This is my butterfly jacket, I call it that way because when I open it flat on the bed it looks like a butterfly :) I was lucky to grab this piece from Max Studio some time ago, it was a limited edition and I found it on sale. I am really in love with this piece because it is so simple and classic at the same time.
Jacket: Max Studio
Skirt: J.Crew
Oxfords: Campbell
Large gemstone necklace: Handmade by myself
Flower Pin on hair: From Etsy (Nonsuch)







you look like you are about to spread your wings and fly into the arms of Bill.
Have a wonderful week!!

Elsita, Love all your great outfits and thanks for sharing your sources too. I have a question for you...how do you do the pretty backgrounds for your photo shoots? It looks like you might do something digitally (like shoot with a solid white background and then add in the color), but I'm not sure. I bet I'm not the only one wondering.
