Nineties Story

Having a 90s moment in a vintage pinstriped skirt I found at Shareen. I guess you could say this outfit was somewhat inspired by the spring Balenciaga collection, specifically the look with the crisp crop top and asymmetric long ruffled skirt .
Also wearing a Topshop tee, vintage sterling silver jewelry, and Saint Laurent sandals.

As a 90s kid, I'm IN LOVE with that style and even more the fact that it's pouring in everywhere! Your outfit really hit the nail - even the hair, the make-up, it all fitted very very well to the outfit! :) And wow that skirt and top together - I love bold combinations and let's face it, it's not really something anyone would do. You are rocking it, girl!

Nathan Moy said...

Love that you're showing a bit of mid-riff! This look's proportion almost references the Balenciaga SS13 collection, it's really a great shape! <3 I just posted the FRONT ROW SHOTS I TOOK from the new GIVENCHY AW13-4 show. Yes, the photos aren't from Google, they were taken by me. It was my first Givenchy show so please do tell me what you think of it. It's not your average review I guarantee. Hope you're gonna be wonderfully PROVOKED ;)

The skirt is beautifully fit for you. Nice, as anything you would wear would be.

A red leather embedded with molded roses would go great as well. You could win it here.
