I've completely fallen for this lighter palette. Past Springs and Summers were spent stubbornly concealed and drowned in black. It's time to move onto something fresh. In preparation for Spring, I've been obsessing over blushes, nudes and anything romantic. The Acne suede leather fringe jacket in a dusty pink is on the top of my lust list. It's unbelievably playful but undeniably practical as I can see it as the perfect layering piece or thrown over Spring floral dresses and basics. Coming in at a close second are the Opening Ceremony printed bow heels, which I'm envisioning with silk frocks and ombré or watercolour tights. There's just too much gorgeousness here.

What I love most about these photos is how serious they turned out. No one could ever tell that right before this I was feasting on pancakes and Twizzlers for breakfast. Clearly I eat like a 5-year old. Cocoa puffs and ice cream for dinner pwease.

I'm wearing a vintage navy blazer, vintage wool trousers, brown socks, oxford heels, and a bejeweled Christopher Kane x Topshop shirt.

I've been wanting to pair some sweat shorts with thigh highs for a long time now. I love the slim and laid back look it creates on the bottom especially when balanced with a heavier and more voluminous top. Looks like I finally have a use for my sweat pants! This scarf is one of my favourites. It's actually a cape but I like to use it as a humongous scarf instead. I can wrap it around 3 times until my head disappears into its folds. It's my monster scarf. RAWR.

Wearing 3 layers of F21 tanks, H&M blazer, sweat shorts, 2 layers of sheer tights, Zara thigh highs, gray jersey scarf, black knit scarf/cape, Chanel purse.

Talking about details, last night the boy and I went to see A Single Man. It is a breathtakingly beautiful film of the protagonist's last day. Perhaps beautiful to the point of distraction. I found myself narrowing my attention on minutiae: the scenes bouncing between fully saturated to nearly monochromatic, how the last button on cuffs were left unbuttoned, the perfectly folded pocket squares, the pink cigarettes. If that wasn't enough visual candy, Jon Kortajarena plays an aspiring actor/prostitute from Madrid. Aline Weber also appears briefly in the film as a sultry student in Professor Falconer's class. So good.

Some time has passed since my last outfit post mainly because Boston has been absolutely frigid. I figured posting photos of me waddling around in down jackets and double layered pants would be frightening. So much so you'd feel the need to revoke my blogging privileges. Today was quite different--we reached a whopping 47 degrees F! Some Bostonians celebrated by wearing shorts. I, on the other hand, celebrated by wearing my new shoes. The celebration was cut short when I stepped in a mud puddle the instant I left home (note the mud in the close-up shot). Smooth. Anyway, if you're digging the shoes, you can get them here.
