oh yes.grey.

vest.h&m.cardigan.mens h&m.pants.UO.tank.steve and barrys.boots.vintage.

grey layers.

I truly don't think I will ever get sick of wearing all grey. So with my fanatical fixation in tow, I managed to layer as many grey articles as I could. I resisted adding my grey blaze., because looking like the "Michelin Man" in heels is never a pretty sight.


I came across these vintage suede's about a month ago. They are a tad awkward to me, but the store owner was a complete doll and gave me a ridiculous deal, therefore leaving without these babies would of been a crime. Complete bliss if these were a tad higher ( still coveting OVER the knee boots ), but for now these will tame my lusts.

I love your boots! They are perfect for autumn!
I like your grey layer look. If you had added your grey blazer, you would have probably felt really warm ^^ I can understand you feel awkward with the boots, but you absolutely don't need to because they're awesome and they fit you perfectly. You'll get used to them, promise!

i absolutely adore these boots! the over-the-knee look is really hard to pull off (without looking too "Pretty Woman"), but i've found that Chinese Laundry has good, cheap options!

Ah I have trouble finding grey clothes in the shade of grey I like. But yours are nice! Ah I love the boots as well.

You're a doll. I love grey and grey and more grey too. It's soothing I think. I hope you are fabulous.

Girl, I love the way you layered all those grays and did them just so, with varying shades, that all that gray has such depth and texture! :)

And you look all warm and cozy which sounds nice because it's awful nippy and chilly outside (rainy too) and of course, little ole me who never seems to be aware of the weather, is wearing shorts and a tank top!

And I also love how you always look so gorgeous and fresh! It's nice to see especially since so many people around me put on like 10 lbs of make-up each morning... I'm not even sure what they look like without all their black eye-liner and they're SO young so of them! They really look loviler without all the make-up, I wish more of them would adapt the fresh-face look that you wear so well! :)

Over the knee boots are very tricky. I've got a pair, and I hardly ever wear them. They are made of suede too and they don't support themselves. In fact, I think I should sell them.

ashleigh said...

gorgeous in grey.

i am definately still yearning for some over the knees. unfortunately my love i think our time is up. it's nearing the warmer weather, so i'm going to say i failed this year and continue next year.

anyway i can never get sick of wearing grey :) you do it wonderfully. i love the layering. and my dear, i think it's safe to say that you will never resemble the "Michelin Man". haha although it did make me laugh to imagine it.

Couture Carrie said...

Hey Lisa - just checking back in after your comment on the Stellas - they are incredible, but a tad trendy . . . if you have a big budget, go for it! If not, maybe they will go on sale???

i have the simmilar sueds on my radar by diesel. well see ;)

layers are great. we should all be layered :) .

but im going to have to concetrate on boots now, 'cause i have to have my diesel now. for yours look great on you.

but what i like the most about your outfits is that they are very modelesque and simple.

Vertiginoso said...

And grey is frankly synonym of pure softness with you !!! You're subtly hieratic in the second picture, delightfully casual/mesmerizing . . .

A Bientôt, Antoine

Susanna-Cole King said...

Aw, seriously, I don't know what I did to deserve knowing someone as kind as you! Really I don't think they come any sweeter than you!

And you have one of the most admirable traits a person can have, in my opinion. Which is what I call the "building-up" trait, you always are so positive and encourging and make me feel so good! Lots of people can do that from time to time, but not many people are constantly able to extend such building up and love! :)

And don't worry, dear, you express your self perfectly well through words! ;)

Have a lovely day/night! :)

I'm lusting for thigh-high boots as well.. But I wouldn't mind a pair of those seconhand ones! Hand them over whenever you'd like to :)

I also want to find a perfect over-knee suede boots. In fact, even the over-knee ones just arrive to the knee in my case and I hate it.
I love grey looks

Jillian Hobbs said...

I really love your style it's simplistic but you always add something that really pops. It's very inspiring!
