sweet and rough

Hey guys! Jessica from What I Wore issued a challenge this week to pair up one of your sweet and girly pieces with some of your tougher pieces. So I paired up this flower-print chiffon dress with an old military inspired jacket of mine. I quite enjoyed the results!

The whole tough/rough and feminine/sweet thing always reminds me so much of the last scenes of the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie where Kristy Swanson is wearing this white frilly, really quite pretty prom dress. At some point she throws on Luke Perry's leather motorcycle jacket. Too good. She was so badass.

  1. I love the jacket :) and the belt, though I'm not quite sure if the metal part forms something (like hands or something?) pretty though!

  2. Thanks girl! Yah - they're two hands holding. Almost looks like they're groping my stomach.

  4. They're originally from Naturalizer but I thrifted them for 15 bucks! When I bought them I don't think they had been worn but I can't tell what season they're from.

  6. Gah! Those are some of the cutest oxfords I've ever seen. And that belt is just WIN. It's a little Gothy/creepy but looks super-whimsical and cute with florals.

    Always awesome to meet a fellow Torontonian out here on the Internet. :D
