fair isle





Outfit Details:
Juicy Couture Bright Fair Isle Sweater (currently 40% off!) - c/o Juicy Couture
pleated skirt - thrifted
vintage Coach purse - gift from my mom
tights - HUE
"Theory" boots - c/o Seychelles
ring - Artists and Fleas vendors
vintage rhinestone bracelets - gifts from my mom
lipstick - Urban Decay Super High Saturated Lip Color in Crush


Meet my new favorite sweater! I love a little bit of color in the colder months; I fell in love as soon as I tried it on. I know a lot of people reserve brighter tones for warmer climate, but there's nothing like a splash of color to brighten up a bleak day. Even though it's quite a statement, I've already worn this sweater two different ways within the first week and plan on wearing it a lot more. I'm one of those girls who plays her favorite songs on repeat.

I'm one of those guys who plays his favorite songs on repeat. Anyhow, this is a beautiful combination of darker colors with these lighter colors. Brilliant outfit, Keiko Lynn! Beautiful as always.

You look gorgeous. I really love the sweater and the skirt - they contrast beautifully. I am a black/grey girl all year 'round bu I agree - colour should be injected everywhere. Now I just have to work on that part...

dougefresh2000 said...

Keiko, your sweater is sweet. It goes well with all the rest including the real lips of Brooklyn. That sweater is a sweater for all seasons.

Chloe Jacqueline said...

AnnaBananaCupcake said...

Totally gorgeous as usual. The color is the first thing I noticed too. It's so unusual for that type of sweater. I can't wait to see how else you wear it.
XOXO

Katie said...

great colours! i like how you've paired it with a skirt too, as i guess the standard is just to throw it on with jeans. Your pink lipstick goes fantastically with the outfit too, love it!
