Finally in Felder

by cecylia on July 19, 2010

After eyeing the Felder Felder ring skirt for 3 months, I finally gave in to temptation. It was definitely worth the wait (and the price). The leather is so soft and when I walk the skirt literally rings! Plus, this skirt is made in England.

Recently I had a major wardrobe cleanup. I am a major hoarder and have way too much for what I am incapable of wearing. So finally after putting my foot down firmly (and  taking a few bags to the local vintage shops), I have made some progress.

One rack got special attention. This is my work wardrobe rack standing behind me. It contains some pieces I own from the boutique paired with my vintage pieces. I have decided to let this rack be my main rack and the rest of my wardrobe is the ‘storage’ and I will rotate garments periodically. That is the plan.

Wearing a vintage top and cardigan with my tallest Marc Jacobs heart heels. I’m trying to wear my more ordinary shoes out (see in the background) before I wear the pairs I treasure, still sitting pretty in their boxes.

Do you remember that Karla Spetic cardigan I liked to wear up side down? See here =) I tested it on this vintage stripy number. See how the horizontal stripes became vertical? It’s magic! Oh by the way, Karla’s last name is pronounced ‘Sh-peti-ch’!

There may be some pieces you can recognize from the rack. Like the Zara tweed jacket in the middle of the rack, as seen here, or the vintage green dress, gifted by my auntie, at the end of the clothes stand, as seen here

This top is one of my favourite vintage finds, it has gold lines all through it. Labelled a size 14, it still fits well and you should never judge a garment by its labelled size. Always try it on and see how it fits. The Chloe horse-shoe necklace is also a very lucky vintage find.

And since we’re on the topic of ‘rings’, recently I got  2 new rings- a squirrel, gifted by the beautiful Jess from whatwouldkarldo blog, and a lion. I love animal rings, they are finger pets!

What do you think of the Felder Felder skirt? What’s your favourite ring? Mind sharing?
