Black on Brown, Scarves by Darla & Guido Hair

December 31st, 2009

I’m a little scared to post this edition of What Sammy Wears [WSW], formerly Breezeway Beauty.

I’m scared for a few reasons. Allow me to share.

a.) I wore black on brown. Isn’t that supposed to be like, a fashion faux pas or something?

b.) I admit that I wear leggings under my jeans to keep warm in the winter. Like an old woman/6-year-old.

c.) My hair makes me look a bit like a guido.

THE OUTFIT: Black on Brown [with some aqua in between]

TURTLENECK: Honestly, I can’t remember = I own too many things

SWEATER [with pockets!]: Marshalls

NECKLACE: Topshop [the real version, aka LONDON]

BRACELETS: Vintage [thanks Mom!]

BELT: Consignment/gifted from anewmode.com

JEANS: H&M

LEGGINGS [under the jeans]: Forever 21

PASHMINA: Gift from Dubai [or rather, not a cheap off-the-NYC-street version] compliments of Darla

SHOES [see pic down under]: Payless

Guido hair [not intentionally] styled by Sammy D.

It gets pretty cold up here in the Northeast. I mean, not saying it doesn’t get cold in other places. But thanks to my extremely low blood circulation [sometimes my lips and nails turn purple. Literally], I like to layer. A lot. Thus, leggings below jeans.

If I had the chance to play strip poker during the winter months … I’d win. HA.

I swear to you, Payless is my favorite place to buy shoes. Now are they ethically produced? I don’t know. But do they freakin’ last? YES. I’ve had this pair since last fall, 2008.

And at the perfect price point, too – most Payless picks are under $40!

Darla’s Dubai Pashmina. Or, the DDP.

LOOK #1: A lazy drape over the shoulders and chest

LOOK #2: Double wrapped. Warmth baby, warmth.

LOOK #3: Old man fold & loop tie. Stylish, stays in place, practical.

LOOK #4: Head wrap —-> Style-photographer-stop-in-street-worthy. Yes.

Which pashmina look do you like best? #1, #2, #3 or #4? Comment now!
