{ costume of the day } concrete spring

{ from left to right, i'm wearing my: steampunk cibo, knuckle hugger, and doublewide desperado rings }

today is one of those dreamy spring days when shorts and sandals make perfect sense with a sweatshirt-y blazer. this one was sent over from modcloth; i love that it has a high-design cut, but is made in an everyday material. for much the same reason, i'm excited by these waxed parachute fabric shorts, which i found last week at by george in austin ~ one of the most excellently edited stores in the country. i imagine i could get my entire wardrobe there (plus a little vintage, of course) and be perfectly happy. by the by, i just realized i'm accidentally continuing on this week's avian theme with my feather-print tank. it must be something in the air!

{ d+g sunnies, gentle fawn blazer (courtesy of modcloth), the glamourai rings + cabochon crucifix necklace, F21 top, unconditional shorts, dries van noten shoes, vintage clutch }


these shoes came from last springs's dries van noten collection ~ one of my favorites (though i love whatever he does). i chanced upon them on sale in the middle of winter and have been so excited to break them out; finally it's warm enough! try not to mock me, but i'm tempted to wear them with tons of toe rings this summer ~ crazy, i know.
