Top: Velvet by Graham and Spencer Cardigan: Sundance Catalog Skirt: gifted Navy blue tights Boots: La Canadienne
The skirt is pretty cool (has a little slit on each side). I'm digging the top as well; I have two (the other is cream-colored), from when there was a sale.
If I might kvetch for a moment, I wish Velvet would resume making exceptional knits. The stuff they've produced lately seems uninspired, and, well, thin. Perhaps this one's in a similar vein:
...and yet, the older one I'm wearing has a sailor-collar thing in back, and more fabric overall? (The peach color looks pretty though.)

Top: J.Crew Tissue turtleneck in...? Buff Pink? Necklace: made by me Cardigan: Sundance Catalog Skirt: gifted Shoes: Arche Jacket: old (distressed leather)
This isn't the Heirloom Pink turtleneck, rather the ballet-slipper pink one that came and went in a hurry (Heirloom Pink looked drab on me, but I tend to jump on this kind of light pink top).
A grainy-licious close-up of the necklace, from this post:

Butterfly top: ASOS Cardigan: Sundance Catalog Skirt: Stewart + Brown Dark grey tights Boots: Cydwoq
Haven't done much ASOS-crawling, but I do adore this shirt, with details so often absent in our domestic shirt offerings: multi-colored print, covered buttons, a kinda weird back tie that somehow works, and the poetically named "pussybow"—we don't call it "pussybow"? I suppose we'd call it a tie-neck blouse, or something equally dreary.
Side note: this is Don Ho's kid? How'd she end up so cute?
