Stripe on Stripe

June 19, 2012

BLAZER: Forever 21. TOP: H&M Kids. SKIRT: Club Monaco. SHOES: Nine West. HANDBAG: Balenciaga City. SUNGLASSES: Chanel. BRACELETS: Forever 21.

 

I was buying a gift for my friend’s 6 year old son at H&M when I spotted this striped tank out of the corner of my eye.  I fell in love with the colours, but quickly realized that it was a kids top.  It looked really big for a kids shirt, so I decided to try it on.  Lucky me, it fit!

    are you wearing one of these cuffs:

    http://www.asos.com/ASOS/ASOS-Pack-of-Two-Smooth-Double-Cuffs/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2260712&SearchQuery=cuffs&Rf-700=1000&Rf900=1451&Rf-200=12&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Rhodium

    ?

    i ordered the gold ones but they were soo big and the color was off, so i am hesistant as to whether to buy the silver ones..but the cuff looks good on the pictures so if it is the same cuff, i would def. give it a t ry.. :)

    have a nice day!

      Oops, I’m so sorry Ulli…the cuff is actually from Forever 21. I too was looking at the same ASOS cuffs for a while, but then found the one from Forever 21 instead. I indicated ASOS in error.

    Can’t believe that blazer is from Forever 21, it is fantastic, and of course styled beautifully as usual!

    Jenny, you look super cute in that double striped outfit. Love the children’s shirt, I would never come up with the idea looking for adult items at at the childen section hahaha, super funny but it works I guess. You always wear the cutest skirts/dresses, you are such a girly girl :-)
