blouse: vintage, thrifted // skirt: vintage, thrifted // bag: vintage // clogs: lotta from stockholm // sunnies: tumbleweedsi'm actually really glad i suddenly remembered i had this blouse because it's lightweight, super soft silk, and as far as clothing goes, it doesn't get much better than that. i actually didn't buy it intending to wear it regularly, though. when my pop, stepmom, sister, sister's boyfriend, and husband went to the thrift store shortly before christmas to get our tacky christmas outfits, i picked it out only because it would clash with my red and black furry sweater and my hideous wool plaid pants. it's been washed and patiently waiting wear on a hanger in flojo's room ever since, only i never thought about it; but when i suddenly remembered i had it, it was one of those lightbulb moments. now i can't wait to wear it more often! one more thing, the next time i wear this skirt, i'm getting pictures BEFORE i leave the house so i can prove to you it looks and fits better before all the wrinkles and stretching out!
i've been MIA for a few days trying to get some things accomplished and tending to life's demands, so how have you been doing? how was your weekend, and did you do anything for easter? i ate too much, but hey, what's new?
Love those shoes Danielle

thanks, they're my favorite!
DeleteWhat a perfect outfit for Spring! The blouse is great...I bet you're glad you bought it for that Christmas party!
ReplyDeletei'm glad i bought it, too; there's nothing quite like paying $2 for a blouse that turns out to be a favorite!
DeleteI love this outfit! Fantastic for spring. The blouse is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'm all about solid coloured clothes too - I have too many tattoos to go for heavily patterned items!
i bet your tattoos stand out nicely against solid colors! i want more!
DeleteHow'd you forget about this awesome top? What else is hiding in Flojo's room.... ?
ReplyDeleteYou look adorable, love the shoes and bag with this outfit. Hope you had a good weekend, and I want to hear about your shopping excursion!
i do have a few other things in flojo's room that maybe i should take a second look at!
DeleteYour outfit screams warm-weather-I love it! the shirt AND shoes look so comfy! and that bag is adorable, but I can't get over the shoes!

it's funny you say that about this being a warm weather outfit, because i thought, "this looks like i'm going on some sort of tropical safari"! the shoes are SO comfy, and they instantly became my favorite pair!
DeleteYAY your clogs! those are super cute and may need to get me a pair. i love the color too! but i may need to get navy ones to go with my nautical themed self. i too have a hard time finding plain clothes that i love. i do always look for them but end up finding fun patterned stuff. i think i have this mentality that plain clothes is boring but it always looks so nice to look classic and you look super great! like you are going to on vacation to relax. by the way..can i have your bag? yes, please and thank you ;D

i think the same thing as you, that solid clothes can't be fun like patterns, but when i see solids on other people i think that i love the way they look and i need more of them in my life!
Deleteyou know, i actually only paid $2 for that bag, and i bought it from a shop that gives $100 of the money made to the humane society, so it's a win/win!
finding solid clothes that fit well and have some interest to them be it a nice fabric or cute collar is really hard. Its almost as hard as having to fill the water pitcher every night..I mean come on ;)
ReplyDeletedefinitely hard. in my opinion, even harder than having to make more tea whenever i run out ;)
DeleteThis is such a gorgeous outfit! I've been looking for a pretty/silky light blouse like that. Adorable!

thanks, heather!
DeleteYou are so freaking cute! Can I just come steal all your clothes and wear them? Oh wait, already did. Especially your underwear.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I went there.
Deletei'm just glad you took the new ones instead of the comfortable ones that have been broken in.
DeleteDamn!
DeleteYep, I need me some of those lotta's :)
ReplyDeleteyou do need some! they match with everything, and they're sooooo comfortable!
DeleteLove that blouse - the colour, the cut, all of it.
ReplyDeleteI also ate too much for Easter. Wahey! :D
i think it's impossible as a perfectly sane person to not eat too much on easter ;)
DeleteLove this color combo Danielle - especially with that straw bag! And those shoes are too cute :) And I definitely ate too much on Easter as well!
