Day 118: Purple x 3
{musing in front of a home in our neighborhood}
Purple house + purple ensemble + purple earrings = Purple x 3
One of the things that my fiancé and I like most about our neighborhood in Hamburg is that it reminds us a bit of West London. Besides the color, I also love this building because it could almost be #10 Downing Street. (Or maybe #48-#49 Downing Street.)
I’ve had these very cool earrings (bought in Istanbul) for several years now, but for some reason I seldom wear them. Maybe because they’re splendid in a singular kind of way, featuring an intricate fabric enclosed by glass and framed with gold vermeil. They’re also in-between small/subtle and big/bold. I then ask myself: how do I wear these to their best effect? I chose a fairly simple solution – take the earrings’ secondary color and wear it head-to-toe. (Which, surprise!, wasn’t too difficult to achieve with my wardrobe.) So there it is. My inspiration.
Ann Taylor Loft tee; OVS (Italy) cotton cargo pants; Zara sweater.
