Sometimes You Just Know You Look Good...

Sometimes, you just KNOW you look good. And this outfit was on one of those days.

I just recently bought these awesome shoes at TJ Maxx and I couldn't wait to work them into some outfits. This is actually the second outfit -- the first one never made it to the blog. I felt sexy, and I felt extremely feminine all day long.
It was beautiful outside, and the wind was picking up my hair, my skirt and my earrings -- these earrings are almost like tiny little windchimes. I love hearing the tinkling in my ears all day long, and they always remind me of warm weather.

I really wanted the shoes to be the stars of this outfit, so I went for something simple and ended up with a color blocked outfit that I really felt great wearing!

Do you have any wardrobe items or accessories that you equate with Spring or Summer?

  2. So pretty! I love purple and your shoes are great.

    I don't have a summer item at this point but I am going to try for cute little summer skirts as I am not into shorts this year. Besides, I live in extreme South Florida and skirts are cooler.

  6. Those shoes are just fantastic! I also applaud you for being able to wear a white skirt and not immediately spill coffee on it, as I would.

  7. Meli22: the best thing about the color blocking look is that you can use any colors! try it!

    La Historiadora de Moda: thankfully, i dont drink coffee. ;)

    amazingly enough, this skirt is over a decade old and for the most part, still clean and white -- and it has lasted through that many clothing sizes too! it used to hang low on my hips and now it is high-waisted, but i can still make it work!
