Wrapping in Luxury~*

Here is my second take on this bold and vibrant Hermes scarf after the first one I did ages ago {here} - take lll will follow in the next post . A final result turns out quite preppy and playful with the burst of bright colors and a mix of different textures from faux leather, lace, cotton fabric to silk.

For this particular look, my main inspiration came straight from Hermes - the king of (super, top of the line) fine leather and craftmanship. Thus I decided to mix leather with leather (skirt, belt and boots - even though mine are faux leather but they work). Earlier this season before I jumped on this pair of black boots at Kohl's, I was literally drooling over a pair of Hermes boots. If only I had a money tree, I would not mind shelling out $2,000++ on a pair of fine leather boots from there. Since I didn't have such tree, so between $2,000++ and $50 something. Which one won? You bet - a pair of boots from Kohl's was such a steal!! I still wonder though if H boots are comfortable, I would be too afraid to give it a try because I may not want to take them off!!!

  8. The colors of your scarf are so pretty. I am going to have to try styling a scarf like this! That mustard belt surprisingly matches with so much doesn't it?
