a day in the life

by Karen Blanchard
23 August 2010
Lunch time at work:
Urban Outfitters changing room: Texting girlfriend pics of cheap bug eye specs and (gifted) crochet cardigan that delivered at the office
After work:
Met up with a friend for treacle pud and custard at a British caff in the West Village.
The ride home:
Taking random shots on the tube (ok ok…the subway)
The walk home:
My 10 minutes (alone thinking time) from the station to the house
At home:
Threw jeans on the bed and realized my pile of flares is growing… I love them more than skinnies anyway
Crochet cardigan (gifted from Etsy store here). Flare jeans: 18th Amendment. Top: Urban Outfitters. Bag (not seen but it’s this green one). Wedges: Old Nine West pair. Shades: Urban Outfitters. Connector ring: Forever21.
Photography: All by me using iPhone app Hipstamatic
My one random day last week. Thought I’d share it here.

    Like the look and I totally agree on the flares. I bought a pair just a few weeks ago, love them. I wore them with a white (shorter dan yours) crochet cardigan last week. 🙂

  22. Le Temps d'M says:

    I like your cardigan 😉

  24. Nita-Karoliina says:

    Great post. I also prefer flares..

  26. Amalina says:

    You should do more posts like these! I’ve always been curious in bloggers’ daily life and what they do on a daily basis… jealous of your growing pair of flares! It is SO difficult to find a pair where I’m from, it’s impossible… I’ve searched high and low, and online options are rather pricey!

    Caitlin – an iphone app

    Fashion Snag – it’s a good time for it : )

    Sing – agreed. I didn’t plan on it either but when the cardi arrived that morning I flung it on and it worked.

    Amalina – maybe I will. I like the idea/concept.

    Nicole – really? why? it’s not as unusual as it may appear : )

    Fashion Chalet – and I meant every word!

    Haidee – it’s dirty. The platforms alone are the worst. Water in the tracks, rats and don’t even LOOK up at the ceiling!

    Aren’t the iPhone photo apps wonderful? 🙂
