Let’s take a trip down memory lane and go back to January 2015.

What was I wearing six years ago?  And is it still relevant today?

Would I Still Wear That explores these questions.  Let’s dive in.

The Layers

I still love this look.  While my hats have transitioned to strong brims instead of floppy, the rest of the outfit tracks.  White jeans are becoming a winter staple as much as a springtime must.  I’ll admit I rarely wear mine, but I appreciate their appeal in a well-rounded closet.

The boots are Bottega Veneta.  It’s so interesting to me to see what Thomas Maier was doing for Bottega 6 years ago versus what Daniel Lee is doing now.  I got them on sale and they ended up being a tad small (and REALLY high) so I sold them.  But boy were they fun.

This post was originally about layering.  See my style tips for how to layer like a pro.

The Mop

This vest bore a tradition.  You can read about it here.

I still wear every piece of this look… minus the vest.  That’s not to say I don’t still love its ridiculous nature.  But it was a Zara find and my Zara days are over.

Velvet burnout Jimmy Choo’s, black jeans and a silk button-down?  I’d call those closet staples.

The Alien Boots

This was one of my favorite shoots.  Not only did I love my outfit, but it was the perfect example of having one thing in mind and then going in the complete opposite direction.  You can read more about it here.

I still own this entire look.  I wear the jacket often.  The skirt and the shoes, not as much.

When I first saw these boots and handed them to the Nordstrom associate to ask for my size he said, “it takes a special person to appreciate these boots.”

Clearly it was a sign.
