Laundry coat, Necessary Clothing pumps, D.I.Y. skirt, Forever 21 blouse/bracelet, thrifted belt
This coat brings back memories of when I lost my wool coat while vacationing in Las Vegas and having to buy one on the fly…it was winter break so all of the winter coats were sold out at most places and finally I found this coat in the most perfect cobalt blue and a simple yet girly cut-..on clearance. Love at first sight? Yes.
I've worn this skirt so many times on this blog that it's ridiculous (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). However since I made it with my personal tastes in mind, I LOVE to wear it with everything. I plan on making more circle mini and calf-length skirts like this one out of thrifted fabrics.
Nothing much happened today. I cooked and cleaned for Tim's parents as they're both still recovering from surgery and played with the puppies. :)

  13. I love your dress coat! It could seriously be worn on its own buttoned up and it'd look like a dress! The hues of all these blues are wonderful together! I think blue over blue is so chic and so easy on the eyes.

    To your comment on my blog: you too exemplify the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" in your outfits too. I never grow tired of you in your many skirts, heels, and lace! Here's to another year of blogging for the both of us :)

  45. I think that coat defines the cut of my dream coat. It's perfectly girly but not overly so. I would love one in red or even black with big gold buttons. :)

    And you are right....I could see this outfit on any other girl and think of you...this outfit is so you.


    Look forward to hearing from you

    Love
