maxi plaid

sometimes i still don't know my own style. or i don't think that i have a concrete style direction. i just like lots of everything. in my mind i gravitate toward simplicity but in reality i tend to pile things on and slowly remove things until i run out of time and need to leave the house. i didn't really want to wear this outfit today but i was running late and forgot to shave my legs and it was 75 today so i didn't want to wear tights and blah blah blah. it's a fun look though. a little wonder years, a little chiquita banana. a lot of unwashed karaoke hair.
but i do want to expand my style philosophy so i am re-banning myself from stores located less than a mile from my house. it's acutally more stores that you would think. i don't think i shop that much, i just drop by occasionally and peruse. i find myself perusing the same kind of stuff over and over so in order to not buy the same ol' same ol' over and over banned i will be.
that is all.
did my post title make you giggle? i laughed and laughed. i kill me.
blouse- kohls
belt- new york and company
skirt- thrifted
wedges- meier and frank

Oh GIRL! I'm loving that skirt! I feel like you do sometime, like "what IS my style?" but then I allow myself to reinvent myself every day. One day I may be channeling my inner gypsy...the next I'm thinking Audrey Hepburn. The good thing is we'll never get into a rut that way! ~Serene

I love that skirt. And I feel your pain with the unshaven legs. I wore tights today (even though it was warm), b/c I am on a waxing thing. Had the first one, scheduled the second one. Can't decide if I am going to stick with it, b/c it don't like the grow-out. Crazy.

haha, yes - you ALWAYS make me laugh in your posts!

i'm really liking this skirt! plaid is hot ;) and i don't know what my style is either. oh well, who says one needs to have just ONE style? i like what i like, that's good enough for me!

I am so in love with this skirt! All the pretty colors and plaid! Love that you paired it with white and I adore your sandals.

I question my style a lot too! Sometimes I'm so girly girl and the next day I'm wearing all black, leather and studds, my mood and where I'm going and people am seeing tends to infere in that too! ... I think whatever makes you feel pretty, works for you, I could never stick to one really! ... Back to you! SO diggind your bun, looks awesome!
