I finally settled on matching this skirt with my silk black tee, cream cardigan and pearls. And I've decided that when in doubt on which shoes to wear, just go with leopard. This actually turned out to be my favorite ways I've worn this skirt so far! I'm sad Boden no longer sells this particular pattern, BUT they have several really lovely options (and more here) right now. Their skirts can be a bit pricey, but they are very well-made, thicker and more structured. Both options are on sale right now, and I'm super tempted to pick up another one...the mustard and purple is calling my name...
I also have to give a quick hair shout-out. I've been loving my locks lately, and it's all thanks to my sister Kristin Meeks at Parlor Jewell. If you live in the Chattanooga area, she really does the best cut and color (and I'm not just saying that because she's my sister). If I lived closer to home, she's be the only person allowed to touch my hair.
Cardigan: J. Crew Factory (exact in a ton of amazing colors)
Shirt: Ann Taylor (really pretty alternative)
Shoes: Madewell (similar with bow, d'Orsay option)
Necklace: J. Crew Factory (exact)
Earrings: J. Crew Factory (exact)

I looked at this and said this is a total "Ally" outfit . I just started following your blog a week or so ago(read back a year or so though). I feel like we have basically the same closet. Its great to see similar outfits and twists we each put on them. Just wanted to say hi....
ReplyDeleteHi Ally! So glad you stopped by and commented. It's great to find people with similar style and clothes...:) It's part of the reason I started blogging — to connect with people and find outfit inspiration.
DeleteThanks for linking the Ann Taylor shirt! I am looking for silk shirts but haven't had much good luck. Great outfit!
ReplyDeleteI hope the shirt works for you! I'm continuously impressed with Ann Taylor. I think they're a bit pricey, but thankfully with frequent sales, you can get some great stuff at a reasonable price point.
