3.1 by Phillip Lim sweetheart top, Karen Walker skirt, Alexander Wang kori oxfords, Karen Walker necklaces It’s not very often that I’ve left the house at 9:30am to head into town. It’s also not very often that I become so enamored with a piece of clothing that I wear it three times that week, which, when being completely honest, is still four times less than I really wanted to wear it.
