Been super busy at work this week so didn't get a chance to post Monday's outfit (so today will be a twofer, I suppose). Hope that's okay and it's not too much WIW in your face.
Built the outfit around the navajo blanket pattern lace-up leather boots that I bought off-season on clearance from Karmaloop for a whopping $16.
****waves to Transcona Shannon and says, "see, I also build whole outfits around a pair of shoes!" :-)*****
I actually stuck these in the back my closet (since it was summer weather when I got them) and then forgot they were there. Was really impressed with the handmade craftsmanship of them, especially for so cheap. Nicely stitched and sturdy leather with the boldly colored navajo blanket pattern in blues and red/oranges.
So I mixed them up with other boho elements (the hat, belt, jewelry and beat up BF jeans) then tried something a bit off-kilter by wearing a striped shirt in the shades of blue that are in the shoes and topped it with the burnt orange cropped leather moto.
Pretty OTT but felt fun, festive, and comfortable in the combo --even if it was exceptionally loud overall. Probably too much going on but some days, when the hormones are still raging, I find I don't care and just give myself points for making the effort to coordinate anything at all (rather than wear a Hefty trash bag to work --which I actually think I could probably get away with at my office!)
