A few weeks ago, we talked about spotting army green around downtown… I’ve always been a fan of the color, and when I saw this olive green silk blythe blouse at J Crew, it was love at first sight. Actually, I can pretty much accredit this blouse for my resurgence of button up obsession. It’s the perfect color that goes with everything… even another shade of green. I think it was on Man Repeller that I saw the pleated skirts at American Apparel, being as there are three stores within a 10 block radius, you’d think I would have run down to the store, but no… not so much. It took ages, and I tried on the pleated maxi that Leandra has, and didn’t fall in love. What I did fall in love was the midi mini pleat skirts, so much I got three. Woops. Anyway, what can a girl do? Except hope they come out in more colors.

LOVE the color of this skirt! I saw your belt on Instagram and swooned! And now seeing the whole outfit together, it’s just divine!
I think the other skirts are a little bit longer no? I think the mini pleats are cute, and knowing AA, they’ll probably come out in a billion colors soon!
Oh yeah, the other skirts are maxi’s this is a midi… i like the shorter length as it goes better with my aesthetic. thank god there is something else besides a mini, i couldn’t stand my thighs!
The gold shoes are pretty dang amazing.

The colors of this outfit are stunnig! I am simply in love with that belt and the gold shoes. I’ve been rediscovering the beauty of the button up style shirt myself; I pulled out a “tried and true” favorite that I bought as a teenager and am having fun discovering new ways to wear it.

oh, i can see you rocking the full skirt and butto up shirt quite well! it has a distinct 50′s feel to it, which no one does better than you!

LOVE that skirt! The color, the pleats, the length, everything — it is so perfect. Awesome belt too — I have a thing for feathers. I even have a tattoo of one, though it is horribly done. :/ Ah well!
Every time I stop by your blog I want to go to NY more and more! You look great. xx
oh no! i bet it’s not as bad as you think! but anyway horray for feathers, they never get old!
