So Dramatic

I walked past this purple tuxedo styled shirt 4 times before finally picking it up. As always, the color grabbed my attention. That and the fact that this shirt had so much drama going on. From the eye-catching color, to the unusually billowy sleeves, to the tuxedo styled pleats. I couldn't resist. I kept the rest of the outfit relatively simple, then threw in the dark green belt..why? idk, it makes sense to me though.

Accordion

I saw the print and the accordion pleats on this top and instantly fell in love. I initially thought it was a skirt and spent a good 3 minutes trying to pull this top over my legs. I gave up that method and tried to pull it on over my head and planned to shimmy it down to my waist when i discovered it was a top. I laughed so hard i bet the people in the neighboring stalls thought i was a little nuts.

Pleats

Happy Mondays Everyone!
The weather around here has been gorgeous (upwards of 60 degrees=YES!) so of course i found a skirt to match the weather. Once again i'm spicing up Black Mondays, this time with this funky fuschia tuxedo-like blouse and simple pleated skirt.

Belt Week Day #3:Soft Neutrals

I learned a very important lesson today: Don't piss off your photographer, at least not before your pictures are taken, otherwise, they come out looking like mine did today. So although there are not many visible face pics, at least you get the general idea of what i was wearing. I really need to invest in a tripod...lol. The shirt is actually a silk jumpsuit from f21, its tucked into my pleated cream colored skirt. I'm really trying to get as much mileage from my summer wardrobe as i can. I was a bit iffy about how this look was going to turn out, but overall, i think it came out well. I just realized how much i wear these lace up peep toes, and its a lot. When i bought them, i didn't realize what a staple they'd become in my closet. They're so versatile... i will see if i can try to wear them a little less, so that the other shoes in my closet will get to shine as well.
