HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN

Silver Goddess Necklace c/o Romwe, Chiffon V-Neck Top, Cloudy Jeggings c/o 2020AVE, White Mountain Booties

Today's look is inspired by the beatufiul Anya Ayoung Chee who recently guest judged on Project Runway! I fell in love with the outfit she wore and had to recreate the combo of a goddess-inspired necklace and a top with a plunging neckline. I was able to find a necklace rather similar to hers in silver from Romwe for only $15. And the top is actually a draped back dress that I hemmed into a top and wore backwards (and used black safety pins to pin the neckline and make it less deep).

My new acid-wash looking jeggings are from 2020AVE. I've been working on expanding the amount of actual pants I have in my closet as I realized I only have 2 real pairs of pants (let's be honest, you can wear leggings as pants, yes, but they really are nowhere near as warm as pants). Even though I tend to stay away from grey, the acid wash makes them more exciting! I'd also love to do a glam rock look with these pants if I can get my hands on a sequined piece in the future!
