Fresh Hair & Not-so-fresh Chambray

Oh, hello there. What’s going on, you ask? Not much, just rocking some bangs like nobody’s business. And also rocking this skirt like it’s my job for the second day in a row. In case it’s not obvious, this outfit from Saturday is topped off with a fresh haircut and highlights. You know what wasn’t fresh? This shirt. I was going to make this chambray my repeat item tomorrow (for my Take One, Pass it On remix), but by the end of the day I started noticing that I didn’t exactly smell like a field of fresh flowers. If you know what I mean. I realized that I got this shirt over the summer (June maybe?) and I’ve never washed it. Laundry was never my forte.

I just grabbed this skirt and these shades from Madewell a couple days ago (and when I say “grabbed,” I don’t mean I stole them – I literally did grab at these sunglasses as soon as I walked in the door and saw them because they’re so freaking awesome). I’m pretty excited about the skirt because I’ve been wanting a black and white striped skirt for awhile, but it’s hard to find one that doesn’t make my lower half look like a bloated upside-down pear. I like this one because it doesn’t taper into the knee, and I think the way the side panels break up the lines creates an optical illusion that’s a little more slimming.

In fact, I love this skirt so much that I’m making it my Take One, Pass it On item, so you’ll see it again tomorrow! (In case you forgot already, this cardigan is my repeat from yesterday.)
