WIW: The Blues

August 8, 2014

Loving all shades of blue these days - navy, cobalt, periwinkle, pastel - you name it.

Today's outfit started with this floral tube skirt in shades of blue and white. I topped it with my oversized boxy linen pullover (with white cami underneath) and added my bone/silver sandal shoes and navy handbag. To finish off the outfit, I chose my silver wedding band and a thin silver bangle, black/white specs and a swipe of bold pink lipstick.

Hopefully this all works together and thanks for looking :)  As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.

P.S. Thank goodness for make up BTW - I'm suffering from an ear infection and got about 4 hours of sleep due to the pain. Seeing the doctor this morning (thank goodness!).

    Shannon this looks beautiful. I always love seeing this skirt. I am so sorry about the ear infection, they are horrible. Hopefully some antibiotics will fix it. You don't look unwell at all:)

    Oh Shannon sorry about your ears but the infection hasn't unbalanced your sense of style - you look fab!

    Love the blues. Hope the doc makes you feel better. Little sleep makes for a long day.

    Love the blue! Wow - you look amazing for not feeling well. Get better soon (and have another coffee ;)  )

  • Dee replied 9 years ago

    I didn't know they made a floral version of the tube skirt! The blue looks great on you and I hope you feel better soon.

    Great colour for you - I swear I've never seen anyone wear a bold lip as nicely as you , too!  And boy, that Coach bag is fitting right in like it was always there, isn't it?

    Back from getting both ears flushed and both are infected - such fun!

    Dee - I've never seen the floral version of the skirt in stores. I actually came across this one on eBay.

    Lisa - I have decided this Coach bag is the PERFECT bag. It's just the right size, love the structured shape, and the navy seems to go with everything.

    Thanks ladies for your lovely comments :)

    These blues are so beautiful on you, and the overall silhouette is wonderful too.  Sorry you aren't feeling well.  Hope it goes away soon!

    Cute! That blue of the top is the best blue on you (what I have seen!). And I love all kinds of blues too! YLF!

    ETA: sorry about your ear :( feel well soon!

  • annagybe replied 9 years ago

    I like that skirt on you.
    Boo on the ear infection.

  • Beth Ann replied 9 years ago

    Love your skirt!  I have a similar one that is getting lots of wear!  The sleeves and fit in the sweater are spot on, too.  You look lovely, even if your ears are pounding!  Feel better soon!

  • Windchime replied 9 years ago

    More love from me for your skirt...and top...guess I love it all on you! I've had ear infections--they're awful--hope you're feeling better by now.

    Sorry about the infection, but you look great!

I started playing dress up when I was 4 years old and haven't stopped since! My income doesn't match my tastes so it's all about figuring out how to thrift my way to a fashionable life while tossing in a few delectable items.
