Wardrobe Diaries:: Color Me DIY...

A wardrobe diary is long overdue around here! I woke up late yesterday morning and in my rush to get out the door, I opted out of wearing a jacket. Seeing as the spring days are getting longer and warmer, the wearable life of my very limited sweater collection is coming to an end. I only say that with slight disappointment because I found and purchased my favorite sweater only a few weeks ago.

Yes, the sweater really does radiate that much neon...obviously you understand why I love it so much. Upon closer inspection, you would be able to see that H&M took a white cable knit sweater and painted neon over it--GENIUS! And like most of the fashion crazed world, I have been drooling over the Acne pop trash jeans. The only difference is I refuse to pay the MSRP that is upward of $400-500. Instead I took notes from B. Jones and a pair of $15 wranglers and got to work. I am so pleased with how my jeans turned out (meaning I've been wearing them religiously). In true Coco Canal form my look had to be layered. Oversized white shirt, distressed jeans, neon, and spiked heel boots...I would say my extra 45 minutes of sleeping really paid off in the form of sartorial last minute, grab and go style.

What I Want Now:: Forecasted Spring...

The forecasted weather for Thursday says it is going to be a high of 68 degrees with partial clouds. This, for any New Yorker before mid May, is reason enough to celebrate. With the information at hand, I couldn't hep but think of what I wish I would be wearing to greet the first premature hint of Spring.

I don't wear a lot of skirts, but this one from Acne I am all about...I'm a fan of anything that doesn't make me look precious. I'd keep it toned down with the coveted Celine tee, and add a POC with this H&M yellow jacket which has been sold out everywhere. My shoe game as of late has been restricted to all things with a hidden wedge, so my new pair of Willow sneakers is an obvious and sensible choice. No look is complete without an extensive arm party and the new 'it' bag hanging off that arm (ie Celine trapeze bag). A quick swipe of YSL's perfect shade of orange and I'm ready to sing with the birds and face the day with bare legs.
