WIW: The Rockstar/Lumberjack side of me

This is my first WIW in a loooooong time, and it's kind of a boring one. I wore this to run errands and take out the trash. Exciting, right? The combo of skinnies, tank top and a button front shirt as a topper with ankle boots is a FFBO for me, so I hope you're ready to see more like it! This is a boys shirt, and I added the pyramid studs myself. While it's far too short in the sleeves (which I don't mind), it's just the right length for short-waisted me. Bonus picture of our pretty kitty

Beanie: Goodwill
Buffalo plaid shirt: Target, boys department
Tank top: Target
Jeans: Gap
Boots: Nine West
Jewelry: Various sources

Okay I totally need to hit up my Goodwill for a beanie or beret! I love yours and how it looks with your shirt. Very cool lumberjane, and the studs provide some nice rock and roll. I sometimes feel too masculine in outfits like this, but you have the curves to keep that from happening. You look great! Love the cool jewelry and boots, too!

This totally takes me back to my 90's grunge loving plaid self. Of course I think it's super fab! Excited you are posting for non-office dressing too as i can always take direct inspiration there for my no office lifestyle.

Love your outfit, and I especially like your skull bracelet.

I don't find this boring at all! The jewelry, the studding, and the boots add interest. And I love how you got the shirt from the boys department -- it totally works!

Love! You are reminding me of NicoleB who manages to look adorable and tough at once.

Una: When I was still a dedicated lurker, nicoleb was my secret style twin!

And to everyone else: Thanks for the positive feedback on the outfit, and the cat. I guess we'll keep her

I had to click just to see what a rockstar lumberjack looked like, and you definitely pull that off! Also, your cat is adorable.

I think you look great. Not what I expected when you said it was what you wore to take the trash out. And our cats could twins!

The kitty is adorable. She looks bemused by all the activity.

I'm reminded of Nicoldeb, too. Playful, but tough. You look fab in the silhouette, and the choice of beanie and plaid looks natural and easy on you.

Love eveyrday outfits!
