Quilting 🐝

This incredible, quilted satin kimono jacket is from Urban Outfitters. Proof that even high fashion can be found almost anywhere with a discerning . Taste and style are free, as I always say. It feels like a total coup to find a fabulous piece that looks high fashion when it is actually super affordable. I love the mauve color, sleeve length, and large scale quilting here, especially paired with the much smaller quilting on this Norma Kamali ball gown skirt. Norma is a fashion unicorn in that she’s a majorly iconic designer who has been on the forefront of fashion for decades, but who prices unbelievably consumer friendly. Her stuff magically also never wrinkles.

I’m so into the voluminous silhouette of this whole look. I have always loved large scale, unless it’s one of those nutso runway designs that makes no sense ever. I think I’m going to make this one of my outfits for NYFW. I already owned each piece and was able to put together this statement look in what I think was three minutes. Hair back a must here, tailored. The priciest item are the Stella McCartney sunglasses. Their color works beautifully off the color of the jacket. Chunky military boots complete the look. I’ll always go for a heavier shoe over an obvious heel anytime. Obvious and I don’t mix that well; sorry not sorry.
