A bunch of friends and I trekked out to VA on Saturday for a Persian New Year's party. Wasn't sure what to expect, as I've never been to a Persian New Year's party before, but it ended up being an incredible time. Highlights included one of the most impressive buffet-style spreads I've ever seen, foosball mastery, experiments in outdoor fire building, Lady Gaga dance parties with old people (Gaga fans, too!!), and lots and lots of inappropriate jokes. Got to spend time with some good friends I hadn't seen in a while this weekend, too, which always makes life worth living :-)
This blazer was a hand-me-down, so to speak, from one of my mother's friends. She bought it never wore it and I'm so glad I was able to nab it, because it is the softest blazer I have ever owned. The shoulder pads and length are a pretty major plus, too.
Express blazer
Topshop top
Zuni turquoise and silver bracelets
Seven jeans
Zara flats
vintage Ralph Lauren clutch

Such an elegant and chic look!
What a great blazer and the cut of those jeans is to die for. They look amazing! Great detail on the flats, very Persian-looking :) (also, love the title but now I have that song stuck in my head)

I love this look E... so chic. The jeans are awesome and I love your ballet flats. :-)
Have a great week ahead! xoxo
I loooove your purse! it's so pretty!

I see this and think, as always, you are one classy bitch (by bitch I mean lady, but lady sounds kinda old-fashioned and I'm trying to stay young and hip).
Hmmm I think I need to own an oversized clutch, this one is so perfect!
E, i am fascinated with your fabulous outfit.
I love the classy and professional look.
I would love to see the Persian New Year's Party
if there's one near my place.
I love love love this! The blazer, the jeans, the purse, the shoes... it's awesome!
Nice blazer, and those flats are the perfect touch. :)
I love the jeans!

the proportions here are great! persian new year sounds kind of fantastic - i saw your tweet this morning ("persians throw great parties") and thought it a bit cryptic at the time, but now its all coming together for me! :)
You're so lucky you're so leggy and tall (or you appear to be tall) --I didn't even realize you were in flats until about the third photo! I love this. It's chic and simple. And Persians are generally AWESOME so I'm not surprised to hear that you had fun.
xo
i can't believe you're wearing flats! your legs go on for MILES! gorgeous!
oh.my god. i need. those pants.
loove them.
The jeans are amazing! The outfit is simply gorgeous.
How do your legs look THAT long when you're only wearing flats? In my mine you're like 6'2! If you tell me you're 5'2 I'll be very sad, so please don't tell me that. I ADORE this look. If I rocked pants half this well, I'd wear them every day.

I have some jeans like these E, I was struggling to sort out how to wear them! Now I am not! :)
Fab look and love the flats! :D
I like the color of your denim trousers, really great! nice contrast with the beige/powder ballerinas,
classy, little retro look, great!
kisses :)
Such a great look. Love those shoes. Funny, I always get excited when I see your blog pop up in my 'blog updates' section to see what you have come up with now. You never seem to disappoint.
classy look...that jeans are fab!

I have bought very similar jeans few days ago in zara ;) I love its shape ;)
I really like your clutch. It very elegant and so stylish.
old people who love gaga?! that sounds like an amazing party to me haha :p you look fabulous (as always!)
ps: the anna sui dress on my blog from anthro isn't online but i'm pretty sure it's still in stores!
Love this casual chic vibe. Zara flats too- nice!
Sounds like a fun night!
Those are fantastic jeans, and I love the boxy clutch too.
Wow you look so chic, E! (: I love wide-leg jeans, and you wear them well.
wow for the clutch!
You look amazing in this ensemble. I love how the high-waisted pants and the long blazer give you such height, although I have a suspicion you're tall anyways:)
Very simple and elegant.. Love this outfit..

Inappropriate jokes are my favourite. Haha.
Those shoes, especially paired with those jeans, are just heaven.
Yes hopefully this week will be better than last week! :)

wow, i so love this look. especially the second photo. do you got to work in this?
this is one of my favorite outfits you've posted! i love that you can make this somewhat menswear inspired look so feminine and pretty. the blazer, with the strong shoulders, is incredible, and i LOVE that envelope clutch so much! ~joelle
so elegant! Love this outfit!!
Looooooove those killer jeans. You look gorgeous!
You look so long and lean in this outfit! Fantastic look my darling.
Love Grace.
i love the understated color palette here--just lovely.
Ahah, yes Persians have some of the best food at Persian parties. Love that blazer and the flats, clutch, braclets, top, well everything!
If jeans can look elegant... you totally make them do that! :) Love the look!
LOVE that blazer. I have one similar in length and color, but I feel like you have to have a very thin frame to pull it off and still look feminine. So, sigh, I will leave the expert blazer-wearing to you. You look great!
Sounds like a lot of fun! Love the flats.

I love this look! Your pants are so cute! I have some similar to them and I never know what to wear with them!
I have celebrated the Persian New Year with my Iranian friends for several years and it's always a blast! And the food is delish!
You look so gorgeous. Your legs are so impossibly long and thin lol
Those jeans are divine on you!
Ahh, i love your wide leg trousers! I always envy people are able to wear them, b/c i can't, due to the fact that i'm so petite; can never find a right pair for me . . . But you look FAB!
I love the pants/flats combo - the details on the toes are great!
What a wonderful weekend! I'm jealous.
I also covet those shoes. They kick ass.
Mhmmmm! Elegant jeans? YEPP! :)

Nothing like a soft and cosy jacket. Lucky you for 'snatching' such a beautiful blazer...
i'm always so wary of trouser-like denim, mainly because at 5'4" i feel i'm too short to do it justice. however i'm digging this look. you're inspiring me to attempt to branch out a bit...
