Pop



Hello my lovelies. Here's that jacket top in action finally! 



Beaded top: Vintage. Jeans: Uniqlo.  Shoes: Prada (found similar version here). Clutch: Zara (similar here)

I wore it in the second most obvious way - with skinnies. The first in my head was with a pair of tatty shorts. Which I still will at some point. Another is layered over a thin drapy maxi skirt. 

Usually you'd see me in random ankle boots but I was going out (in a  car) so jacked up the height with  heels.  I'm glad I went with the bright orange clutch instead of the white one here you've seen before.  

pps. This weekend I'll go to a couple of shows for NYFW and will take loads of pics.  

See you soon.

  1. The top looks really nice and the crazy part is, people in the street will admire it on you and go on a wild goose chase in the stores looking for it so they can buy it! LOL
