I got the chance to use my new tripod and was inspired by yet another Duran Duran song with my outfit. I felt my jacket was quite androgynous with the pin-stripes, so I kept it simple with a white sweater and black skinny jeans. I had the hat on, but felt better holding it to give a hint of Duran Duran’s “The Chauffeur” without going overboard (the title of this post is a line from the song).
I’m also loving the “Walk the Walk” boots that I bought from Modcloth.com (sorry kids, they went on sale and suddenly sold out!). They are quite comfortable and flattering with everything from jeans to dresses. I have worn these boots everyday since I bought them.
I always get asked where I bought this distressed white sweater. It looks like it’s been sliced or run all over like stockings, and has loose threads on the sleeves and on either side of the sweater, giving it an almost spiderweb look. Believe it or not, I bought it at an “Everything $5.99” store. We went in the store, looking for little knickknacks. I walked over to the 99 cent rack and found this sweater. The best dollar I’ve ever spent!
Outfit: Anna Sui jacket; Guess skinny jeans; “Walk the Walk” Boots from Modcloth.com; Unknown brand sweater; H&M hat; Juicy Couture ring; Burberry sunglasses; Charm bracelet was a Christmas gift from my niece
Glad I got those boots when I did! Next shoe purchase is a warm weather one. I’ll show you those when I get them.
I’m glad, too! I definitely want to see your next pair. I’m on the hunt for new warm weather shoes as well!

Your blog is fantasic as well, thank you so much for stopping by.

re: “The Chauffeur” – I have to skip that video and “Girls on Film” whenever I want to watch my Duran Duran videos with my daughter. I believe the woman in “The Chauffeur” video was Perri Lister, Billy Idol’s girlfriend at the time.
LOL! My mom didn’t really know about the “night versions” of the videos, so I did watch them once and my best friend gave me a copy with those videos edited out. I didn’t know that the woman in the video of “The Chauffeur” was Billy Idol’s former girlfriend!
