It is Friday and I rarely post on Fridays. Mostly because I need two free days to dress like a bum and not have photographic evidence of it, especially all over the internet. But I thought this was somewhat blog-worthy. You've all seen these pieces before and it's not really a shocker but I thought I did pretty well picking this out while I was half-awake this morning.
And now my bum dressing will ensue as I finish packing. We are leaving the Lake of Salt in exactly one week! I'm 90% happy and 10% sad - I just found out Modest Mouse is going to perform free at the Twilight Concert Series this summer. The one time something good happens in Salt Lake City and I'm not going to be here!!!


Big thanks to Meet Virginia for the blog award!

Wearing Collection B faux leather jacket ($55), F21 necklace ($8), faux pearl necklace ($5), faux pink pearl necklace($10), secondhand Zara shirt (from Meg), thrifted belt ($1), J Brand jeans ($158), and Geox flats ($37).
gorgeous! i love the feminine necklace with the jacket!
ReplyDeleteVery cute outfit indeed for having assembled it half asleep! I love the striped collar shirt with the multiple necklaces!! And the jacket finishes it all off nicely, very chic!

I love the flower necklace with this, and your bangs look so cute styled that way!
ReplyDeleteYou look great and hip as always. Hope the packing is going well - I am so excited for you and the hubs!
ReplyDeleteThis is you dressing like a bum? Wow, we have very different definitions of that :) I love all of the necklaces together!
ReplyDeleteI agree. Not a slight chance of being a bum dresser here. You look amazing! I always admire your styling of black pants/jeans and flats. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love this whole outfit! The necklaces add the perfect touch.
ReplyDeleteOk if this is you dressing bum then me normally is completely hideous homeless hippy ugly! You look gorgeous...still sad that you are leaving us! Even though we never met ;)
