I don’t know if paisley + fringe + turquoise = any kind of style (Southwestern boho??) but this week it was my style, at least for a day. It started with my new fringe ankle boots, which I thought would look cute with a dress. I hadn’t worn this paisley dress in a minute, so that’s what I picked. The sleeves aren’t a good length for bracelets, so I picked up the turquoise in the dress with this ring set. The bag doesn’t “match” color-wise (that’s why I like it), but the fringe ties echo the fringe in the boots. And there you have it. That’s how this outfit came together: from the bottom up.

And speaking of bottoms up…happy weekend 🙂

I posted a downward outfit selfie on Instagram the day I wore this little ensemble (Friday last week). I find that a lot of the time, my IG captions are much wittier than my blog content. Maybe when I’m faced with the endless space of a blog post, I just start rambling instead of coming up with a good one-liner…you know, like I am right now.

I don’t usually repeat my jokes, but this one was pretty good, and I can’t think of anything better to say now. So if you already follow me on Instagram, sorry:

Rocked my white jeans today. Because the “no white after Labor Day” rule is like the “no same-sex marriage” rule: no one follows it anymore except out-of-touch middle-aged women in Kentucky.
