everyday bold pieces

May 22, 2013 /

We styled our casual outfits around some statement pieces – CJ’s vintage trench coat, and Katherine’s yellow and blue leopard-print pants are parts of our looks that really POP! If you have pieces that really “make the outfit”, you can tone down the rest of your look and put focus on those items for more of an everyday look, while still looking sleek and chic.

      Thanks Anna! The quilted jacket has seriously been such a staple of mine for the past few weeks, with the weather being so crummy here! I’m always wearing spring outfits now, but I can’t go anywhere without some sort of overpiece because its too cold / wet outside.
      As for CJ’s trench, I was secretly SO jealous when he walked out of the vintage show with that sweet find.

        Haha, right on. Yeah, I often am jealous of awesome thrift goodies in the men’s section. I would totally wear a men’s section trench if it were the right size! šŸ˜€
