Bustier: H&M. Jeans: Forever 21. Bag: Thrifted (DIY studded). Boots: Jeffrey Campbell for LF. Jewellery: T&V. Street vendors
I really love how florals have been updated this summer.
I was eyeing this bustier a couple of times at H&M, before finally trying it on and caving.
A blazer over it works beautifully.
ps. Thank you Modcloth.com for the style write up. I love that waist coat….

    Karen,

    Wow, those jeans look like the jbrand ink ones! Also, your studded cuff looks very similar to the made her think one available on shopbop. I love that bustier also! killer outfit and great job on the diy studding.

    I love the outfit, but how you got away with skinnies in the heat yesterday, I will never know..

  17. Sarah K. says:

    I agree with you about the florals – so many tiny floral prints are in stores, I’m trying desperately not to buy all of them!

  19. Anika says:

    I adore how all your pictures look. Do you take loads? They always look ‘Covergirl’ esque. I’m so lazy, I just awkwardly take a few and then rush off to do something…always in a hurry to do something, be some where. Regardless, gorgeous as always.
