A lot of outfits

Fashion
Sep 6, 200876 Comments

There really is no way to explain how I ended up wearing all of these outfits in less than twenty four hours, including two that I did not photograph. The truth is I just change clothes a lot.

 

Y-3 pancho/cape/top, vintage 501's, a borrowed Omega Seamaster watch, my Ann Demeulemeester lace up boots :)

Last night I tried on this Y-3 pancho my mom had gotten that day at Fourty Five Ten-she says she'll share, which I'm excited about because this is totally my style: I have a plethora of heather grey sweatshirts. Not to mention I'm addicted to Y-3…in fact I've been meaning to do a post on the amazing styling of the runway show this season. Looking forward to seeing the Spring 09 show soon too!

The way the sleeve is unhemmed and double layered is a fantastic detail.

And this morning-

J. Crew pleated cotton shirt, Joie satin pants, lace-up Ann Demeulemeester boots

and then, shopping and a last minute get together for mexican food

Dries van Noten cardigan, American Apparel tank top, Shipley and Halmos skirt, Alaia gladiator heels, Tom Binns cuffs

What was I shopping for, you might ask? A sister for my Tom Binns 'Faux Real' floral cuff. I'm so happy to have two! One alone looks fabulous but two really makes a statement-the picture does not do these cuffs justice at all, the way they catch the light is dazzling. I couldn't believe the mark down on these!

The cuff that does not have the purple flower on it is the new one-I was going to get one with a more similar coloring to the one I already have but my dad suggested choosing the blue tinged one for contrast…he was right!

I loved my mom's outfit when she went out tonight.

She wears an Old Navy shirt, a Ralph Lauren belt, Hysteric Glamour jeans, and Dries van Noten sandals. Jeans cuffed to show off those amazing shoes, of course.

More (coherent) posts to come,
Jane

    I don’t comment often, but I love this post, so I had to. I love the tuxedo-look of the white shirt, especially with the boots. I also like the third outfit. Great skirt–I love Shipley and Halmos (especially the Spring 09 collection). Those cuffs are gorgeous. I don’t even want to know how much they cost.

    Caroline-I used to be able to buy Y-3 from the Adidas store at North Park mall here in Dallas but they stopped stocking it there. Now I buy Y-3 from eBay and a boutique in Dallas called Fourty Five Ten. I’m dying to see the Y-3 store in New York sometime though!
    It’s ridiculously wearable!

May I ask where you bought your 2nd one from? (not 100% sure why I’m asking, seeing I live across the globe…but, you never know!). TIA!

    No seriously, you are fantastic!
    (Oh gosh, I’ve used the word fantastic too many times in this post, I guess I should broaden my vocabulary)
    mmm, I have a request, maybe you can take a pic of ALL your shoes? I’d like to see’em all! Or at least tell us how many pairs you actually have…

    hey i work at a y-3 store in nyc and the cape is actually pants. its called the “spant”, half shorts half pants. its the most confusing piece we sell, i tryed it on like a poncho too when i first saw it cuz thats what i thought it was. take a look at the runway pictures, u’ll see it in there

    Hey guys!
    Thanks again for reading-
    Dori and Brigadeiro-yes, the ‘spant’ is a tricky piece to wear. on me, it definitely looks like a diaper…I know it’d look great on someone else though. I love it as a pancho though! The wool version sounds v. cool!
    and Brigeiro(sp?) I got my Tom Binns cuffs at a Neiman Marcus outlet in Grapevine, close to where I live!
    Layersofmeaning-I wish I could tell you the exact fit of the Hysteric Glamours but my mom got them three years ago in Tokyo, at a boutique in Laforet. You can buy Hysteric Glamour at American Rag though. The ones we purchased in Tokyo and the ones we purchased in LA at American Rag are really different in terms of the quality of the denim. I much prefer the pair from Japan!
    haha youre sweet Jo-I kind of suck at doing my hair, but the one wonder product I use is Oscar Blandi’s Powder Shampoo. I use it in between washes and not only does it save you washing your hair every day, it adds a lot of body and smells nice!
