Cage Heels

Shearling, Darling

November 22, 2016,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

As the weather grows colder I’m breaking out my warmer jackets, including this new shearling and suede jacket from Shoedazzle. I wanted an alternative to my leather jacket for when I’m already wearing leather bottoms. Yes, this is a problem only I would have.

It’s that perfect mix of soft and hard that I just can’t get enough of. Shirt: H&M Skirt: H&M Tight: TJ Maxx Shoes: Christian Siriano for Payless Photos by Jamie…Read More
