I wasn't pleased with this outfit - both pieces are too floofy and poofy. I should have had a slim bottom (like here) or a more fitted top (like here). Ah well, live and learn.
I got my hair cut after work - pow!
Sorry about the weird light - it's later on than I usually take my pictures.The hair:

Blouse (Nine West), skirt (Club Monaco), shoes (Tsubos), cuff (thrifted), earrings (Le Chateau).
Super happy colors. I agree the proportions are a bit off, but the colors against the silvery is pretty cool and I can see why you paired them. I love the print on the top.
ReplyDeleteSheila, pure and simple, you have great style.
ReplyDeleteI actually love this outfit. It's so fun and colorful! I wouldn't have even noticed the poofy problems if you hadn't mentioned them. I'm sorry the outfit wasn't a complete success.
ReplyDeleteOhhh I like this!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors.
I know what you say about the floofy but you know maybe if you belt it ?
I love the colors!! Such a great combination!
ReplyDeleteHey, do you like those Tsubos? I heard they were kind of uncomfy ...
ReplyDeleteLove your hair!
ReplyDeleteAnd yellow is such a happy color. The bold bracelet and snazzy slingbacks are super-fun items.
i like the silhouette a lot! top and bottom both have the same amount of 'ploofi-ness' so it looks on purpose. and you have a lot of arm and leg showing so it's not overwhelming. the only tweak i think mite be fun is a thin, drapey (chain?) belt along the bottom of the skirt waistband. to me, it's a chic and relaxed look - brava!
ReplyDeletei hope things go well at the memorial. best wishes to you & your family. steph
I want to draw a big red star on your cuff. ;)
ReplyDeleteI do love the colors!
Colour mixing is definitely one of your superpowers. And that is such a great skirt!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I like your blog so much, because you explain why things do and don't work out. :) Yellow is my happy color too!
ReplyDeleteI love the gray/yellow combination. You're lucky you can wear yellow. I like it, but it makes me look like death warmed over. Great haircut!
ReplyDeleteThat top is awesome, I love the colors and the pint!
ReplyDeleteGreat Colors....I swear I just linger with black I have to really push myself to wear color lol!! ....Love the silver skirt and yellow accessories ~Love Heather
ReplyDeleteThanks, Megan.
ReplyDeleteThanks, SU!
LaHdm, aw, thank you.
Thank you, Lorena, I would have liked a belt.
ShyGirl, thanks!
Sal, yes, I find them very comfy. I have no rubbing or anything. They're great all day shoes.
shybiker, thanks! Yeah, yellow is awesome.
Steph, thank you - of course, I meant to say, "it's supposed to look like this!", haha! I like the idea of a belt - I have one that would have looked great. This is my downfall with not trying on outfits before I wear them! Thanks.
Thanks, KayeStar! Ha, yes, a star would be perfect.
A-Dubs, thanks!
freeda, thank you - that's so nice of you to say.
Jodi, thanks! Try yellow away from your face? Like...boots?
Iris, thanks!
Thanks, Heather! You can do lots of colours besides black, I know you can!
