Imola Red

Top: Phillip Lim // Jeans: Free People (old) // Shoes: Jimmy Choo // Necklace: Forever21

Anyone who knows me knows that I love cars; I've loved cars since long before I even loved fashion. About six years ago I had to recover from having to get rid of my beloved BMW 335i. I say recover because 1) it was a graduation present from my parents and 2) I had dumped a load of dinero on modifications. Unfortunately, due to mechanical issues I had to return it to the dealer. 

Fast forward to today, I've been blessed enough to have purchased, on my own, my childhood dream car - and in my favorite color: red! So naturally, I wanted to feature her (yes, it is a she) for a blog shoot. Since she added a splash of color as my background, I decided to keep the outfit simple and neutral. I predict this Phillip Lim top - another consignment find - will be in heavy rotation in my wardrobe so expect to see plenty of it. Oh and the Choos, too! I should've probably kept my shoes black or maybe even nude, but I can't help myself, they don't deserve to stay packed away in their box.

Happy Monday all!!
