The frozen days we set ablaze

Forever 21 double breasted blazer, Zoa sheer button up, ASOS silk fold-over pleated trousers, Hermès enamel bracelet, Pour La Victoire patent leather weave booties

Soft neutral palette, sheer material and silk just seem to make sense for spring when the sun is fading and cooling the day into a light breezy night. Also really into the fold-over detail after I got these Phillip Lim shorts, and when I'm into something I can't help but procure an excess of pieces so I end up with tons of the same idea in different styles. Great for the time being until I get sick of it and then it's good bye to 30% of my wardrobe.

I don't think I'm at the point of my life where I have an excess of pieces or that I can even affordable that luxury, but I can see how that could happen.

Love the pants and weave boots, by the way.

love the neutral soft pale colors on you, not many people would get away with it because it can look dull. but the fabrics look so precious and delicate, and it is such a soft silhouette. the pants look amazing with that fragile blouse. love the boots, white boots are so hard to combine, but this is the perfect outfit... oh and the cuff, that little details is the complete finishing touch, so fabulous that it is white

Amazing outfit, Carolyn. I love all the pleating, folds, and draping from each of the items, but yet are so cohesive together. Simply stunning!

Oh! Lovely outfit. I pretty much live in black, but now I'm thinking I need more neutrals in my wardrobe. And haha, I'm in the same boat as you about getting a bunch of the same idea in different styles -- that was the case with me and dresses last year.
