Let us have a moment of silence for this outfit. When I received this set, I have died and gone to heaven (as usual, nothing new). Since I'm totally sold to co-ords and I've never owned a pair of tartan/checkered/plaid piece before, I knew I had to get this set of outfit when I first saw it from Amen Label's F/W '12 Femme Collection Lookbook. Plus, it's in orange, so it was like a total bonus and adds on to it's awesomeness.
To be totally honest I was contemplating between all the Perseus outfits (they have red and blue too, and I even thought of buying all omg...) because they are just too rad! Ended up with the orange one because that's the only colour they have in shorts.
Let's just say Blackmarket was at a location far away in either Netherlands or Utopia, which I could never find despite searching for hours. Just when I thought all hopes were lost (so dramatic hahaha), Clinton & Nicole have decided to launch their collection on their website. I hyperventilated and the next thing I knew, I was like 'JUST TAKE MY MONEY!!!'
I really need to emphasize on the collar details of this shirt. I am really into structured collar shirts that has the perfect shape, cutting, and thickness (I know this is weird but still...). It seems pretty normal just by glancing at it, but this piece encapsulates my idea of perfection. Collar fetish? Perhaps. I think I'm crazily abnormal (or maybe I am). And yes I would definitely repeat this outfit again, hopefully not to get fashion police-d by some crazy ass fashionistas who believe outfits can never be repeated.
