Red Stems

Open-toe shoes mean spring is around the corner - hallelujah!!! Maybe one day I'll be able to wear these wedges again sans tights.

Wearing thrifted AE denim jacket ($5), Shade Clothing graphic t-shirt (free with gift card), thrifted belt ($1), DIY skirt ($3), F21 tights ($8), and secondhand wedges ($7).

I swear I'm not purposely pulling my skirt up to show off my hot legs - skirts and tights don't seem to work well together while you're walking....or posing, in this case.

I am sooo digg'n your hair wavy!! Beautiful.

Your outfit is very cute too! Your sewing skills are to be commended!

wallflower said...

I really love the colours except for the blue. I would probably wear some sort of brown cotton piece over that instead.

Looks great though.

Bethanne said...

Love the jean jacket to top that outfit off! Super excited for bare legs weather!

Jen said...

RicAdeMus said...

I'm not sure about the wisdom. Hopefully! LOL. My friends seem to think I give them good advice.

You're right--and still modest! =)

spoozyliciouzz said...

Hi there, green skirt! And what a lovely pair of tights you´re wearing. Although i do like the jeans jacket: did you think about wearing a cardy instead?

B a la Moda said...

I love this mix of colors. Red and green! I haven´t thought of that except for Christmas. I like your wedges with tights.

Imogen said...

I love your skirt and I like the way you styled it especially with the red tights.

Alex said...

I adore those tights and they look amazing with the skirt and wedges! Not so keen on the denim jacket with the rest of it but that's just my personal opinion and I don't really like them anyway!

Kathryn said...

Great outfit. I really like the denim jacket with this outfit. I would have hesitated to wear the green and red together, but it works really well.

Melmo said...

this look is great. i love the skirt and the wedges. you have wonderful hair, girl :)

girlxoxo said...

Love how you styled this with the tights.

Sal said...

It looks like spring has truly sprung! Cannot wait to do tights and sandals myself in the coming weeks ...

eek said...

I love the pattern on your tights! You can definitely rock the tights/sandals look. Fortunately in TX we go straight from tights to bare legs!

Sophie Carmo said...

Would a slip help with this problem? Those tights are gorgeous.

DEA said...

I just got those tights in the cream color and can't wait to wear! Love the color combo!

Rad_in_Broolyn said...

Love this outfit. Way to use bold red. I need a pair of brilliantly colored tights to punch up my neutral outfits.
Also, I know that you dress modestly, but I have to agree with you. You've got some hot legs!

briannelee said...

Love those tights and those shoes!

What Would a Nerd Wear said...

i love those wedges on you!! and showing off or not, you look terrific in this!! such good proportions.

Leah said...

You do have hot legs. Hahaha! I love the color and pattern of your tights. xoxo

Jesslyn said...

That shade of red works well with that green skirt! Doesn't come off Christmas-y!! Nice choice.

Londyn said...

You look amazing! Great color combo.

the hollister abolisher said...

Viva La Fashion said...

i love how you paired that skirt with those tights. adorable. :D

chai am woman said...

the color of the skirt is so awesome love it. and i never would've thought to wear the jean jacket - i am a brown/black/navy neutral kinda girl so i would've immediately played it safe. i like the way it kinda 'pops' off of the skirt and the tights so to speak. adds a lot of texture! :)

Julie said...

I love your pics because I really miss the SLC downtown. Plus you look great!

Fashion Therapist said...

I absolutely adore your hair that way. It suits you well.

LyddieGal said...

I love your cool stripy tights! yay for spring!!!

katrina said...

those chevron tights rock and i can't believe their from f21. it's too bad their tights run a wee bit too small for me! the colors of your outfit complement each other so well.

juliamarisa said...

nice color combo! and i totally feel you on the skrits with tights thing. apparently wearing a slip helps with that problem, but i'm too lazy to go out and get one.

Mat said...
