back to the old-school wardrobe_remix shots in the hallway outside my apartment! off to go to the post office, and go thrift shopping. found a few gems (including an awesome knitting book of british sweater designs from 1982!).
! i got a LOT of looks from people concerning this outfit. very amusing! i feel really confident in it, though.
-tiny acid wash levi’s jacket: thrifted in florida. i probably wear this a little TOO often, but it’s my signature piece at the moment.
-tunic length tanktop: american apparel
-acid wash skirt: beacon’s closet. someone hacked it off with scissors. i like it like that so it’s staying that way.
-white rhinestone and studded leather 80s belt: thrifted in florida
-chartreuse green button grandma earrings: urban outfitters years and years ago
-patchwork-look needlepoint tote: thrifted in florida
-white peeptoe flats with green and red trim and a rainbow ribbon across the top: killah, found for £10 at a miss sixty sample sale off brick lane, london, last summer.

allyDid you find a Starmore book? What is the title of the book– I must know!
You are the acid wash queen. So awesome.

AmberI love this. You’re going to be singlehandedly responsible for the acid wash resurrection.

madam0wlI should send you the copy of Stitches in Time by Sue Bradley I got in a RAOK swap last year… you would likely get more use out of it than I ever will!
The skirt compliments your jacket so nicely!

triciaally: no, actually, it was this book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0345343417/104-1061711-0043163?v=glance&n=283155
a book of sweater designs from designers who sold their sweaters and knitwear at local markets in london, and the like. it’s very 80s but i love many of the designs!
