Okay, listen. This outfit doesn't work. I mean, it works in theory, it works on paper, it just doesn't work in real life. But I'm okay with it. The separate components all make me happy and sometimes that's the best you can hope for. This sweater is a layer-y, slouchy dream...but not when paired with a pencil skirt. It's just too much volume with no shape. But, paired with skinny jeans and heels? It's good stuff. I'll do that next time.
So, yeah:

ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteTotally know where you are coming from with the components not working when they should. I wonder if it would work tucked in? Not usually my style, but maybe?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately no - the skirt is really fitted and the sweater has too much volume (as well as a chiffon layer).
Deleteyou could do it with a belt, no?
ReplyDeleteOh, you and your crazy logic. ;)
DeleteOkay I totally thought I commented on this outfit but I guess I didn't. I bet it's cuter in person when you're moving and 3D, though I think it's cute here too. And that's what I wrote before... at least in my mind...
ReplyDeleteAnd then I come back today and see you and I have almost the same shoes though mine are from MiZ Mooz or Me Too or one of those brands and I have had them for years and always forget about them and never know how to style them. So you have inspired me to dust them off and try again!
Wear the shoes! That pair is one of my favorites.
DeleteAnd you're right, so outfits just don't work in photographs, though I'm not sure this one looked much better in 3D. Still...I kind of liked it.
