I'm looking forward to fall but still enjoying summer styles, thus wearing as much white as I can while it's still summer. I bought this skirt last year and only wore it once. I'm debating on whether or not to keep it or sell/donate it. If feels a little short. It also wrinkles horribly. I did wear skimmies with it this time and the length didn't bother me so much. Yet, I'm still not sure this is the most flattering cut for me.

The last time I wore this blouse, my coworker complimented it and commented that it would go with so many things. I hesitated on that thought because in my mind this blouse only went with teal and brown. So I began to challenge myself to find other ways to wear it and decided that it would pair well with this light grey suit. What colors would you wear it with?

I've also recently discovered Bridgette Raes and her wonderful tips. I already do some of her suggestions like finding alternative to black shoes. I do wear my black pumps and black wedge flats a lot but my favorite outfits are the ones like this one that have some contrast between the shoes and base colors.

I'd love for you to follow me on Bloglovin and Pinterest.

It took me seeing a similar combination on someone else for me to realize I could put these two pieces together. I've done lots of red, white, and black before, so I don't really know why this eluded me. I guess I should start thinking a little simpler when it comes to outfits.

 

Have a great weekend!

I'm doing the very thing I harped about not liking last week. I'm posting lots of photos. In my defense, there's two versions of the outfit. And I've provided a break with text and details, so if you don't want to look past the first three photos, you can stop here. But if you don't, thanks for looking. Above is what I actually wore to church a couple of weeks ago. I think palazzo pants just scream "big floppy hat" but that would be rude to wear the hat in church so I didn't. I just couldn't help playing around and styling this look with the hat too for photos.

Oh and this could be the last time you see these pants. I washed them and put them in the dryer like the instructions said, tumble dry low. I was hoping for a little shrinkage because they were so long, but I got a lot of shrinkage, like, I've got to now cover my booty in these because they are a bit tight, kind of shrinkage.

Shrinkage? is that even a word?
