Descriptions of your daily ensembles

Shell - 8/4

So, I love how tanya, ana, dani, patience, etc. post their outfits every week. i'm tempted to post mine at the end of the week as well, but sometimes all the photos at once can be a bit overwhelming. so, i'll just post mine everyday, and maybe link to the full week on my friday post.

today's outfit was inspired by kyle's fabulous pink/coral skirt paired with a crisp white blouse. i paired a white wrap top with a plaid dress that i converted into a skirt. i finally rebeaded my favorite gold necklace (on fishing line - so it shouldn't break this time!), so i had to wear that today.

White blouse - BR
Plaid skirt - forever xxi
pink cami - express
nude flats - local boutique
gold necklace - marshall fields

Shell: I am learning so much from everyone here and feel like I have a long way to go. It is a lovely compliment to have inspired someone else. I love your chunky necklace, the way you have defined your waist and the little lacy cami peeking out. The nude shoes strike just the right note, I think, and keep the leg line nice and long. Bravo. Can't wait to see more!

I think the look is flattering and chic. I agree with Kyle on the nude shoes, of which I'm a big fan generally. I like the way they elongate a look.

Is that an elastic waistband, Shell ?

angie, the skirt does have a shirred panel at the back (similar to this dress http://www.forever21.com/produ.....;Page=all) but i assumed covering it with the belt would make it less tacky. maybe im wrong?

Hardly tacky my dear Shell and thanks for the explanation.

I’m used to you looking a lot more streamlined and that’s why I asked. The skirt seems to float away from the body instead of lie flat and it’s not “that type of skirt” – does that make sense? It looks poufy but it’s not. BUT a sweet outfit and you’ve got great legs :-)

Shell, very nice outfit, it shows off you gorgeous legs. It's going to take me some time to get used to the CSR so I'll just use words for now. Do you have a stronger colored cami (like berry?) to put under your shirt? I like the cami peeking out, just wondering what another color would look like.

Sweet! I love a plaid. The shoes are great and of course your gams look super.
