Inspired by Isabel Marant

I have been fascinated by Isabel Marant's F/W 2010 design of combining the boldness of cropped red leather pants, the cuteness of polka-dots, the toughness of a biker leather jacket,  and the feminineness of pointed-toe heels with bows.  I didn't expect that so many distinctive elements can be mixed and matched seamlessly and beautifully.  As a notorious copy cat, I was desperately looking for a pair red leather pants even though I knew it might be too much for my normal daily life. Luckily, Zara offered a much cheaper alternative (as always), a pair of cropped red jeans, which is surprisingly well-designed and quite flattering. As you may have seen from my previous posts, I have been loving it!    :)

Also, thank myself for not getting rid of my old pointed-toe shoes, so here I am:
