Pearls Are a Girl's Best Friend

 

Wearing:

Jumper - Primark, Skirt - JC Pennys, Boots - K-Mart, Backpack - boohoo, Sunglasses - thrifted

How amazing are these glasses I found at a local thrift store?  Ever since Rhianna wore those vintage Chanel sunglasses to the Victoria's Secret show a year or two ago, I've been on the hunt for a similar pair.  About eight months to a year ago I noticed that the website boohoo.com had a knockoff pair for about $15.  I came this close to buying them, but before I was able to pull the trigger boohoo sold out.  It was months before I saw anything remotely similar to the ones from boohoo.  It wasn't until last month when I was about to leave a thrift store, when I happened to see these out of the corner of my eye.  To my utmost surprise, I was able to get these for only $1!!!!  How crazy!

Really, these glasses would go with almost anything, but today I decided to go with a pearl theme.  This jumper was one of the many jumpers that I bought in Paris this summer.  I especially love this jumper because it reminded me of this jumper I was interested in from Zara, however that jumper cost around $70, but the one I wearing is from Primark and cost less then $20.  Now normally I'm not one to mix navy and black, but I felt that my (faux) leather skirt would balance the pearls on the navy jumper.  To my pleasure, the navy and the black actually looked rather nice together.  To finish the look, I added my motorcycle boots, that desperately need replacing, and my faux-croc backpack as I did just get home from school.  

I have an extra long weekend ahead of me, so there will be lots of posting through the next few days!
