Sometimes when you’re shorter than 5’4″ and younger than 35, it’s easy to look like a small child if you wear things like, say, a flared skirt, tights, and pink shoes.
And sometimes you just don’t give a crap because you’re a grown up and you’ll be a lawyer soon. So there.

The take one item pass it on to another outfit is such a fantastic idea.,..
i dont think you look like a kid! you look put together and grown up!
LOVE the shirt under the sweater–this whole “pass it on” concept is genius!
Thanks Alyssa! …for recognizing how smart I am 🙂
ha! I totally relate. I’m 5’4 and 32, but have a bit of a baby face (I still get id’d like 1/3 of the time)…sometimes I wonder if I just look child-like instead of whimsical and adult. 😉 This is cute – those shoes are adorable, and I love this look with your ikat shirt.
I actually get a little annoyed when I don’t get carded. I mean really…are you THAT sure I couldn’t be 20? Or are you just lazy?
lol – the drinking age here is 19, but they have a policy that they are supposed to ID anyone who looks under 25. I REALLY don’t think I look 19, but I could definitely pass for 25 most days.
I have to say, I love this outfit! It looks so comfortable but polished!
Thank you! It did feel quite comfortable. And polished.
I love a flared skirt! So girly and sweet. 🙂 Love this look on you! That patterned shirt is beautiful.
I love how you took the shirt from a casual outfit to a dressy one. Wahoo closet versatility! And I get that as a short person too, but those shoes are worth it.
I wish that shirt was current! It is adorable. I love the way you paired it under that sweater.
I am just swooning over your skirt! I have been looking for a skirt with that shape (plus the elastic waistband and pockets) for a long time, and can’t find anything! I love how you paired it with the structured shirt and sweater look. Great!!

i got carded buying wine last month… standing tall at 5’2″ and being a size 4 sure does help. my children were with me (10,8,4) and could not understand my excitement at having to prove i was over 30 (here they card if you appear under 30). maybe the cashier was being a tad generous, but at 45 i will certainly take it!
