skittles

Coat: Zara (thrift shop).  Tangerine clutch: Zara. Green jumper: Zara Mens. Harem jeans: H&M. Boots: All Saints. or get the suede version for Spring here. Ring: New Orleans street vendor. Shades: NY street vendor

Why wear black.  ok yes so it's on my feet but these All Saints are so faded (love that). I'll probably wear them soon with long stuff again like here.

I picked up this mens jumper from Zara's mens department. They had a row of gorge, oversized classic v-necks in primary colours. So perfect with anything because they're soooo basic.  They reminded me of skittles.  I got this kelly green one and a cobalt blue. 

You saw the top knot/clutch combo before in this post.

  4. Green and red always look sooo great together. Just did a post yesterday on my blog wearing the same colors.

    Cool outfit though. Colors bring the spring even though it's still crappy out.
