C'est La Vie


I adore this shirt. It's one of those pieces I felt the universe threw my way as a favor -- designer label, my style to a tee, a perfect fit and only ten bucks. And yet I always manage to wear it at the most inopportune times. The bulky buttons running up the back make it uncomfortable for sitting, so of course I chose to wear it yesterday for a car ride and a stint in the salon chair. And why not pair it with my most easily wrinkled shorts! A well-intentioned but ill-advised outfit. Definitely not as bad as the time I wore it on a flight!  


Top: Alice & Olivia
Shorts: Gap
Shoes: Kenneth Cole
Necklace: Forever 21 with vintage pin

@Kitsune-kun Thanks! I thought they were vintage, but I just checked and they're Kenneth Cole! I thrifted them a few years ago.

ADORE that top on you...it's so ultra sweet and feminine, but still bold with the contrasting white. And it's perfect with the pop of orange on bottom.

Oh - I love this top - and wish I could pull of those shorts. :( I'm too pale and they would wash me out - but you look ah-mazing.

Also - your hair looks so cute here, lovin' the darker color.

From 1 KS girl to another! :)
