Beautiful impulse purchase


(via acnestudios.com, private)

If you’re an avid reader of this blog, you may have grasped that I’m not an avid shopper at all. I haven’t purchased anything in a very very very very long time. But today I made my first fall purchase: I found the most immaculate silk shirt from Acne that I bought on impulse. It’s asymmetrical and just pure perfection. Most long shirts make me look terribly stumpy. Happily, the asymmetric length of this shirt harmonizes flawlessly with my proportions. No cleavage but yet incredibly sexy. An easy piece I can throw on whenever I’m going out or want to dress up a bit. I’ll be wearing it tonight with a pair of black skinny jeans and suede ankle boots. So happy to add another perfect piece to my soon-to-be-perfect wardrobe.I’m sure I will not regret even though I purchased the shirt on impulse.

  1. What a beautiful simple piece! I'm sure you won't regret it.I wonder how it looks like worn with a belt, but then the fabric wouldn't be flowing.

  2. It's simply beautiful. I like the easy breezy feel to it. I made an impulse purchase recently and surprisingly I don't feel bad about it, since I knew it would be so useful to me.

  3. beautiful! you will not regret!just wanted to drop a message and say that your blog has been a great inspiration for me lately. i'm so glad i found your blog <3

  4. I recently rediscovered your blog after your prolonged period of absence, and I am truely inspired by this simplistic, yet elegant approach to building and refining a wardrobe. I no longer seem eager to go shopping every week, but rather research the pieces before I splurge. I do find it difficult to separate myself from items that I have had since I was 10, but no longer wear. I tend to reassure myself that I will one day wear it, even though I haven't touched it in years. But I'll work on it.On a side note, I can't seem to be able to click on the "links" button, which I assume to be your blog roll. I agree that it is difficult to find a good blog that's not saturated with all the up and coming editorials, and would like to see what other blogs you may be following. Regards.

  5. Thank you! The shirt looks even better in real life.. the photos don't do it justice.ritournelleblog: I don't know.. but I'll probably never wear it with a belt because I don't like to show off my figure.. haha, as opposed to trinny and susannah, tim gunn, etc..Anonymous 2: Thank you. HMm.. that's odd. If you can click on the other links, then you can click on the link page. Perhaps you can open my blog with another browser.
