Shirt: Zara (similar style here); Skirt: Zara (similar style here); Shoes: Christian Louboutin; Bag: London Fog; Sunglasses: Karen Walker; Jewelry: H&M bar necklace, Emerson made medallion necklace, H&M wrist cuffs worn as ankle cuffs (similar style here)
After my week-long foray into color and patterns, San Francisco's somewhat gloomy weather has me reaching for my trusty black and white basics. Basics can sometimes get a bad rap for being, well, too basic, but I think they make for the perfect opportunities to debut your more daring accessories. Case in point? These wrist cuffs recently turned ankle cuffs.
Im in love with this entire outfit!! The ankle cuffs make the look! Would love if you could stop by my blog and tell me what you think of my latest posts! Follow me, I follow you?!

Love this! The whole wrist to ankle cuff thing sounds like something that could easily come off as "I'm trying too hard to be edgy and different but this really just looks sort of weird" but your version was SO. WELL. EXECUTED. I really love how you tempered it with the basics so it's not so in-your-face, but an interesting detail that makes you look twice once it catches your eye.
you look very nice and smart 🙂 .. aa always 🙂

You are brilliant. I have been fantasizing about wearing things on my ankles but I cant' do it. It's too annoying! Haha! That, and in the snow here, I just have to wear boots. I can't get around it. I must say that you look FANTASTIC though! As always.

Love the contrasting shirt, very striking, clean look!
The bag is lovely too, never heard of that brand before. Is it really popular?
Like the adaption of wrist to ankle for the cuffs. Looks great on you!
