eleven objects in three ways

26 August 2011

Went around pulling some accessories for a series of collaborations with Meagan, first on my list were the collars that Eleven Objects makes! The ladies behind the brand are super super nice and it was fun visiting their studio and fawning over their next collection, and being hated by their grumpy cat but still wanting to love it because I love all cats, ever. 

They surprised me with a collar to keep! I'm so so in love with this collar, and decided to play with it today. 3 looks, 1 collar. You can click the photo to see the outfits in larger dimensions for details.

All thrifted and/or vintage besides the collar. There's apparently like this 'style rule' where you should limit your outfit to 3 colors, maximum. Well, that....is....dumb. I think most of my outfits are like, 3 colors minimum. Well, recently, I have been wearing mostly all white and black on a daily basis, but it's usually the same outfit and that'd be boring to photograph since you saw it already. This is how I'd wear the collar on a normal day though.

I made the yellow cardigan in the first outfit into a skirt in this outfit. Super easy D.I.Y, literally took me five seconds and I just unbuttoned it to become a cardigan again afterwards. I like this color combination a lot.

Untitled-2

The shape of the two skirts bugs me, but oh well -- in real life, it's much more peplum and less bag-lady. I used a shoe clip from ban.do to top off the look, just because. I love their shoe clips, I used them on the shoot too. I hardly ever show you guys what I'm wearing on my feet though because it's too much of a pain, but trust, these clips are on my shoes all day long.

Anyway, I'm off to start packing to go back to school, and also back to fondling this collar lovingly. :)

Have a great weekend!!! x

I love all of the looks, but the first is definitely my favourite!

And I agree, that 3 colour rule is fairly stupid =]

AYYYYMEN SISTER. I thoroughly believed that if more people wore colour, the world would be a happier place.

COLOUR JUNKIE FOR LIFE! :)

Cool! I sometimes forget how versatile clothes can be. My favorite is the second outfit

J'ADORE the eleven objects collars!!! First saw them when poliopoliopolio did a photoshoot for them, maybe I will have to drop by their studio too when I'm in NYC next (which hopefully won't be ages away!) and maybe I will be surprised with a free collar too!! They are SUPER expensive anyway so you are very lucky to have been given one as I'm sure you know, unless they are that generous with everybody in which case I love them already :-)

On a totally different subject, you are SO lucky that a reader gave you a Junya coat too! So yeah, feel the jealous looks perforating your computer screen!

Wearing only 3 colours is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard! Colour shouldn't be limited but limitless! Love the first outfit, its so wonderful!

aah I freaking love colours. Especially that hot pink one, very nice.. I think I kind of have a thing for hot pink right now. Also nice job with the cardigan transformed into a skirt, I couldn't even tell. It looks great.

Your hair looks awesome, and the second outfit is my favorite! I definitely want to try that trick out with a cardigan when it gets a little cooler. The skirt in the 3rd outfit is so pretty!

Those collars are fab :) and the cardigan as skirt is a stroke of absolute genius xxx

Okay, my love for that collar and the way you used in all three outfits is tremendous. You shouldn't just have an internship- they should give you a job!

I love the first two looks so much. How did you turn the cardigan into a skirt?! I've been trying for ages! @.@ And the double collar idea is awesome <33
