I'm back! What have I been up to? Well, the stress of exams and seeing patients have been killing me lately. The past week and a half was pretty miserable. I felt robotic, alone, and tired. Without going into too many details, I just know that I really need to take care of myself better. This weekend has restored a huge piece of my sanity. I was treated to a spectacular Silversun Pickups and Muse show by my boy's family and some downtime with my family. Anyway, these pictures were snapped near my childhood home. The sun was shining and I was wearing my Alaia's and a pair of vintage shades. Translucent lilac, the circular frames, they're too perfect. I don't wear sunglasses often, but when I do, they have to be fun!

Wearing vintage trousers, H&M tee, F21 faux leather jacket, Azzedine Alaïa shoes, Oiseau Vintage sunglasses.

Edit: By the way, a lovely reader spotted me in the March issue of Cleo New Zealand and sent over a photograph of the small feature. Not too sure why my DIY is labeled as Givenchy-inspired, but these are all minor details anyway, right? Thanks Jill and Cleo mag! xo.
what a great outfit! so jealous of your chanel bag -wish i could afford one.

I'm glad you're feeling a little better... I know how tough things can get, and sometimes sometimes taking care of yourself falls to the bottom of your list of priorities. (and then that just makes things so much worse!)

Glad you are back! And keep taking care of yourself! Love this simple outfit. You never fail to look fresh and beautiful in everything you wear! By the way, I looooove the Silversun Pickups. My friend introduced them to me 4 years ago and I was obsessed ever since!

love this look, especially the sunglasses and shoes! u look so chic as always! :)

I know it's the shoes and sunnies that warrant extreme jealousy, and they do, but YOU SAW MUSE! How green I am right now.

When I force myself to look beyond this, I can see how utterly delectable the Alaias are. Proportion perfect look, this.
