A Whole Lot of Casual
Wednesday, March 21, 2012A big thanks to everyone who shared their opinions to my Sperry dilemma. In the end, practicality won out and I chose to keep the linen/oat pair. The colors are neutral enough to be worn year-round and I won't be mistaken for a big kid (even though I act like one). If I ever decide to go for a second pair, you bet I'll be picking out something bright and colorful :)
sunglasses: Walmart aviator (similar)
scarf: Collection 18 chain via Nordstrom Rack (similar)
jacket: Abercrombie & Fitch (similar)
top: Talbots rolled-petal tank (sold here)
belt: H&M skinny (similar)
pants: Gap broken-in straight khakis (sold here)
shoes: Sperry Top-Sider Bluefish (sold here)

You will not regret owning these shoes. I will tell you that I found that there is more cushion in the adult version. I've had my pair for over 5 years and I've been wearing this brand for over 30 years. Love your blog.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Mary! I'm a newbie and didn't pay much attention to the amount of cushion when I tried on the shoes. I'll be remembering that for the next time though :)
DeleteYou know what I love about you Cee? You can pull off so many looks. I would look so stupid in those shoes but you- so chic.
ReplyDeleteHaha just wear with confidence! (Easier said than done?) There's been many times where people look at me funny (ie: a big flower pinned to my lapel) and I just give them a look back, lol.
Deletei probably would have done the same thing :) one day i'll find a money tree and it wont matter, right?
ReplyDeleteWhen you do, please share! ...And I'll do the same ;)
DeleteYay, I am so glad you kept these shoes, I was secretly hoping they would win out...love this look! :)
ReplyDeleteThese are the kid's version, right? I ordered a kids size for my sister, and she claims that they're a little bit wider/clunkier than the adult version, so we ended up returning them. I really think they look the same, though! What do you think? Anyway, I'm loving the laidback feel of this look!
ReplyDeleteYup I'm wearing the kids' version. They really do look the same to my (possibly untrained) eyes! But I also didn't have the adult version with me for comparison, so I could be wrong. Did your sister try the kids' regular or wide version? She may find the regular version to be narrower.
DeleteThose look really comfy! I do like the choice you made!
ReplyDeleteLoving your scarf! I think scarf weather is almost gone now in Vegas...this winter was so warm, I did not wear too many scarves or tights! Kind of sad that so many clothes went unused!
You look so comfortable and chic. You're my inspiration for casual outfit.
ReplyDeleteExcellent choice! So, adorable.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely loving your style Cee! Those pants are SO cute, and I love how you paired them with a jean jacket :)
