Check Mate

June 4th, 2012

Vintage Scarf, Ray-Ban Aviators, J.Crew Shirt, Mulberry Bag, Nixon Watch, Elizabeth and James TEXTILE Jeans, Jeffrey Campbell Platforms, Orley “It’s Not Me, It’s You” Nail Polish

When it comes to denim, I’m usually one for skinny jeans, a billowy top and ballet flats. But once in a while, it’s fun to channel more of an Americana vibe with a gingham button-down, light-colored flares and aviators. The vintage scarf kept it from looking too wild west, even though the surroundings after a spontaneous road trip begged otherwise.

    Try a belt it’d make the tucked in shirt look a little better and less blah. Prettier eyebrows really STAND out in this photo set, huh..have you ever thought of letting your natural hair color be instead of bleaching yourself blonde? It might actually fit your face better…

  • Steffie

    Where is the bracelet from? Love the outift!
