This outfit isn't a super exciting one; it was a comfortable, casual look that I threw together in the morning when I was running around trying to get everything together for meeting with my tax guy. But I wanted to show it to you because it features this beautiful suede jacket that I found while out thrifting with my mom in Oregon last month. This jacket is a perfect illustration of patchwork done really well; the patches have subtle variations in texture and color, giving the jacket depth without making it look like it was just thrown together from a bunch of scraps. It also looks like it has never been worn, which is unusual for a suede piece found in a thrift store.
purple top with brown pants and purple boots would work, but adding the green scarf is a bit more adventurous and interesting.Scarf: Rhapsodia
Top: Just Angels
Cords: Marlowe
Boots: Fly London
Jacket: thrifted
Bracelet: Betsey Johnson

Love that scarf!!
I am crazy about that top. Such fun details!
That's a lovely jacket - I would have grabbed that right out of your hands, haha!
Those pants make you look so leggy! Great cut on you.
Hello, have you seen these? http://www.fluevog.com/code/?w[0]=gender:women&p=93&pp=4&view=detail&colourID=2361 they make me think on the ice skates boots you were talking about some time ago, they are gorgeous!!

I have a bright green scarf just like that which I have not been able to find the right outfit for. You've just given me some great ideas, thank you!
No kidding! The suede stuff I see at thrift stores is usually motheaten and dirty. To find a patchwork suede jacket - and a pale bone one at that - in such amazing condition is a major score!
tini: Oh yes, I know those Fluevogs well; they're gorgeous!
