In an effort to add a little variety to my already plentiful collection of black pants (really, who needs this many?), I ordered these drop-crotch trousers from asos.com. I love the high waist, silky material, and tapered leg, and since they're so "trendy" I kept the top simple and focused on accessories.
Shirt, Express; trousers, asos.com; shoes, Giuseppe Zanotti; Indian bridal necklace, bombayfashions.com; vintage earrings and pendant necklace.

Due to a larger than expected bonus, I took the unrequited shoe yearning as a sign rather than a test, and bought the slightly trashy, over-the-top, waaayyy out of my budget shoes I'd been obsessing about.Buyer's remorse? Not even a little bit.
Have you ever been unsure about a purchase? Did you regret it or did it work out for the best?
In my quest to actually wear the clothes in my closet/armoire/storage bins/car trunk, I dug out this old wool sweater I bought during a trip to Scotland in high school. For reasons I can't recall, it was a really big deal to buy a wool sweater on that trip
I picked up these pants on yet another thrifting venture and thought they were just right for trotting through the melting (thank God!) snow.
Inspired by none other than Chuck Bass (who's a young Heff if ever there was one), I used a colorful silk scarf as a cravat. I've only just begun to appreciate the versatility of scarves, and am now throroughly obsessed. It's especially fun figuring out different ways to tie them--hello Neckclothitania! Any other suggestions?
