I was thrilled to be asked to take part in the Modepass traveling jacket project. I had worked with Beth on a similar project and knew how much fun it was to see how different people would style the same piece of clothing. When it was my turn to wear the jacket I knew I wanted to pair it with a feminine dress to contrast its structured military style. My inspiration came from the colorful leaves that were still changing and blanketing the ground as they fell from the trees. It also happened to be freezing cold that day so a lot of layers were in order. I stuck with an autumn color palette and piled on a sweater and wool tights. Tomorrow the jacket travels all the way to Punky B.
I love everything about your outfit. The boots and the jacket stand out (Aww, too bad you sold the boots)! You look like a bee bathing in a honey heaven with those beautiful fallen leaves!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love the floral dress! :o)
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is one of my favorites! And I love that picture of you sitting in the leaves. So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat photo of you sitting in the leaves is beautiful. What a great idea!
ReplyDeletei love the outfit. the black/brown mix is perfection. and the tights look so warm and opaque - where did you get them?
ReplyDeleteit looks great on you! i like that picture with the leaves!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteathena: Wow! That's quite a vision.
Q's Daydream: Thanks! I rarely reach for this dress in my closet but when I do, I always wonder why I don't wear it more often.
Elizabeth & E: Thanks! I was a bit obsessed with those gingko leaves when they started to fall.
Ramona West: Thanks! It's sort of a long story about the tights... The store where I used to work in LA gave out store credit every year for the holidays. It was a super expensive boutique and the only time I could ever afford to buy anything was with my store credit. So, I got the tights there. The store is called Maxfield and the tights are by Mastermind (a Japanese designer). I think they retailed for about $180.
i have been obsessed with the color of your sweater for the past couple of months. love!
ReplyDeleteomg this outfit is amazing, so autumn! the dress is adorable, the quintessential tea dress and the jacket is truly divine! you have one of my favorite styles out there!
ReplyDeleteLove the whole setting: your clothes and the atmosphere with the fallen leaves.
ReplyDeleteyou look stunning as usual! i love the colours in your photographs x
ReplyDeletei always wonder if you ever have sellers remorse!
ReplyDeletealso - where do you find wool tights?

If that jacket ever came to me, I would probably kidnap it, move to a far away country, and change my name.
ReplyDeleteThese pix look like they should be in a magazine!
ReplyDeleteOf all the ways I've seen this jacket worn, I think this is my fave
ReplyDeleteI think I love you.
ReplyDeleteAgain.
Wow, I think this is the best Heimstone outfit yet!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much everyone for all of your sweet comments.
ReplyDeletecopperoranges: I got these tights at a store where I used to work in LA. I've never seen any this thick anywhere else. I wish I had!

ReplyDeleteGingko trees are my favorite tree!! You look absolutely gorgeous sitting in the fallen leaves. I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season, peace and love.

When I saw your pic, I let out a sigh and started melting. Brown is my favorite color, and your picture shows why. I live in a tropical country, so that wearing that wouldn't be appropriate here (unless you wanted to get looks). Your outfit makes me wish we had fall here.
ReplyDeleteFirst time i visit your blog, i love the way the pictures are taken !
ReplyDeleteThe combination with the dress is beautiful, very nice purse..
I love that purse.
ReplyDeletei love your outfit ;-)
