winterized

Fur jacket: Vintage. Velvet/silk jacket: Seen here. Found a similar one online here. Harem jeans: H&M. Beanie & gloves: Street vendor. Boots: Jeffrey Campbell Fringe bag: Gypsy Nation
***
There is absolutely no way that I'm waiting till Spring to wear this velvet jacket. Come to think of it, I actually like the look of it with a skinny jumper underneath and boots. God - I could wear this every bloody day!
***
Michael calls the boots geisha because of the solid wood cut out wedge. I sort of see the association. Either way it's a flash of wood when wearing darks - a bit like these Chloe Sevigs but I can walk longer in the Jeffreys.
ps. The 2 ASOS finalists who go head to head to try and win the competition are announced tomorrow...Thank you EVERYONE who voted for me. If I am chosen though, I fear being up against the biggest blogger in Norway who since day 1, gets (seemingly) millions of votes on every round and therefore wins ....God help me.
