top. Instead of going a ladylike route, I played it all down with a favorite pair of dark denim flares.

I was playing around with this hat and ended up pulling it on from the back (while holding my hair up) and the end result is a little… Downton Abbey, dontcha think?
