high voltage

You won’t blend in wearing this… 

Jumpsuit: Foley & Corinna vintage (similars here, here  here). Patent leather brogues: Office (similar ones here and here). Bag: Balenciaga.  Skinny belt: H&M. Cross necklace: W store (similar style here). Shades: Ray Ban
Found this silk jumpsuit at F&C vintage section on Stanton (check out their shop, it’s gorge).  
I rarely wear all in ones but the colour of this one was so different to the norm I had to try it.  You can’t be a wall flower with this on!
I wore it with these patent brogues.  Next time I’ll try it with heels.

    I love the way you experiment such completely different styles and looks, so many “it” fashion bloggers seem to stick to the same look… I’ll be coming to NYC next week and I’d love some advise on what to wear – is the neon cambridge satchel out? How about high-lows? What are the coolest fashion stores I should do my shopping at? Should I go to the outlets? Help would be much appreciated.

    Fantastic style, and the color is great on you! I always appreciate a woman that dares!

    You look adorable! I don’t consider myself a fashion weiner––I once wore a bright yellow ’70s halter jumpsuit all over New York during summer and people were yelling taxi at me (har har)––but I don’t think I could pull that off. However, you look perfect! I’m impressed!
