the bow








photos by Maya Villiger from turnedout.tv

The creamy pink socks are actually leggings from the H&M that I cut off! The difference is that when you cut them off yourself you can choose at what hight to cut them off, and when like me, you choose to cut them off high as possible you can make them slouch down, giving the socks a very nonchelant powdered and beddy look istead of the more "strickt" and "sophisticated" look the most black thigh high socks have.

The Sweater is a Navy blue vintage steal from Ebay, the bow and sweater are embellished with little creme colored pearls, too cute, and too comfortable, I noticed that I started to move away a bit from black and collect more and more Navy, like my boots, and I love setting Navy Blue against soft pink,

I love that bow sweater. What a great find! Plus, usually those things are only in black or something so finding it in navy makes it even more unique. I also like your idea of cutting off leggings to make slouchy thigh high socks, etc.

I love the socks. I'm a huge sock fan. Is it still pretty warm in NYC to not wear pants?! So lucky! So cold here in Vancouver :(

Very cute outfit, love the sweater with that skirt!

Jessica said...

Yes I love the refreshingness of the navy boots and the creamy pink leggings cut into long socks instead of the typical black. The embellished bow sweater is so cute!

As for the Anna Sui for Target line, I'm sure you can find it at the clearance racks of some Target stores if they haven't sold out yet. I was just lucky enough to find something that I liked as I scanned the racks.

Freya said...

Great socks/cut up stockings. And that bow is totally cute!
