Mr McQueen

Last year, when visiting a small second hand shop in New York, I found this Alexander McQueen sweater. It looks a bit futuristic and like a space uniform. I fell in love immediently, and was suprised that the price tag read 20 dollars. What a score!
I, like many others, love the fashion house and I dream of owning more of it's fantastic creations. I recently spotted these velvet loafers at net - a - porter.com and I want them so badly. 

I styled my McQueen bargain with 40's high heeled shoes. I found them in a Goodwill shop. The filigree bracelet is very old and the pattern reminds me a bit about a beautiful spiderweb.

  4. Once again, your finds amaze me! Such a chic sweater, and the filigree cuff is outstanding!

    (btw, perhaps not that exciting, but I *love* where you take your pictures - the hardwood floors and white walls are a perfect background!)

  12. Your style is just incredible! I love all of your pieces so much, I certainly need to visit some of the places you shop for all those vintage treasures! I do not normally like houndstooth but the deliacy of that jumper has made me change my mind! Beautiful garments, and love the velvet slippers.
