Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a safe and fun-filled celebration to officially start the year.
So about 2 weeks ago (in 2015...), I had the pleasure of collaborating with local Portland photographer, Nino Ortiz - to do a very casual photo shoot. Although we had only just met, we had this great connection as if we had been friends for years. He is incredibly talented and soaks in every photographic opportunity as a learning experience. I am very honored to be a part of his love for creativity.
So for this shoot, I wanted to find an outfit that would compliment my green skater skirt (from H&M). Green also happens to my favorite color and I wanted the skirt to stand alone. By throwing a long olive coat into the mix, dark high heel boots, and a black top it instantly became winter friendly outfit. With the boots, I added thigh high socks to keep the legs warm while giving the boots a longer appearance. This lengthy waterproof coat (from Laundry by Shelli Segal) comes with a hood and is perfect for the rainy days here in Portland. To keep the overall look very chic, I bought a new black hat from Ross for only $10! The amount of “floppiness” was just right. Here are some similar pieces you can pull together for this outfit:

This is my absolute favorite look for the season. This sassy skirt & boots combo can be worn to coffee, brunch, or shopping with friend. I hope you enjoyed my take on green olives.
Much love,
Vyvyan
