socrates in love

January 3, 2010






Corey Lynn Calter skirt. Beth Bowley Cardigan. FCUK shirt. Chloe shoes. Necklaces from F21, Lorraine Pennington, J.Crew

Romantic detailing has suddenly been impulsive when getting dressed. Figured that putting together a bunch of neglected pieces in my closet within the same color range would somehow achieve my sugary goals. Felt like I had to edge it up with darker and edgier accessories before crossing over to saccharine. Also, Taghrid's obsession with putting big bows in one's hair started to rub off on me.

Besides nonsense clothing talk, I managed to catch the flu right before I come back from my extended work vacation. Expect a lot of complaints on twitter.

    ahh! i love this look! it's so sweet and innocent! the shoes with the outfit remind me of a little girl wearing ankle socks with mary janes, but with a lot more edge of course. i adore the color palette and all the lovely detailing!! i'm a sucker of bows too :D

    Just wondering if you got those Forever necklaces recently? I love the cross one. Fab shoes but I mean they're Chloe so of course.

    Haha ever since I started selling oversized bows and ribbons on my webshop I like them too. But I've always been a fan of headgear.
