Nov 03instant vintage : 11.2009 : MOV 004: Lace & Breastplates (moment of vanity)

The hallmarks of today’s outfit were a too-short dress saved only by a pair of questionable tights and/or a lace-ish blazer and a huge breastplate of  a necklace that I pieced together from an array of vintage necklaces.  Somehow it all worked.  At least I think it did…depends on whether or not HR saw and deemed me to be inappropriate.  Meh.

It only looks like it weighs 10lbs.  It doesn’t.

Wearing:
F21 Everything
Self-Designed Janglicious Breastplate
Acne Wedges

    I love this entire outfit! It’s very sophisticated and chic. And I really, for seriously, want that ginormous 20,000 layer necklace.

    You look gorgeous. I love how this is a monochrome outfit (or, it looks like it on my screen – I can’t tell if the skirt/dress is dark blue or gray) but doesn’t look boring at all because of all the textures, the shoes, and the necklace.
