I mean, what's hotter than an a$* kicking elf that has the fine chiseled face of Orlando Bloom? Nothing. ;) Sighhhhhh, I remember the days when my little brother and I used to hurry home after school to plug in our Playstation and play The Lord of the Rings video games for hours and hours. I, of course, was always the Legolas avatar, and may I say, I always kicked major butt. I pretty much beat the whole game playing Legolas. ;) I'm sad that the movie ended in another cliff hanger, though. I mean, I knew it was going to be a trilogy going into the theater but still, cliffhangers suck. Enough nerd talk, though. You see that snake cuff on my wrist? I got it at my college's campus, way back in October, from a Kenyan man who had a small little shop set up. I got it for a stellar price and I just loved that it was unique and from such a cool country!
{h&m: dress, wide brimmed hat similar; Wilson's Leather: moto jacket similar; F21: faux suede over the knee boots similar; American Eagle: turquoise necklace similar}
I actually wore this outfit a couple of days ago, not today at church. There's just something about wearing leather to church that doesn't feel quite dressed up enough to me, so when I wear it again to church next Sunday I think I'll pair it either with a blazer or a silver glittered shrug. We'll see. :) To dress it down for an every day look, though, I thought this leather jacket and my wide brimmed hat were the perfect match. I also thought my turquoise necklace, that I pretty much wear every day, would look awesome with the bright red of the dress. Oh, and may I just say, I love this dress SO much. It fits in that perfect drape-y way and is so swishy I feel like a twirly little five year old girl. The best part of it, though, is that it only cost $19! I had seen a pin a while back of a girl wearing a maxi dress with chunky knee high boots and I just knew that I wanted to re-create it so I thought another way of dressing down my look was by doing just that. I love the look of tall boots with a maxi dress, it's kind of an unexpected surprise. :) Plus, it keeps your legs warm!
Much love!
