I'm a loser, baby

I fell in love with the nerdy proportions of this outfit... the cropped vest with a longer t-shirt hanging out and cropped pants with super nerdy white socks sticking out. Love! And to finish it off, I guess what has apparently become synonymous with my style - a grouping of pins!
 Vest - eBay (came with matching cardigan)
T-shirt - Target
Pins - all thrifted
Pants - Marni (secondhand from The Garment District in Boston)
Shoes - thrifted Enzo Angiolini  

The pins:

Whenever I wear these pants I remember the old secretary at my work who said to me, "Christine, only you could make flood pants look cool." And I replied, "No, only Marni." And she said "Marni? Who's Marni? She doesn't work here does she?"  Oh, how sweet and oblivious...

  1. Haha, this is cute! Definitely love the socks peeking out of your loafers.

    Do you leave your pins stuck to your clothes? I can never remember to accessorize, much less pin stuff on to what I wear.

  3. I really like the cluster of pins idea.

    I used to have a bunch of star pins like that from girl scouts.
