Cheesy Paisley

We've had a lovely stretch of hot weather lately, which is why all my clothes have been loose and flowy. Today was no exception:
These are my new yellow Tsubos, the "Erebus" - they were on sale for about $100. I fell in love with the colour. In some lights it's very yellow, some it's rather orange. Let's call it marigold. Or Kraft Dinner.

I forgot about this top, because it was in my dry-cleaning bag for several months (along with a jacket). I've had it for about 3 years (pre-blog).
For this outfit, I just played with all the colours in the top - I always wear this cuff with it. The skirt doesn't match exactly (it's a taupey-brown in the top, not khaki), I thought it looked fine. I felt very bright and sunshiney all day!

Other ways I've worn the top here, here, here, and here.

The stuff:
Ah, sweet Tsubos. I love the silver lining! I could stand all day in these - enormously comfortable.

A close-up:
My awesome cuff, and my flower power earrings.

Blouse (I.N.C.), skirt (Club Monaco, consignment), shoes (Tsubo), cuff (thrifted), earrings (no brand).

  3. Sweet new skids! Those. Are. Gorgeous. And I love all the ways you've styled the top. Also, khaki goes with everything. It's the law.
