Real World
Thursday, January 6
Worn to work and to meet up with the jeweler to get the design process started on my engagement ring! Ah!
The Outfit…
Magenta Cardi - J Crew
Black Ruffled Blouse - Geren Ford for Urban Outfitters
Metallic Tweed Pencil Skirt - J Crew Collection via Diva (Alexandria, VA)
Black Tights - drugstore
Black Ballet Flats - Bally
Black & Magenta Snakeskin Bow Bangles - Rachel Leigh, gift
This outfit was inspired by a really similar one that fellow blogger Tanya wore way back in November. When her photos popped up on my Google reader, I immediately thought of my own black and metallic skirt, and vowed to recreate the look. This is why I love reading fashion blogs - in an ideal world, flipping through Vogue magazine, I would be able to pick out items I own and style myself off of the editorials, but isn’t seeing the clothes on real girls in their real lives so much better?
