My shoes came!!!! They're a little tight and I think I'll have to cut a toe off but they're so worth it. The shirt fit like a grandma shirt and I don't have time to go to the mall to return it so I guess I'll just throw it away.
Don't you love that I wore blue and teal together? Chase didn't. I think it makes my red shoes pop even more. That or my pasty Asian legs. Gotta represent.
I'm wearing a JCPenney trenchcoat (free with gift cards), Old Navy shirt ($4), Tulle skirt (c/o Tulle), JCPenney shoes (free with gift cards), and JCPenney bag (free with gift cards).
Buy: red bow heels, bowler bag
Shop: trenchcoat, striped shirts, teal skirts
I love this look!! It's very "Sea Side" cool. That's something I'm going for... but all I have right now is a skirt. This inspires me!

I really like the bright shoes. Sorry your new shoes pinch, and you have a grandma shirt. Maybe instead of throwing it away you can give to a grandma?

Don't pitch the shirt! I bet you could take it in!
ReplyDeletelove those heels!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're not serious about throwing the shirt away, right?
ReplyDeleteI love the teal with the red together. And your smile is gorgeous, Elaine!
Don't throw the shirt out! Give it away or sell it, I'm sure there are plenty of people that would like it.
ReplyDeleteyou have a GORGEOUS smile.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is amazing. Blue and teal? Yes please. I'm always a fan of stripes and red together.
ReplyDeleteLooking hot!

ReplyDeleteYou should donate the shirt :)
i like the blue and teal together!! they really do make the red of your shoes pop more! =D
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is great! I love how the blues play off each other, something I would never think of to do myself but I love how it looks!
ReplyDeleteyou have such a great smile. and I love your shoes and the nautical theme.
ReplyDeleteLovely outfit! i love the stripes, and your smile :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Love this outfit! I'm going to have to copy it soon.
ReplyDeletei love your outfit girl!!
ReplyDeleteI agree... don't throw away the shirt. Find someone with a sewing machine and have them take it in (it takes like 2 seconds), cause it's cute. They do a favor for you, you do a favor for them.
ReplyDeleteVery cute outfit... I love the shoes!
Teal and red is one of my favorite color combos. They were my colors for my wedding too! Love your outfit too.
ReplyDeleteNo way, I love how the blue and teal look together, and the touch of red is perfect. And the coat looks fantastic too!
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are too freakin cute!

Blue and teal are a surprisingly good combo.And the red adds a pop of colour. I'm a follower now!
ReplyDeleteI love this and would wear it everyday. I love doing the blue with red--I feel so accidentally patriotic. Thanks for the modest fashion looks!
ReplyDeleteOh this is so wonderful! I love seeing you in brighter colors Elaine :) The blue does work well with the skirt and it really does make your shoes pop hehe!
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is so pretty! Love the bright red shoes :D
ReplyDeleteVery monochromatic with a splash of red. Love. it.
ReplyDeleteI agree that blue and teal look awesome on you as do those cute red shoes. Your smile is a great accessory, too!

I love that you said "Smiling's my favorite!" That's one of my favorite lines from Elf! You are the cutest, and are on my blog roll. Thanks for having such an uplifting site!
ReplyDeleteThe shoes are so pretty. Definitely worth cutting a toe over, hehe. Teal and blue is a great combo I've done it before and it works. Love the skirt.
ReplyDeleteThe shoes were the first thing I noticed! They def pop out from this outfit :)

You look so gorgeous...great pics...lovely post and blog!

ReplyDeleteYou are rocking the blue and teal!
ReplyDeleteand just so you know: I can out-pasty your legs any day! ;)
I love this outfit and your smile! You look so pretty! Those shoes are HOTHOTHOT.

ReplyDeleteCannot see anything wrong with the blouse, think looks just perfect tucked in! ... Like both hues of blue paired together, great choice with the shoes, so unexpected!

I love the blues and pop of red! Cute!
ReplyDeletewait, are you dissing grandma-style (it's real, i checked)? because if anyone can rock a grandma look it's you...and me. i love grandma-chic.
ReplyDeleteloooove the shoes.
gorgeous shoes....
ReplyDeleteSo fab! LOVE!! ♥
ReplyDeletexo.
Cute shoes! I like teal and red together, tell Chase you're breaking all the "rules!"
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I'm so glad you're out of your uninspired funk :)
ReplyDeletethe blue and teal are great!
ReplyDeleteAw, you have such a pretty smile! I like your outfit, too :)
ReplyDeleteLove the teal and the blue. And glad to hear you're not really throwing the shirt away ;-). This way you can send it to ME. Although, I admit to getting a huge thrill out of throwing clothes away...you know, clothes that are too damaged and worn to even donate...I feel guilty, and then liberated...and every so often I throw out perfectly almost new underwear because they are SO UNCOMFORTABLE.
ReplyDeleteBut, uh, what else am I supposed to do with worn underwear? Sell it on the internet? (which is a joke sort of like your throw out joke...but when I have said this to people in real life they look at my horrified...so people don't get things in person either!).
much love: K
Love the blue and teal. What does Chase know? You look amazing. I like that your stripes are wider than Breton ones - it adds an unusual edge.
ReplyDeleteyou keep it so classy and simple at all time!!loves this combination
ReplyDeleteYou look pretty Patriotic =) I think the shoes are really cute and the blue does make them pop!
ReplyDeleteBellesme
