tweeds and checks

a definite fall outfit. tweeds and plaids always bring to mind changing leaves, brisk breezes and that golden fall light. i love the mix of the teal blue and brown together. this gap shirt not only has those great colours but also very cute ruffle details on the cuffs and button placket. the jacket is also an amazing vintage find. it's not everyday you get an oversized blazer that's fitted in the shoulder and also has details like piping and slash pockets. i'm wearing both with the mulberry bag i found at the clothing show. it's my favourite mulberry next to the perfect bayswater i just got in nyc. it's the more casual of the two though so it might just get more wear. plus, i'm not afraid to ruff this one up a bit, it was 50$ after all.

I can't believe you also owned those jeans! Thank you so much for the fit tips- I saw the back pockets and I was wondering how that would look. The jeans are sold out right now, but if they restock I may risk it and order them. Thanks again, Cindy :-)

it probably wouldn't be as noticeable in black because the pockets blend in more.
