Fall Upcycled Pieces

2.10.12




Necklace - c/o Imprintalish
Top - H&M
Jacket - Gap
Tights - F21
Boots - Threadsence

Fall is fully in bloom here.  Yes, I say that sarcastically since, what it means is that nothing is actually blooming, but instead dying.  I'm not a big fan of Fall.  I love the first week because I pull out my sweaters and boots, and then I'm over it.  I know it means we're in for several long months of winter and cold, and really, I could totally pass on that!

But it does mean the return of darker colors and richer tones.  That I really enjoy.  So when I recently got the opportunity to style a piece from Imprintalish, I naturally navigated toward this necklace in a darker hue.  It also seemed perfect because I immediately thought of a white shirt.  Then I just had to build the rest of the outfit around those two pieces.  And this was the result.

I loved the idea of pairing this very cool upcycled necklace with a white top because it's a great way to make something office-like *the white shirt* look unique and chic. I can see someone in an business atmosphere pairing this with a blazer and trousers, or a cute pencil skirt and being professional, yet totally one of a kind.

That's what's so great about Imprintalish.  All the styles are neutral enough to be worn in so many different venues and occasions, but unique enough that people will be asking, "Where'd you get that?"  I'm thinking I may have to get this piece next.  You? What would you get?
