Cupcakes and Cashmere

Patterned in Paisley

July 14th, 2011



Vintage Scarf, Marc by Marc Jacobs Sunglasses, Urban Outfitters Top, Theory Shorts, Coach Bag, Steve Madden Pumps

Yesterday morning was so gloomy that even the brightest pieces in my closet seemed overly cheery and saccharine. I stuck to an all-black ensemble, with a few patterned pieces, that kept it from feeling too drab. And while these pictures don’t do them justice, I love these tortoiseshell glasses I found this past weekend that are the exact balance of round-meets-oversized frames I’ve been looking for all summer.

    I dig how the backdrop contrasts with the outfit. Also, as a fellow scarf lover, may I say you are rocking the shit out of it?! Happy Friday!♥

    Great as usual! I’m so into that head wrap, I don’t know if I’m gutsy enough to try it though…

    I always tend to feel odd when i where all black in the summer. which ironically is a common occurrence because of the consistent gloomy weather where i live. you rock this look, thanks for the inspiration on mixing it up with patterns!
