That's a bold claim! But I have worn this top and skirt together before.
It's not a fully identical outfit.
Seven years is a long time... enjoy looking at it here (2nd outfit) in July 2017!
Or, in case you don't feel like clicking through...
My hair has changed.I no longer have those shoes or the jewelry.
But these pieces haven't become dated - I still like them together and apart.
I always wear a camisole under the top (the back is pretty much sheer - enjoy my tattoos).
The skirt is a gem - old Alfred Sung, green lace roses, ragged hem. Timeless! Incognito and feeling sassy.
The top has a pink flamingo on it (and a couple of carp!), plus lotuses and flowers.

Accoutrements, stuff and bling:
I over-efficiented myself by putting all the jewelry away on auto-pilot when I got home from work. No bling picture!

All things I've loved for years. There's a comfort to falling back on old favourites, isn't there?
You had excellent cause to repeat that outfit -
ReplyDeleteit looks absolutely gorgeous every time you wear it!
The colours and artistic graphic artwork on that Scotch + Soda Top are beautiful!
The color, fabric, texture and hemline of the vintage Alfred Sung skirt look very pretty as well.
All of your mum's vintage jewellery looked very pretty styled with that outfit,
and your hairstyles looked pretty both then and now!
Yes, there is indeed a comfort in the enjoyment of old favourites.
It is a lovely OOTD!

What an excellent revisit! Both incarnations are gorgeous! xxx
ReplyDeleteThat outfit is good enough to repeat and I'm sure once every seven years is no crime :-)
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is fabulous and I'm loving a green and pink combo! xxx
Your color combination of greens and pinks has just confirmed my idea for a new crochet sweater!
ReplyDeleteWow. In addition to your styling prowess I'm always impressed by your organization and memory. Both far exceed mine.
ReplyDeleteI love how you sheer top shows off your tattoos in a subtle way.
ReplyDeleteThe combination of pinks and greens is a winning one.
That green skirt is so lovely, and it looks great paired with that top.
The pink scarf and the pink platform heels are fabulous too.
I do repeat outfits pretty often, but I usually try to change up something about them, so that they aren't identical.
Ah, there is nothing wrong with wearing it on repeat! Some items just work magic together!
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is a gem, I love its cut and sparkle. Also standing out is the pink (rose?) gold bracelet and sparkly shoes, both of which take me back to favorites of mine from high school. (No longer have the sandals/shoes but still have the bracelet, which was my Mom’s.)
ReplyDeletePerfect outfit along with your recent flattering haircut!
Cheers, Laurie
