Arm's Length

by Jen on Friday, January 4, 2013


There's something so striking about a long glove: I love the way the right pair exudes femininity, glamour, and sophistication at once.When made in leather, however, I think they get even better... like this pair, which I think have just the amount of edge in them so that they work just as well for a casual look.
Wearing: Zara cape and shoes (old), Aritzia pants, H&M snood (old), Club Monaco gloves (c/o - on sale here!), Artessorio bag, Lumiere Collection bracelet (c/o)

You look stunning and the combination is beautiful!
I have been looking at all the lovely trouser pairings you've been making recently and just can't stop myself asking a practical question - are your feet bare or do you wear stockings/tights? It always seems to me that you are very warmly dressed (I imagine it's pretty cold) with lots of layers on the top and then your feet seem exposed. I am only asking because I would love to wear more cropped trousers in the winter and being cold is always my problem as I find wearing them with socks unattractive (although I recently saw a photo in a catalogue which combined cropped trousers with black opaque tight and heels and did not look too bad at all). Please share your secret ;-)
