Shades of Ombré

by Kristina on July 26, 2010

Jeans- J Brand via Gilt, Vest- American Eagle, Top- Forever 21, Bag- Pasión Argentina c/o Hazel & Harlow, Watch- Michael Kors, Necklace- House of Harlow 1960

There’s something so fun about just throwing caution to the wind, abandoning convention, and dressing boho on a Sunday morning.

Oh, and scarfing down 3 ½ donuts and an extra-large kolache, a chocolate milk, and a small coffee.

Pretend you didn’t hear that.

Maybe it’s the House of Harlow 1960 necklace that inspired my bohemian mood.

Maybe it’s the buttery soft J Brand ombré jeans I just got back from the tailor’s freshly hemmed and begging to be worn.

Maybe it’s my fringe bag by Pasion Argentina.

Maybe it’s the beaded vest from American Eagle that has been waiting patiently in my closet since I purchased it over a month ago.

Who knows! Who cares! Boho chic is so much fun!

I threw my hat off graduation-style and nearly whacked HB in the face. I think my expression tells all.

I also really love to combine warm and cool tones in an outfit. It’s a challenge but I think when balanced out it can be done well and add energy to an ensemble. For example, the cool greys of my top and jeans paired with my nude studded wedges, gold accessories, and beige vest + bag + hat.

Thanks for visiting! As always, don’t forget to leave a comment and say hi – I like to check out your blogs! Also, don’t forget to subscribe or follow me on Bloglovin.

Love, Kristina

Hey 365! I got them at footnotesonline.com – a great source for jeffrey campbells, and it doesn't tend to get sold out as quickly as solestruck etc. :)
