Sarah, You are so right. I have all these questions in my head but haven't had the time to experiment and take pictures lately. I just wanted to get the question out here before I forgot
shana, I know! I really want a white blazer like that. I've been hunting for ages. It's funny how zoned on certain items I have become since YLF - white blazer, red blazer, brogues etc. It's like I have tunnel vision, LOL.
AJ, that's a great idea about subbing the light moto jacket. The distressing doesn't bother me but I won't be seeking out a pair with distressing. Hmm, I actually started off looking for a white/off white pair of brogues when the spectator brogues (which I'm still bidding for on ebay) compeltelyt distracted me.
Ele, You're right, I've been studying the picture and those jeans seem more slim bootcut. I'm more wary of the cuffing I think, you know big thighs and stumping and all I guess, like Sarah said, I won't know till I try. UO and ASOS seem to have a good selection of brogues right now. And don't forget Etsy. They have some great, authentic vintage brogues and oxfords there now.
