Floor Grazing

Club Monaco top, vintage clutch, Persol sunnies c/o SmartBuyGlasses, Michael Kors heels,
jeans c/o James Jeans, cardigan c/o Subtle Luxury, long/short necklace 
c/o Brooklyn Designs, mid-length necklace c/o Keltie Leanne Designs
Sometimes, the most appealing pieces are the ones that are basic/classic in every way except one. These pieces are still accessible and yet that one little tweak completely sets it apart from its basic peers. Clearly, when it comes to this look, the slightly off-kilter piece would be this stunning cashmere cardigan from Subtle Luxury, which would be basic in all its classic luxury if it weren’t for the fact that it quite literally skims the floor when wearing flats. 
The thing is, though at first glance the length might seem somewhat impractical, I’ve actually worn it quite a bit since receiving it last week. I’ll admit it’s not the best for rainy Vancouver days when its bottom half would very quickly become soaked, but on a sunny day like the one we enjoyed when snapping these pics, there is an infinite array of styling options. Wear it buttoned up and belted around the hips, wear it open like a coat like I did here or button up just a few buttons around the waistline. As the temperature continues to slowly warm up, I’m sure I’ll be playing around with this piece even more.
On another note, the winner of the Persol Eyewear giveaway co-hosted by SmartBuyGlasses Canada is Christine Tarves! Congratulations Christine, you should be receiving more details very soon via email!

    What a gorgeous piece (the long cardigan). I love the color story you have going on (and those jeans that I still covet) and the simple layered necklaces. Soft and pretty.

    So pretty. What a wonderful piece to have in your wardrobe. Also mega jealousy of the Vancouver sunshine. I will NEVER complain about west coast winter ever again.
