I took advantage of Melbourne's sunny weather yesterday for a stroll along the Yarra River. This lovely vest from Faddoul provided just the right amount of warmth when layered with my signature stripes and staple black pants. These amazing silver capped beauties were comfortable enough to be worn all day and are definitely my new go to heels.

Oh my gosh I kinda love this.
ReplyDeleteWould go for a similar look with the stripes combo but I also think it would look great with a leather dress (to break up the black) or a loose tee shirt dress.

This would be the perfect addition to my work wardrobe! :)
ReplyDeletePair it with a crisp white blouse and pencil skirt and it would be far more interesting than my standard blazer.

OH MY GOSH!
ReplyDeletelook at that collar, this is so perfect! xx
Liked both pages and followed both too.
ReplyDeleteI would style it with Tony Bianco's beautiful Adele pumps (starting to fall in love with the capped toe pumps!), a plain white shirt or maybe patterned one day and statement/floral pants. Or maybe a dress. I honestly will have a million outfits if I win.
So thank you, for the chance.
