Day 9/30: Summer Pastels
Tuesday, June 21, 2011Here's a little secret: I had a hard time rounding out my thirty items for this challenge, so I stuck in a few pieces (Miu Miu flats, ASOS skirt) that haven't been getting much love prior to the challenge. Needless to say, there's a reason why these two have been put on the back burner -- I'm still not done obsessing over newer items. My goal is to wear each item at least twice, so here's to hoping this won't be the only time these two make an appearance!
necklace: Amrita Singh (currently sold here)
jacket: Abercrombie & Fitch (similar)
tee: H&M (similar)
belt: Ann Taylor (other colors sold here)
skirt: ASOS (similar)
bag: Balenciaga

I heart this skirt! And love the casual vibe of this outfit with the denim jacket! I'm one of those ppl who just wind up looking weird in denim jackets :P
ReplyDeleteScarf post tomorrow! I got my pics and just need to add text instructions :)
I'm glad you put in the flats and the polka dot skirt. I remember you used the flats in your last 30x30 too, if I'm correct? I love the bows. Hard to maintain white shoes though...esp flats. Yours look spotless!
ReplyDeleteOooo, I love this outfit, Cee! One of my favorites! I really like the shape of the skirt and the polka dot pattern. Those flats are just so chic. You make me want to get a pair of flats myself. (confession: I don't own one, because I find it hard to walk in flats.) Which pair of flats you own are your most comfortable favorite?
ReplyDeleteI can't get over how adorable that polka dots skirt is. Denim jacket and a girly girl polka dots go hand in hand amazingly. Great job, Cee.
ReplyDeleteI adore that polka dotted skirt! Inspired styling today! I think you should try to wear the skirt at least 3 time (that would be 10%!) :)
ReplyDeleteI love this skirt - so cute and love how you styled it here. simple yet lovely :)

very cute! love how you threw in the best and necklace for some extra color. do you find the miu miu flats pretty comfy?
ReplyDeleteSounding redundant, but love the skirt!!!
ReplyDeletei'm all for subbing -- especially if you haven't worn it anyway :D i do heart the polka dot skirt. that's just adorable!
ReplyDeleteadore your polka dot skirt and love those miu miu flats too i'm so glad you've added them in your 30x30 because they're SO CUTE!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis outfit makes me realize just how badly I need a cute jean jacket! Love it with your adorable skirt!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun skirt that you are wearing

That skirt is so fun and adorable. I hope the flats and skirt make more than one appearance too!
ReplyDeleteI love this skirt. Pink and gray an polka dots, all in one piece of clothing? Awesome.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to say that while I love my extreme Atlanta summer heat, I'm a little jealous that you can pull a jacket out in the middle of June. I'm pretty sure I'd spontaneously combust if I tried that right now...if I was outside, anyway. Might work in my office, though :)
Gorgeous! I love that dotted skirt...and the denim jacket, perfect :)
ReplyDeletestill pining over the citrine belt. It's like you're wearing Summer on your waist/hips.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone :)
ReplyDelete@Jarucha - Yup, the flats were a part of my last 30x30 too. They're actually cream patent, otherwise they wouldn't look the way they do now after multiple wears :)
@Vicky - *gasps* Not one pair, even for traveling or long walks?! You amaze me :) I own 3 ballet flats and the most comfortable (by far) are my Target Mossimo black ones. My other two (designers), I paid a hefty price for the looks (and name), but they're nowhere as comfortable as the Target ones. They're not horrible, but it did take time to break in.
@purses and puppies - The Miu Mius are of average comfort. After they were broken in, they're not bad, but my Target Mossimo black ones are by far the comfiest.
@Tara - Hahaha, denim jacket were only worn in the mornings when it's cooler. They were never to be seen again the rest of the day :)
@AubreyOhDang! - ...but I thought you didn't like how the belt was pieced together?! ;)
I'd love to hear from you. Constructive criticisms welcome!
