solar flares

Bell bottom jeans: Seven for All Mankind. Top & Shades: Urban Outfitters (clearance). Bag: LF (sale). Wedge sandals: Nine West. Hat: Vintage.
Been after a black leather fringe bag for ages and picked up this during the LF 60% off sale. You already know about my fringe fixation like this jacket and this (still my fave fringe one).
The bells are the latest addition to the flares pile and yes I'll say it first: the top is a frequent visitor here.
ps. Thanks for entering the Forever 21 shoes giveaway. You lot are too bloody quick. The winner has been contacted ;-)

  2. I *love* those jeans, they are the perfect bell bottoms! Still searching for my perfect pair - it's so hard to find bell bottoms when you're short! The "bell" part always ends up getting hemmed off!

  6. I wish I had looked at your blog, though I had an exam .. I would SO have LOVED to win those MiuMiu-look-alike-mary-janes .. You don't happen to give away a second pair as well? :p

    But seriously, I love ur blog and the fringe bag is awesome!

    Btw, how tall are you? I have (shoe)size 8/10 as well and I'm 188cms (6.1ft), I'm having a hard time finding long sleeve dresses that are 'long sleeved' enough (yes, I'm a sucker for long sleeve minis with pockets as well ;))

    Thx!
    Love,
    Oh'

  7. Great flares! You pull off a bohemian look so well. I'm not usually into fringe, but it suits some people so perfectly!

  36. Ashley - I'm the other way around. I find it hard to get jeans that are floor sweepers.

    Miss Oh - sorry just the 1 pair for the giveaway.

    Thehautepursuit - you know I had to get em.

    MissZuri - and a good black leather fringe bag is so damn hard to find.

    The Queen of Hearts - thank you and I'll tell him. It's teamwork though: he takes the pics then I do all of the editing work.

    Thx everyone for the comments!
