This particular throwback needed a MAJOR update. The original, while a good concept, did not work. The jeans were too baggy and the boots did nothing to help that fact. And since this sweater is an extra large I needed everything else to be form-fitting to offset the oversized look up top. I also don't have the original jeans or boots anymore. (I might have the jeans saved in a box because they were one of my first designer buys after seeing that Emma Watson loved the brand, haha) I wore this a couple weekends ago to see
Beauty and the Beast with two friends.

I think this post sums up my idea of blogging, always making an effort, adjusting garments and always attempting to look better. You look dashing M!
ReplyDeleteI think the new jeans and boots looks great - it's a good way to reconfigure this!

What a nice update to the look! May we forever be rid of our baggy skinny jeans.

I like your latest version much more, it's keeping with the similar idea but everything looks a lot more streamlined! :) It looks like a lovely cosy casrdi in both outfits though.
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a great end to the week with a lovely weekend ahead!
