Dress & fur vest: Forever 21. Beaded top: Somewhere in London. Boots: Jeffrey Campbell. Rings: LF
Here’s the other way I tried on the lace dress from last week. I can’t remember where I got this transparent beaded top but love wearing it as a final layer. It has some swing to it so over the dress, it changes it’s shape from body con to slightly baby doll.
The original Phi Creeper boots are amazing, but this version by JC is definitely good enough for me. For those that asked, they are true to size. You can get them via LF or online here.
The cropped faux fur vest adds some texture and is one of my fave pieces to also layer, (especially over leather jackets). You can get a longer version here (which I’m 2 seconds away from ordering actually. It’s gorge).

    Top over bodycon? Stunning!! Love all the styling and the layering going on here.

    Also, that’s a brilliant idea when shooting indoor, getting lighting from the fridge… 🙂

    I really like coming to visit your blog because I find unique the way you can stratify different kind of style and make really cool outfits … I’m more basic in dressing, also because I’m probably 10 years older than you, but I find very instructive your fashion advice

    I can’t stop obsessing over the Phi’s myself. JC is doing work copying everyone ever right now.

    The big ring on your right hand, I just found something similar at f21 and had to get it for 5 dollars.
