Armed Forces

I feel like I haven't posted in forever! Sorry it's been so long; I had a crazy busy weekend with work and my FIT class and babysitting and homework and all kinds of craziness! Also, I'm pretty certain it has been raining at least once a day for the past week, so I couldn't take any outfit shots.  Anyway I have been planning on doing this post for a while so here it is:

On today's installment of What's Trending: Leather Sleeves!   

Mix match sleeves were a major trend on the fall runways.  Jackets, tops, and sweaters were featured with tweed, wool, sequin, fur, and of course, leather, sleeves.  I have always been obsessed with sleeves that are a different fabric from the torso of the design, so, you can imagine my excitement level when I saw some of the fall shows


Versus FW12


DKNY FW12

Leather Sleeve Street Style:




Some shopping options:


Sandro denim jacket; Shipley and Halmos varsity jacket (men's option!); JBrand denim jacket (on sale!) 


My looks: 






Look #1: Wool top with leather sleeves.

Jeans: Free People, top: BCBGeneration, shoes: Tory Burch, necklace: Dannijo, bag: Madewell






Look #2: Varsity Jacket with leather sleeves.  This look was supposed to be about the jacket but I got warm, so it sort of ended up being about my fabulous new Givenchy-look alike dog sweater!


Jacket: Forever 21, Sweater: Choies, Jeans: Furst Premuim Denim, Sneakers: Ash, bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs.


What do you think of mix and match sleeves? Let me know!

  3. I love leather sleeves. They seriously elevate a look for me. Also glad you went for a Givency look a like tee, and not the actually Givency tee, because as great as the tee-shirt is, I can't imagine anyone shelling out hundreds of dollars for a shirt with a fucking dog on it. The entire look is super chic with the red sneakers! Also, I feel super jealous of your hair and the fact that you can pull of wearing a hairband so well (I look like a man). Gahh you're so pretty!
