Getting very literal today on our coffee break!
To me, this outfit is 100% Paloma-inspired. She is the mistress of pairing tees as suiting separates, so this is probably the first time I've tried wearing a t-shirt as part of a "work" outfit. Second, the skirt is Paloma-approved, something I've been eyeing for some time, but pulled the trigger on only after she confirmed that she had flagged the same one. I reversed the bag (yesterday's Madewell purchase) to its stripey side because of Paloma's fondness for stripes + florals. To top it all off, during our coffee break today she said she's also been looking for a new pair of black peeptoes. Complete!
Really no surprise, picking up plenty of good habits here from my friend. I'm having a lot of fun wearing this outfit today, even if it requires standing absolutely straight at all times so no lumps show on this ultra-tight skirt. I could definitely use a couple of inches to work this skirt, but I'm just happy it fits.
Another note - love Paloma's outfit today. The cognac and grey; the subtle way the shoes, sunglasses, and tote all go together. So glad we were able to get proper pictures today!
This morning, my daughter was sitting on the bed watching me get dressed. When I put on this shirt, she said, "That's a cute little shirt, Mom." At first I was like "what about this shirt is little?" and then realized that I probably always refer to her clothes as "little" because, well, they are. So she's just mimicking me in her compliment-doling. Either way, if it's good enough for my three-year-old, it's good enough for me.
In other news, I just realized that I have worn something from Urban Outfitters virtually every day this week... weird.
