Gun Metal

I missed the sequins. Too many weeks (months?) have passed without giving them a breather.

Jacket: Vintage mens. Similar vibe from All Saints Laurel jacket. Sequined top: Vintage. Jeans: H&M men. Flats: Topshop KINGDOM Ghillie. Love their laser cut version. Check their snake print one (on sale). Nordstrom has a similar pair too. Bag: Chanel wallet on chain (I’ve bought from this site before). Shades: Ray-Ban foldable wayfarers

Finally the weather has been ok to wear the above silver blouse. The cuffs on it just kill me. They just do not make them like that anymore. Such a played out saying but still true.

The flats were a cave last week. The Aquazurra Christy flats almost got me but these are such a good dupe that I thought: “f**k it” why bother?

ps. Shop updated.

And this is why the “trophy” beaded things are awesome…bust them out and mix it up!
Brilliant Karen..

  That’s how I like to do it! I feel like they were almost meant to be worn with jeans

You and me have the same feelings about the Christy flats. Today I purchased a pair lace up flats from asos with a suede upper look before finding out about the topshop pair. Now I’m considering getting those too lol at least the kingdom is real leather.
Love the choice of jeans! I should seriously start perusing the men’s section.
Great work as always Karen!

  LMK if you cave on the Topshop ones. I reckon they’ll break in well being leather too. I’m always going on about the mens section. GO!

How comfy are the flats? Not too flat? Sometimes it makes my feet sore when the shoes are too flat.
