Spring is Springing, Bitches! (White skinnies/bold blazer)

Sort of a Pin to Post, but not a direct one. I've been seeing this sort of thing all over Pinterest;  a bold coloured blazer paired with white skinny jeans and a striped shirt. There isn't a specific pin, although really, if I looked hard enough I bet I could find something like it out there.

If I had to pick an alternative title for this post, it would have to have something to do with Yachting... Not that I would wear pumps on a boat, but this outfit feels quite preppy/yacht club to me. Which is pretty funny, considering what my style was like in high-school  I bet there are old classmates who would never pick me out of a line-up, based on this outfit. I was quite the rocker back when they knew me, so I figure I might not be easily recognisable in this get-up.

So, I am trying this new Polyvore thing, so that you can find the pieces a bit more easily of you dig it. If I was able to find the exact item online, its in the Polyvore list you'll see at the end, but otherwise I just found a reasonable facsmile.




Accessories are key! Pearl necklace, charm bracelet, rose stud earrings, and nude pumps.






Look at that sneer on the right!


On me:

Blazer: Torrid (past season; the one below is coral, not indigo, but that's an even more on-trend color for this S/S 2013); Jeans: Target (as per below); T-shirt: Costco (you can find some great stuff there for cheap sometimes; couldn't find a plus t-shirt easily to link, but a tank would work just as well); Shoes: Target (as per below); Earrings/Bracelet: Wet Seal; Necklace: Not sure, probably Claire's or something

  1. You are far more braver than I--those jeans would be scuffed, smudged or smeared with something before I even left the house; white and I are dangerous together. But you look fabulous in that outfit. Way to wear it!

  2. Thanks!
    Trick is... leave the house before the kids wake up and want to touch you... and don't eat lunch until after you take the photos! They also go back into the closet as soon as I get home! White really is a magnet for stains! :)
