The Steele Maiden: Wild Things(Target Sunglasses – similar here; F21 Sweater – similar here; AE shorts – similar here on sale; Shoemint Heels – I’ve got my eye on these next; Vintage Bag)

I’ve never been a huge animal print person – the less is more route is the way that I usually lean – but as Summery dresses and accessories no longer feel quite right (and LA’s heat still isn’t allowing for anything too Fall-ish) I figured I’d get a little wild with things…

 
I always forget to pull these heels out as much as I’d like to, but they are the perfect dose of spunk to an otherwise casual or simple outfit.  And then there’s this necklace.  This huge, oversized elephant head necklace.  This was my first assignment as an assistant Accessories Designer when I was a mere 22 years old (at the time I was spending most of my days photographing jewelry but they wanted a few original pieces for a safari inspired collection and my so I had the chance to sketch this guy up and then see him come to life in burnished gold) and will forever hold a place in my jewelry box.  The rest of the outfit was kept to my comfiest weekend wear consisting of cutoffs and slouchy sweaters, a couple of California staples I’ve come to really appreciate this past year.

    1. Hi! Unfortunately I designed him for a past job and because this piece never went to production this guy is the only sample I have! But I am definitely planning on adding a few exciting statement pieces to the collection soon – so keep an eye out 🙂
