Close enough

15/30 Banana Republic shirt; Thrifted skirt and belt; Payless wedges.

I came up with this outfit after seeing this lovely pin a while back. Close enough, yes? Still haven't heard of/got an account with pinterest? Let me know and I'll send you an invite!

Anyway, I probably should have ironed this skirt. I probably should have also gotten dressed earlier than 5 pm too...and maybe eaten something other than ice cream for lunch. I can still use summer vacation as an excuse though, right? It's almost a surprise I get dressed at all, although showering, getting dressed, and then blogging about it is a nice break from foreign currency translations.

Lady-like.

Express shirt; Thrifted skirt and belt; Target wedges; LinleyShea necklace.

I have no idea what this thing is that I'm standing on, but it's next to the library on campus and I was there today returning some books (only a week late). I'm pretty sure I've never turned in a library book in on time, but luckily for me, on campus they don't have fines.

Anyway, I thought to put these colors together after seeing this post by Kendi. I figured it was close enough. I've also never had a skirt this length before, it makes me feel very lady-like. I think part of getting older (and maybe the whole-getting a master's degree) makes me want to dress more modestly and over all more grown-up. Do you guys get like that too? At what point do you throw away the graphic t-shirts and mini-skirts? Not that I have a lot of those anyway, but still.
