I have to admit that I haven't had a lot of motivation to update lately.
But with this photoshoot specifically I'd intended to make a post here. :) That, and I'm still procrastinating from scheduling classes....
Christian Lacroix for Evian, glass bottle of water (gift from my sister last year.)
Golden pearl brooch (vintage)
Alexander McQueen cardholder I bought a few months ago I still hadn't photographed. Surrounded by various accessories.
My order from McQueen finally arrived a few days ago.
It's a chain with a skull on it, made of brass with a gold finish.
The eyes are tiny crystals.
When I saw this chain on his website my first thought wasn't to wear it on my belt, but on a denim jacket between the two front chest pockets. I thought it would be cool to wear with a lot of denim and a sweatshirt like this one.

Cleveland Indians sweatshirt
Alexander McQueen chain
2 vintage brooches
Black GUESS belt
Brown camera bag strap worn as belt
Mario Tomei jeans
Thrifted brown shoes

FCUK tee, worn with a necklace I made with polymer clay.
This shot is mostly to show that I hemmed my jeans with gold metallic thread. I was looking for thread that matched the thread they used to construct the jeans but nothing we had was close, and I thought it would be an interesting detail to use gold metallic thread, so I did.
Vintage Dior sweater.
I thought it might be cool to wear the McQueen chain with something very formal like this.

Burberry cashmere scarf I "borrowed" from my mother for an indeterminate amount of timeCompany 81 denim jacket
Old Navy tie
GAP corduroy pants
Alexander McQueen skull chain
Timberland boots from 8th grade (hehe)

That's it for now... Now that I have my own digital camera again (I'd lost mine last May, and was borrowing my mother's) I hope to update more frequently (though class is starting again soon so we'll see. :) )

I love the idea of the chain across the denim jacket! Snazzy.
And I really adore your pants in the formal pictures; Where did you get those?
Thank you! :)
I actually found the pants at a goodwill, super lucky find... The details are amazing too, they're pleated on the front and the pockets have an unusual panel detail. I'll try to get some shots of the details before too long so you can see but it's hard to get details on black pants.
Also they're super comfortable and really good quality wool, they're fun to wear because of how voluminous they are!
