21st Century Flapper

IMG_2335

Saturday, September 25

Worn to a housewarming at Sara’s house (SO CRAZY we are now neighbors) and out on the town for PK’s birthday! I got the boy to snap a couple shots as I was running out the door…

The Outfit…

Grey Silk Tank with Orange Bows - Thread Social via Gilt

Orange Silk Pencil Skirt - J Crew

Taupe Chain Handle Bag - Bally, sample sale

Long Silver Necklace - borrowed from a friend

Gray Mary Janes - Nine West via TJ Maxx

When I saw this tank on Gilt, I just HAD to get it, because how often do you find something wildly adorable on its own, but also exactly matches your favorite kicky orange satin skirt? It was meant to be. And even though it can’t be worn by itself since it falls at that awkward looks-like-a-nightie length, I went a bit outside of my comfort zone (read: tucking it in and belting the waist) by wearing it long. I rolled up the skirt a bit at the elastic waist to make it a mini, and the whole look ended up like a fun 21st century flapper.
