Hi Loves! I’ve missed you guys 🙂 I hope your weekend was amazing! I’m actually at home in MS with my family for the weekend to celebrate my Mom graduating with her MSW! I’m so proud of her. I will do a post later this week, with snippets of the great time we had with her 🙂
So the outfit I’m wearing is what I like to call a ” style mash-up”, meaning I’m wearing unrelated pieces that somehow embodies my style and made perfect sense for me to wear together. I decided to make my striped body-con skirt the focal point of the outfit and style around it. I wore a simple white top with my army green vest, to neutralize all the white and at the last minute, I grabbed my favorite watercolor scarf to finish the look! This look is easy yet chic and it had a lot going on, without looking like it had a lot going on…(know what i mean?) What do you think? Enjoy the pics!
P.S. I’m participating in the Nautical Challenge over on Everybody Everywear go check out all of the fab looks!
