Layers & twists.

Black thrifted at Crossroads boyfriend coat, Tan American Apparel top and denim shirt, Silver HM necklace, Rust c/o 2020AVE twisted mini skirt, Bracelets: Forever 21, c/o LUXLA, CC Skye, c/o JewelMint, Tan Sam Edelman Valin wedges, Brown c/o Swellmayde envelope clutch, Brown Karen Walker Number One sunglasses.


Finally get to share with you one of my prized possessions -- this beautiful boyfriend coat I found at the Crossroads Holiday Party, definitely embodies Parisian Chic.  Decided with this outfit to have fun layering, I've really been inspired by Chriselle Lim (a truly aamazing fashion stylist and blogger!) who recently made a Youtube video on layering, def check it out ;).
Underneath is an AA denim shirt and over it put a lightweight loose jersey top, and I always love adding accessories, so a choker necklace is a must underneath the collar.  Thought of having a little arm candy party going on too.  And best part of the outfit is this gorgeous skirt from 2020AVE -- it has this unique shape to it with the twisted fabric in the front and love the vibrant and rich rust color.  Definitely check out 2020AVE as they have really amazing pieces in addition to something I find very important in shopping -- affordable clothing!  Coveting these few items right now for spring (keeping up with my New Years Style Resolution for bright colors) ;): 1, 2, 3.
Also, I am soo happy I finally got my Karen Walker number one sunglasses -- I've been eyeing and coveting it for SO long, and finally decided to add it to my wardrobe.  Can't wait to wear these babies for spring/summer! :)
  Which btw, I am yearning for more sunshine and warmth..lets hope for early spring! :)
♥, Kathleen.
