Too hot to wear anything sophisticated…
One thing you may want to prepare for this fall/winter would be a floppy hat. If you flip through some magazines or store catalogs, you probably notice quite some fall/winter looks come with floppy hats. Obviously, a wool floppy hat can easily go with a maxi skirt, cape, fur vest, etc. It adds not only romantic feeling, but also boho chic to the whole look.
I got this floppy hat from H&M the other day. I love the color and shape so much. Although it’s still super hot here, say 110F (yes, can you believe it?!), I intend to give myself some autumn feeling by wearing this hat with a knit/silk tank from 3.1 Phillip Lim, an asymmetrical skirt from Theory and Paola wedge sandals from Calvin Klein Collection. Hope you like this outfit.
I have been into Equipment silk blouses for a long time. I really like its loose, simple yet chic style. Luckily, I got several of them with really good prices recently. My dear friend, AJie, got two signature blouses in blue and yellow for me from NordStrom Rack. The quality and colors are just impeccable. Last weekend, I got another signature blouse in grayish-blue from TJMaxx and a silver gray one from Neiman Marcus. Both are about 40 bucks!! I guess I can finally stop hunting silk blouses with my collection. LOL~~
I am pretty into metallic stuff lately. So here is another metallic and leather combo. The metallic scarf is from Gap. It’s light & comfortable, perfect for summer time.
I got this pair of Giuseppe Zanotti sandals last year and I still love it so much. It looks high, but is indeed comfortable enough for me to walk for a long time in it. Thank my friend, Ruantang, for providing me the information for buying it.
I mentioned I got several pairs of shoes from Saks with good prices. Here is another pair. I saw this glitter boots from Giuseppe Zanotti a long time ago and didn’t think I would get one for myself as it’s kinda pricey. I went to Saks on July 4th, and noticed this pair on the floor without a price tag. And then I was told that it was the very last pair throughout Saks and the price was about 80% off the original one. And it is exactly my size! How could I resist a good deal like this? LOL
I know some people may think this pair of glitter boots is too bold or dramatic, but I just love love it. It’s indeed soft, comfortable and very well-made. Of course it’s undoubtedly eye-catching. So let me rock with it!
