Coffee in the Canyon

June 6th, 2012



J.Crew Hat, Cosabella Bra, T by Alexander Wang Tank, Satine Skirt, Vintage Clutch, Nixon Watch, Prada Heels, Essie “Lovie Dovie” Nail Polish

I bought this skirt on major markdown at Satine a few weeks back with the intention of waiting for the right dressy occasion to slip it on. My patience started to wane though, so I decided to wear it during the day mixed with some unfussy basics (like a Panama hat and a drapey tank top). There’s something refreshing about the juxtaposition of fancy-meets-casual, even if I did get a few stares while grabbing my coffee.

    This is a really cool look – I’ve been noticing a lot of black and bright colour combos lately – hot pink, neon orange and pale mint are all winners! x

    A neon-on-neon statement piece like that skirt is difficult for most people to wear (including myself), but you rocked it! Love the casual/dressy aspect too.
