Proper Pin-Up

Dress: Kieu's, $15 // Sweater: Forever 21, $23 // Shoes: Vintage, thrifted, $1 // Ring: Courtesy of Accessorize

I felt like this look had some dual influences going on: the proper, almost nun-like quality of the collar coupled with the saucy animal-print and hot pink shoes.

    Yes, the first thing I noticed about the outfit was the contrast between the old-fashioned collar and the sexy leopard print. I really really like it.

    I love the collar on that dress and how you styled it!! Ahhh, now I'm looking for quirky collars. I have one, that ties! Can't wait to wear it with stripes :)

    You look stunning, love. The formula for each piece is a memorable combination.
