Fall 2012 Outfits my style Style wearing my DIYs

Mad For Plaid… Navy + Gold + Embroidery = Oh My!

plaid pants, body chain, gold embroidered jacket

What I’m Wearing…

* Plaid pants ~ Juicy Couture {which I LOVE} c/o Shopbop ~ Seriously, new faves! {I’m always a sucker for a great pair of plaid pants, I can’t help it}
* Navy blouse ~ Green Label c/o Jigsaw London last year {see me wearing it here}
* Cropped band/military jacket by Gryphon… which I scored via GILT last year or the year before & this is my first time wearing it. Love. I think it must be inspired by this Dries Van Noten jacket with gold emboidery
* Body harness chain was sent to me from Lone Wolf Accents… and I love it too.
* Vintage sunglasses… gold hoop earrings… Joseph Mimi rings
* DIY gold sequin and gem bejeweled embellished pumps {click the link for the full DIY}

* Hair: low pony twist {would you like a hair tutorial or is it self-explanatory?} with fur elastic {which I’ve had forever}
* Nails: Bejeweled jewel tones manicure

I’m kind of in love with this outfit. I’m not sure what it is about it, but I love it. There are so many pieces in it that I love; when usually my outfits contain maybe only one favorite item, this has a handful. And in theory, it all sounded like too much, but when I put it on, it kind of worked out fabulously. I can’t help it, it’s a fave. I almost wish I wore different sunglasses with it though… this vintage pair isn’t quite right.

I just realized last night that it’s the middle of October and I have yet to put up one Halloween decoration. I usually have an entire cemetery out in our front yard by now but I’ve been so busy and distracted with the house situation that I’ve completely forgotten about it. It’s on my to-do list this week.
