Outfit Of The Day for August 30, 2011. Sequins For Day.


I’m taking one of my last chances to wear white jeans before Labor Day (even though I don’t always follow the rule, it’s still stuck in my head, and I rather agree with it). So why not wear a silk sequin embroidered tank for day? I found this dark navy silk top for a steal at a Mint by Jody Arnold sample sale, and it just may be one-of-a-kind. It’s rather of low-cut so I wore a black camisole under it. I added a necklace that I made myself out of hardware chain and an s-hook. (It works as a chain belt, too.)
