new addictions

by Karen Blanchard
3 October 2010

Army jacket: Zara (clearance). Dress: Thrift. Vintage Fryes (eBay). Hat: Jessica Simpson (clearance bin). Bag: Alexander Wang. Amor ring: Random midtown NY shop. Necklace: LF. Small crucifix: W hotel boutique.

Yep. I’m semi addicted to the army jacket. Why I never got one years ago is beyond me.
Here’s the ring I found about 2/3 weeks ago ish and posted on twitter when I got it. Join me (here) to see what pics of stuff I get before it appears on the blog (it’s instant on twitter).
I have a couple of old Fryes, like these ones posted before (here), but the ones I’m in above are definitely the faves.
What are you guys doing this Sunday? I can’t believe it’s October already.

    Fashion month makes September go by at record speed. I got some Frye boots on sale but they were too big. It still took me a year to get rid of them so I understand your favorite show being the Frye boot. That thrifted maxi dress is amazing!

    I love the jacket, something everyone should think about getting. I always love seeing your photos, because there always so beautiful! Sundays for me are usually relaxing days, I never have anything planned on Sundays. I know, the months are passing by so quickly, means closer to winter, which kinda I’m excited about!

    long story, but I miss it like crazy. I wake up and think ‘My army jacket would look great with this!’..oh, wait.
    You look insane in that Zara one

    I got that jacket earlier this year and have worn it all spring/summer. It goes with everything. I nearly brought a back up one when I saw it in the sale, but thought it was excessive, to buy the same coat again. Now I wish I had……nothing lasts for ever

    i love this look! i love how you styled the army jacket with such beautiful bohemian pieces rather than going down the harder rock look.
