i bought this shirt at a vintage sale and have never worn it. when i bought it, i assumed i would wear it all the time, under a blazer, with a high-waisted pencil skirt...so many possibilities. to be honest, it doesn't really work out in real life the way i planned it out in my head. and these pants are great, but i just haven't been wearing black pants lately. i have been unintentionally wearing more skirts, dresses and leggings. then there are the shoes. i do love these shoes. they have a cute little bow detail on them that i adore. i can't say why i haven't been wearing these lately, other than the fact that i keep buying new shoes and i have so many that i forgot about these ones! sorry shoes!
so it's kind of like an outfit of misfit clothes today! it turned out ok, i think. nothing special, but nothing horrible, either. if nothing else, a little polka dot always adds a little spring in my step!
new loves:
pants ~ Macy's
shoes ~ Bakers

blouse ~ vintage, thrifted
do you have any lonely items in your closets that you want to wear but never do?

I have way too many lonely items in my closet. Sometimes I make impulse purchases that I rarely actually wear.
ReplyDeleteI love that top, it's a great piece! You styled it perfectly here! You shoes are fantastic as well (I've been on a shoe kick recently. I don't have nearly the collection I should!) they make your legs look like they go on for days!
I disagree, this outfit is not at all boring. It's classic, but the fabulous top (polka dots and a bow? Are you kidding??) keeps it from being boring. And you look wonderful in red.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of lonely items in my closet. I know I should probably get rid of them, but I feel bad getting rid of them before I've even given them a shot. Maybe I'll try to wear everything once and if it doesn't work out then I'll give it away.

I love the red blouse - it's fabulous on you! I have soo many items in my closets I rarely wear but can't give up!
ReplyDeleteI have so money lovely items - I put them on and I want to wear them but for whatever reason they feel 'bleh' so I change. I am going to do a huge clean out one of these days and get rid of all the lonelies... I need the space!
ReplyDeleteI think you look gorgeous and I always love a black/white/red outfit.
