woody

Wool coat: Zara (thrifted). Argyle jumper: Mens H&M. Jeans: Levis. Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell. Ski hat: JCrew. Bag: Thrift (DIY studded). Scarf (not seen). Gloves: NY street vendor
I love wood heels. These were just sitting there at the LF clearance summer sale. For those who’ve been reading this blog a while, you’ll remember when I wore them to the beach here (yes – the beach).
I’m wearing old levi’s that have a wierd boot cut hem so I cuffed them to keep them drain piped.
ps. Speaking of wood, I’ll post pics soon in these wood wedge clogs I found on sale. Twitter followers: you saw the cell phone pics when I bought them so your already a bit ahead with previews ; )
