You know, economic distress has its perks. I remember going to a mall at the end of 2008, and it seemed like everything was on super-duper clearance. I got a great dress from Ann Taylor for $59 and this amazing top from Banana Republic. I am pretty sure it was marked down to $11.99. 100% silk, too. Over the years I have realized just how versatile this blouse is. I don't see such ridiculous sales any more.
Top - Banana Republic silk blouse, fuschia. Size Medium Petite
Skirt - JCrew Number 2 pencil skirt in Super 120s, Deep Lagoon. Size 8
Legs - Patagonia Capilene 4 Expedition Weight base layer, black (6pm.com)
Cardigan - Lauren Ralph Lauren Open Front Merino Cardigan
Boots - La Canadienne Paulina, black (6pm.com)
I think this outfit could stand an accessory like a belt or maybe a bracelet. Accessorizing is not my strong suit...
I have that exact skirt! Hellooo JCrew after-Christmas sale! I tried wearing it with tights a couple days ago but the skirt kept sticking to them. I'll have to find some tights made out of a different material.
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling you and I could put together a few identical outfits if we tried.
Oh, JCrew Christmas sale. I love you.
