today i wanted to counterbalance the toughness of my black biker bomber and boots with a nerdier touch... so i donned a twee floral dress and popped the lenses out of my sunnies. voila ~ instant geek chic!!!
i've had this leather moto jacket for 6 or 7 years now. when i first found it at neiman marcus in texas, it was decidedly outside my college-kid budget. but i loved it...
in the fitting room, while pondering the prudence of such a splurge, i happened to run into a friend's mom. i appealed to her wisdom, wondering what to do. she ordered: 'buy it. don't even think about it. a jacket like that? you'll wear forever. you'll never regret it.'
she was right.
wearing: fred flare frames, joie leather jacket, vintage vittadini dress (shortened since its last wear), the glamourai 45 rpm ring, bebe booties, follis bag

i have an almost identical jacket i bought on a weekend trip to florence when i was studying in italy last summer. definitely outside my college student budget as well, but... you know how it is... i'm pretty sure i hardly ate all weekend to afford it but definitely worth the money.
you look great, as always!
I have always wanted to do that with some glasses that I own...but never really had the guts to. Very cool, I like it. You rock.
no one can deny, that is the PERFECT leather jacket.
Those sunglasses, those heels, that bag -- too much fabulousity in one post!
beaaauuutiful. perfect shoes.
Love it! Awesome bag and shoes! <3
i love everything about this. those frames are amazing!
Great look and great glasses!!

Those are amazing sunnies, even without the lenses. And your friend's mom gave some sound advice! Some things are definitely worth the splurge!
wow i love the glasses!!!!!! and the bag is amazing too:)
Ahh! Love this cute outfit/specs/dress!!!! The hair looks so cute too! :)

Looks great, as always. (And you were right to get the jacket, of course!) May I inquire about your tights? It's so hard to find dark, velvety opaques with even color. I have a feeling you're going to tell me the ones you're wearing are the $50 Wolfords...maybe I just need to bite the bullet and shell out! But just thought I'd ask.
I enjoy your blog enormously -- best wishes to you!
Those sunnies are stunning, wow! Really makes your eyes pop.
Love the dress, tights and those boots too A++++
@ princess_of_mars: worry not, the tights are merely h+m!!! i always buy the highest denier, and they really hold up! best part is they sell them in two packs for about $12.
