outfit details: gingham button-up [jcrew factory] polka dot skirt [jcrew factory] sandals [target] sunnies [bp nordstrom] watch [bp nordstrom] lipstick [MAC girl about town] tortoise barrette [jcrew]
outfit chat: to some, this outfit seems ridiculous. let me explain why it is absolutely perfectly imperfect! i loved styling this + going out for an afternoon drink with my honey + then on to a girl's dinner date. what is better than wearing a fabulous outfit + having fabulous plans!? so this skirt will most likely be one of my top favorite purchases for my summer wardrobe. i purchased it at an awesome jcrew factory sale for our week in california + have worn it so many fun ways since. let me get explaining this fun outfit! pairing this skirt with the gingham button-up makes sense for a few different reasons. [first], pattern play is everywhere right now! it is so fun to feel so mismatched, a little on the wild side, but yet look so classy + clean. [second], because the colors, together, still look pleasing to the eye. [third], because the patterns make sense together. if i had a gingham shirt + a plaid skirt? now, that is horrible pattern play + shouldn't be worn. the lines of the patterns would make you confused & it just doesn't work. if you notice, i used my accessories to tie the outfit together. when trying to accomplish a pattern play look it is important to keep the accessories very clean + coordinated.
