Great outfit! Love the yellow cardigan. (and now I’m sort of regretting not going for the James Perse long skirt yesterday). The Swedish are always somehow ahead with everything (the skinny jeans, the clogs, the plaid prints—), the clog looks very cute on you too!
this looks great on you! i second nanashi on the hasbeens…those are fab! i do have a question about your james perse twisted seam skirt – is it comfy to wear, even though the material is a bit heavier? i got the twisted seam skirt in heather gray at doe’s sale last night and am looking forward to experimenting with all the different ‘looks’ i can wear it…

sophie – the skirt is very comfortable to wear, although, not the easiest to walk a lot in (it’s very form fitting). i usually save it for when i’m going out to dinner, or over to the future in-laws or something. i love the shape though; it’s a lot of fun to style! i can’t wait to see what you do with it, i always love your outfits 🙂
grechen, thanks for the mini review! i can’t wait to get my james perse order from doe…in the meantime, i was inspired by your swedish hasbeens and got myself a pair of worishofers 😀 sooooooo comfy.

i bought a pair of worishofers a couple of years ago and they looked horrible on me! i wanted to love them, but they really did nothing for my feet. i have heard that they’re really comfortable though…but so are my hasbeens. i just wish they were a LOT cheaper 🙂
Hi there! New to your website, but love it. I’ve been eyeing the Swedish Hasbeen sandals and am wondering if you can provide some guidance on their sizing. I’m an 8/38 99% of the time and want to order the right size, considering the shoes are coming directly from Sweden and it’d be a drag to have to exchange them. Any tips would be so appreciated. Thanks!
hi! thanks for your comment!! first, i don’t know if you’re aware, but you can buy swedish hasbeens via endless (that’s where i got mine) and they’re offering $15 off through 4/29. if you can find your size/color there, it’s the best bet!! they ship overnight, and provide free returns…
that said, i’m the same size as you and took a 38 in these – they’re perfect. the leather only stretched out a teeny bit, they just fit well right off the bat.
