{Style} Layers + Lims...

Houndstooth sweater- Zara | pleated skirt- vintage | bag- Phillip Lim for Target | booties via Ordinary People | necklace- Zara | bracelets c/o Forever 21 | watch + ring- Michael Kors

 

Six friends, three Target locations and one pumpkin spice latte — that's all it took to score my entire Phillip Lim wishlist, ladies and gents. If I'm not mistaken, I think that's what they call a winning strategy... Either that, or a stage five, point-of-no-return, OCD-fuelled shopping addiction. I prefer the former.

Soooo, did you guys have a little fun of your own on (*ahem*) Phillip Lim Day as well? Fill me in on what you got! xx

{Remix} 1 Blazer, 4 ways...

This blazer has been in pretty steady rotation ever since it came to live at Casa de Crazy-Clothes Lady (that's me!), so I thought it might be fun to show you a few of the ways I've styled it in the past. From preppy layers and polka dots, to girlie dresses and prints-galore, there's no shortage of remixing possibilities and I intend to try them all... Challenge accepted.

My favourite way to wear this blazer so far has been over lightweight dresses, particularly the white feather dress pictured above. The light colours and contrasting textures work really well together, giving the illusion of a fresh, spring-ready look that still keeps you relatively warm (say what!). In fact, I liked this look from last May so much that I recreated it with a similar blazer here.... Hey, a girl's got to milk these things, OK?

Happy Thursday, friends! xx

Baby Blues...

Hello lovelies! How is everyone today? I was super thrilled when the lovely people at Ella+Cathy offered to send me a top to style... How sweet is that? And speaking of sweet, here it is.

I love the colour, cinched waist and frilly details that make this tank undeniably girly, yet at the same time, super versatile. Before deciding on this particular look, I experimented by pairing it with everything from jeans to skirts and back, and believe me when I tell you that it pretty much looks good with everything. Not bad for one little tank, huh?

To offset its femininity, I decided to pair my new top with tweed shorts, a denim vest and black accessories for an edgier, more urban look. What do you guys think? I can't wait to incorporate it into more looks and see how much milage I can get out of it... Long live the remix!

A special thank you to Ella+Cathy for the lovely tank top- I absolutely love it! Be sure to check out all their offerings online, and follow them on Facebook and Twitter for updates and promotions! xx
