Army & Blush

by Jen on Wednesday, October 31, 2012


As much as I've been swaying toward more edgy pieces as of late (see here and here), it just doesn't feel quite right, for my own personal style, to go all out with that aesthetic. To counter the boyish feel of leather and army green, I love the idea of pairing it with the girliest colour I can imagine: blush pink. This blouse is a new favourite for that task, with its airy chiffon layers and soft hue... and the patterned collar is an ideal way to tie the casual look together.
Wearing: YesStyle jacket and blouse (c/o), T.Babaton (Aritzia) pants, Pour la Victoire heels (c/o The Bay), Vince Camuto bag (last seen here), BCBGMAXAZRIA cuff (old)

I had thought the blouse was cream or white on my computer screen, I kept looking for the pink you mentioned. I had to go back and read that your blouse was blush :P Anyways, I like it!

That blouse is so pretty! I am loving blush pink for winter, such a different colour for the season but so darling!
Happy Halloween!

Love the blouse, and also the jacket. I think I saw a similar jacket on Zara before, almost bought it. :)

Happy Halloween!
