Sweater: Thrift Skirt Thrift
My boyfriend said I look like a little school girl today, with my plaid skirt, cable knit sweater, and collared shirt. And I turned to him and said, "Thank You!". This is one of the reasons I enjoy fashion so much. Every day is a chance to create something new and different and transform into something new. Why not try something out of your comfort zone? The worst thing that could happen is that you get a dirty look or two and that's not so bad in the grand scheme of things. Style is something to have fun with, people should stop taking it so seriously!
Oh and I'm exited to say that I got 3rd place in the Mode Republic Spring for Lover's contest! I honestly forgot that I had entered it and was that much more ecstatic when they told me I had won.
I ador the sweater and the shoes are gorgeous! i always get glares when i wear my over knee socks and get called a school girl, but i just love them so much!

Greetings, Luci :)
What a darling outfit! Your skirt reminds me of the wool plaid skirts I wore to elementary school in the 80's. My mother loved dressing me in those!
ReplyDeleteExactly, I could never identify my style with anything specific.
ReplyDeleteAnd this outfit and the backdrop are so clashing but so beautiful together!
You look wonderful! I love the combination... it's school girlish but still unique.
ReplyDeleteOh I can't agree more with your opinion on how fashion gives you a chance to create something new every day! You look lovely - I can't imagine you got any dirty looks wearing that! (:

I can't get over your expression in these photos - absolutely adorable! I love that sweater and how you belted it, and the turban is great. The color and contrast in these photos is amazing

Little school girl, indeed, but so much cooler. I love the color of your tights, especially paired with the navy. And you managed to not look stuffy in both cable knit AND plaid so I say well done, sister.
ReplyDeleteI love how all Californians will see your setting and think, "ah, home!!!"
