cities on silk








When the weather outside is blisteringly hot, the last thing you want to do is layer -- however, I couldn't help myself today. I got this scarf/vest/sweater thing this past winter, and it's layering potential translates seamlessly through all the seasons. I love the oversized silk scarf feel, and the vintage cities stitched in elegant hues. Plus, its BFFs with my favorite summer wedges.

{DKNY scarf; Calvin Klein top; Ann Taylor skirt; Swedish Hasbeens for H&M; JCrew necklace; H&M rings}

    I love the print on the sweater/scarf! :D I can see why you'd wear it, even in the summer.

    It's like a bazillion degrees outside though! I applaud your heat tolerance [Clapclap]
