What I’m Wearing
* Juma dark taupe/gray shorts from GILT
* Myne – Ashly Ann navy/ivory print tank/blouse also from GILT. I love this tank blouse with it’s braided straps & t-back …but ohMYGOD it would not stay up! All day long I had to pull it up in the front as too keep from showing the world my entire bra. Like literally, it would slip down that far in the front. It was blowing my mind. I adore the print though so I’m going to have figure out how to alter it to prevent it from exposing my boobs all day because I don’t want to wear anything under it.
* Vintage beige blazer last seen here
* Boutique 9 Anklestrap Sandal
* worn with a favorite vintage gold shell necklace, a clover necklace inspired by Van Cleef’s Alhambra necklace from NYLightMetals -Etsy shop, vintage gold & ruby ring {grandma’s} + various gold stacking rings from GILT, D&G gold watch, gold bangles and gold hoops
* Tom Ford Anouk sunglasses
* Louis Vuitton medium speedy bag …and as much as I keep thinking I should retire this again, it happens to go with all the outfits I’m putting together lately so at this point, why bother? 🙂 It’s always a classic
I would have sent these shorts back if they weren’t final sale because when I first tried them on I thought they were absolutely horrendously unflattering. It was strange then why this particular morning I decided to rip them out of their shipping bag and try them on with this blouse & blazer and find that I quite liked the outfit. It reminded me of one of the final scenes in the movie Pretty Woman, where Vivian and Kit walk out by the pool of the hotel and Julia’s wearing a red shorts suit. Now, her blouse was tucked into her way-too-high-waisted shorts & her blazer’s shoulder pads were a bit out of control but my more modern version had a similar vibe …or feel at least, when I was wearing it.
And to just quote that fabulous scene . . . “those were very specific cases of crack heads” which makes me laugh harder than the “Cindefuckinrella” line that follows * the title of this post is also from that scene
