Topshop || Witchcraft

I feel cheated.

Remember my entry on this look in Topshop's new lookbook?

So after waiting and anticipating, this is what's actually being sold... Everything looks similar, EXCEPT for the Rodarte-style sweater. Which, in my opinion (humble, of course), is what brings the look together. The sweater is the talking point of the entire outfit. WHERE IS IT? The actual sweater being sold is more fitted to the skin, and not loose fit. It's solid coloured, not different coloured knits. And it is not nicely ripped at the right places.


In other news, I crave the two jackets of the other looks, the one on sale looks decent too.




Edit// Seeing Style Bubble's entry on the press event last year on these looks make me sad. The Rodarte-style knit piece looks gorgeous. It should have gone to production.

INSPIRATION || Leading lady style

Recently I've become quite obsessed with the style of leading ladies in adventure movies. It all started with a trip to the National Geographic store where CJ got me this gorgeous jacket. (Don't have a photo yet, and it's not on the site) It's dark blue, and it looks kind of rugged, yet well tailored and intellectual.

I suppose that's where it started... it looked intellectual. Just like what Betty Ross from 'The Hulk' (Liv Tyler's character) might wear to campus. Then I thought of Indiana Jones and now I'm building this inspiration board for intellectual leading lady style. :)

It's a work in progress, I've not done many inspiration boards, but I think this will be fun.

And I have to work on my leading lady style outfit!
