Long Jacket Theory: Do you even need pants?

I think not. Tights is what we'll need for this (should the weather get chilly or your legs are less than smooth). Love the Paul & Joe Sister jacket. It's a classic double-breasted shape, slightly exaggerated, in a beautiful gem colored green. It's just subtle enough to make black look a little too boring. The rest of the accessories are no brainers to me: The Lulu Frost for J. Crew earrings and the Stubbs & Wootten loafers have been on my wish list for months! Make sure you check out that Carven dress. The back of it is to die for!

Stubbs & Wootton and the Resurgence of Needlepoint

Images: The Cut, Moda Operandi

Needlepoint seen on Dolce & Gabbana Runway, with baroque floral elements, are the perfect mix of granny and sexuality. Two things that you would never want to merge cause extreme cognitive dissonance and hurt your brain to think about until the initial panic subsides and you realize the two concepts work so well. I'm particularly smitten with the floral kitsch Stubbs & Wootton slippers. With a big fan of neutral monochrome palettes in somber colors, this is the right amount of pop and kitsch to brighten up any outfit. Weekend wear? I beg to differ. They are All-the-time wear, in my opinion.

Not a fan of the rosy slippers? Not to worry. Moda Operandi has managed to stock an incredible variety of patterns and colors. Shop them all at Moda Operandi
