Militia Rose

December 14, 2012

A friend once told me that I am really good at mixing two very different looks into one, combining pieces that don't necessarily go together but somehow I make it work. A rather girly look with romantic floral, light riding pants, and pastel oxfords, completed with a cargo jacket to toughen up the  look. I can never stray away from pastels, so I try to mix in other elements to make it more appropriate for winter times.
Floral chiffon blouse from Charlotte Russe.
Vintage high waisted riding pants from Fancy Treehouse.
Thrifted vintage knit cardigan.
Fur hooded cargo jacket from F21.
Thrifted vintage two tone leather handbag by Dooney & Bourke.
Vintage two tone leather oxfords by Vaneli from Etsy.

    Your friend is right, you are indeed able to mix unexpected elements to great effect. I have to say that I'm also always impressed by your shoe choices - perfect!

    Oh my goodness, that top is PERFECTION! I love the pattern so much and it looks so good with the high-waisted pants.
