Outfit of the Day: These Things Happen.

So, yeah. I'm wearing the same pair of (quite excellent) jeans multiple times a week and some kind of t-shirt and cardigan combo but I promise I'm really trying to put together an actual outfit every day. Also, continuing with my current theme, I'm trying to add in one special or cool item that might not be entirely practical - a leopard jacket, fun statement earrings, OR the coolest boots on the planet:

Yep, I bought em. What, you thought I just enabled you guys? I also enable myself ALL THE TIME. If I didn't there wouldn't be a blog to write. But first things first, I guess. I'm wearing a perfectly basic black tee from Madewell - it's exactly the kind of long sleeved cotton tee I'm always looking for and I'll probably buy more. My jeans my older Madewell Boyjeans but this current version looks like a very similar wash and this black denim version is 30% off. 

My long cardigan is the Juliette cardigan from J.Crew and it's honestly magic - you can throw it over any old thing and it instantly makes you look pulled together. Works every time, I swear. (See above.) It comes in a bunch of colors too! I will eventually get another one, but for now my charcoal Juliette is working out nicely. The Sophie cardigan is another great magic option if you want something a bit more blazer-y. Now, the boots: 

I mean, how could I not. With that Bowie-esque lightning bolt? They were 100% made for me! These are the Esska Mash boots I posted about pretty recently and they come in several heel height options. I went for the mid heel which suits me perfectly. The color in real life isn't a true red- it's more of a persimmon/brick which makes them a lot more interesting! I bought them as a Christmas present for myself so I haven't worn them out yet, but I couldn't resist showing you all. (I will pack them away until the 25th because it's nice to have something to look forward to, right?)

In an effort to use my nice things, I bought my favorite Miu Miu bag out for a stroll. I'd honestly forgotten how much I love it! Such a thing of beauty. It's long gone from the internets but this Coach hobo has a similar pebbly appeal and oooh, look at this beauty. That is a nice bag. 

More details! I'm wearing my Madewell paperclip chain necklace and my Dean Davidson labradorite tassel. The usual thing. I tried to find another labradorite tassel to tempt you with but there isn't one! Annoying. I'll keep trying. 

One last look. Aren't they cute together? I think so.
