Details: Equipment blouse (thrifted), Highline vest (thrifted), Vero Moda pants (thrifted)
Thoughts: I loved the colours and silhouette of this outfit. Soothing and laidback respectively. I am very into longline vests and coats (or coatigans) right now, and find them to be a versatile replacement for more traditional toppers like blazers.
Details: Markantoine x Icone hoodie (thrifted), Everlane pants (thrifted), Arnold Churgin boots (thrifted)
Thoughts: I’ve been slowly accumulating more athleisure in my closet, but the truth is that I probably have more than enough given my actual needs (I wear it to lounge at home, and on walks/to the park). However, how could I resists this sequined hoodie? I mean, it’s blue, green and purple — all my favourite colours — and did I mention it’s sequined? Definitely made for someone with a magpie heart like mine.
Details: Jasper Conran bustier (Poshmark), BR belt (thrifted), William Morris x H&M dress (thrifted)
Thoughts: I called this my Maid Marian cosplay, and you know you see it. It was fun. Having fun with clothes is kinda my motto. Anyway, I like to find ways to de-glamify this bustier because it *is* quite dramatic but at the same time, too beautiful to save for a (very rare) special occasion. The design and construction are *chef’s kiss*. I’ve struggled to find “everyday” ways to wear it, but I will continue to try.
Details: Pieces & Co. x BR jacket (thrifted), Wilfred pants (Poshmark), BCBG belt (thrifted)
Thoughts: Mixed up two lovely patterns with a similar colour palette, added shoes in a unifying colour to hold them together, then finished with a pinch of contrast via a yellow belt. Recipe for outfit magic.
Details: Vince dress (thrifted), Noul coat (thrifted), Doc Marten’s shoes (swap), Liz Claiborne bag (thrifted)
Thoughts: This was a style experiment inspired by necessity. I put away all my winter shoes without checking the weather forecast and, of course, it dumped snow the very next day. These boots were my only readily accessible option, so I tried to build a somewhat “avante-garde” (for me) outfit around them. I’m still getting used to the dress+chunky boot formula, but it was fun to try.
Details: RACHEL Rachel Roy dress (thrifted), Kimchi Blue pants (thrifted), Rebel Sugar turtleneck (gift)
Thoughts: Tunic (or dress) over pants is another favourite formula of mine at the moment, and this iteration works very well due to the draping on the dress; it gives the outfit “movement” even when stationary. I also ended up layering a couple of necklace for extra drama.
