Jacket: Thrifted Blouse: Thrifted Pants: H&M Shoes: Chinese Laundry

I really like the thought of suits, at the moment, so I pieced together this suit from stuff I already had.  I wanted to piece together a lace suit, and the lace patterns from this jacket & pants were so similar that I had to wear it.  And, what suit wouldn't be complete without a collared shirt?  I have to say that it was way too hot to wear this today, but I'm in such a fall spirit that I'm suffering through it, anyhow.

  19. On any normal person, a lace suit would probably look a little bit absurd. But on you it just looks freaking amazing! Pity about the heat, but I'm glad you suffered for your art to bring us an outfit like this haha
