i felt like this background was too busy for outfit pictures, but i guess it does create a cool effect. it certainly screams "BROOKLYNNN!!!!" in a way that only a graffiti'ed wall could...
i LOVED these flats from the moment i saw them. that crazy pattern... yes, please. it seems so unique... i don't think i've ever had patterned shoes before!
even though it was a pretty cold day, i really wanted to wear them. so i had to also wear socks. naturally, i kept getting that "sandal-with-socks" look, no matter what i put on.
i was about to scrap the whole idea... then i thought "if i'm doing sandal-socks, might as well go all the way." i dug out these patterned beauties, and the rest is history... i actually think they go quite well together!

That first graffiti wall is awesome. It looks like you need to record a rap music video in front of that wall.
ReplyDeleteP.S. You'll also need a boombox.
lol arielle! now i reallly want to go back with a boombox and shoot some photos, at the very least.
ReplyDeleteyou are too, too adorable. and you totally work the socks and sandals look!
ReplyDeleteVery cute, the graffiti is kind of the perfect backdrop. I am digging the sandals + socks look. It totally works with the cute patterned socks.
ReplyDeleteI try not to have too busy of a background for outfit photos, myself but sometimes it's unavoidable and some things are super neat looking, so oh well. I think yours totally worked out. Also, that shoe and sock combination is ridiculously cute. :)
ReplyDeleteOh snap darling, you have me wanting those shoes...so so cute and so so up my alley. I love how you paired the scarf with that blouse, I actually thought it was attached at first - like a pussybow. Nonetheless, it is perfect! Gosh you make casual look incredibly awesome:)
ReplyDeleteLove the shoes! ♥
