When it comes to clothing- I tent to gravitate towards quantity vs. quality using the cheap & cheerful motto- if it's affordable and makes me happy- I buy it (and sometimes in bulk!) This is not to say that when I have the funds, I will buy myself a nice designer bag, it's just not important to me at this stage of my life. Take this (more conservative) outfit- the blouse was on sale at Smart Set for $5 and the heels were only $20 at Hush Consignment Store. Now that's what I call a cheap & cheerful fashion moment!

Does anyone else find it hard to walk in pencil skirts? I find myself waddling like a penguin whenever I wear them!
Ditto on the pecil skirt :) but your Moms wedding sounds awesome!

Loving your hair and outfit. The blue is popping on you. Did I mention that I'm adoring your new header?! Its great! I miss the tinfoil corset tho but you can always add pics on your side bar ;)
ReplyDeletehmmmm i would never know what it's like to walk in a pencil skirt! lol!!
ReplyDeletecute cute!
those earrings are very nice! I'm going to hush this sat to drop off a bunch of my clothes, I'm such a hoarder and they need to do this intervention on my closet!
ReplyDeleteLoving this outfit! Those earrings are pretty bada**. I think the trick with pencil skirts is to make sure the slit is high enough - without being too high. I'm also a really big fan of that necklace. Can't wait to see what else you come up with!
ReplyDeletevery pretty, the blue is a great color on you!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree about walking in pencil skirts. Maybe I have a long stride but I always want to hike them up when I walk. Thanks for stopping by my blog and I look forward to your remixes!
ReplyDelete@Melisssa, Babes in TL and Shannon- glad to know I'm not the only one with pencil skirt problems! @Marie-Eve, Hitomineko, elledee @derek- thanks! :) @Ashelle- I miss the tinfoil corset too but I needed a change (maybe you can help me figure out the side photos? ;) @PopChampagne- I'm steering clear of Hush because i will buy out the whole store- good luck on the intervention! ;)
ReplyDeleteThe earrings were a find at the Liverpool (Lancashire, UK) Maritime Museum and go very nicely with a pastel-hued scarfs with skulls as the mofif. Wearing these items are a socially acceptable way to be vent my spleen some mornings at the very early hour I have to get up at to go teach!
