I wore this outfit to a weekend barbeque recently. The harem pants are vintage from my mother. They are so comfortable and I love that they have a structured shape! I’ve had this H&M black lace jacket forever it seems like, well it’s been about 4 years! Whenever I wear it I am always absolutely smitten with it. When layered on top of a white tee (like I’ve done here), it creates the most wonderful effect, and you can see the gorgeous lace pattern. This tee is also very old! I think I’ve had it since high school! It’s from H&M as well. Back then they had this crazy sale where it was marked for $1! So, naturally I purchased about  7 of the same shirts! And made variations — some I cut the sleeves off, others I use for the gym. They are still some of my favs. These TopShop sandals are a new purchase from this past Summer. I feel in love with them at first glance and knew I had to have them! I envisioned them being the perfect pop of color, and they lived up to their full potential. I am particularly mad about the gold chain detail and gold platform heel! Accessories also include my staple leopard turban, my NOIR “Keith Haring” necklace, a long gold Khirma Eliazov chain that came with a small purple leather stingray clutch that I was given 2 years ago, my colorful tribal bangles and a smattering of tiny rose gold rings : )
