On Ask Phivy, we recently got a question about what would be a great first day work outfit & I mentioned one of my favorite go-to is black cuffed shorts, tights & pumps. Actually, that answer is still in the queue waiting to be published, so you'll see it soon, haha. Since it's summer (and my workplace is a little more casual), I opted out of the tights - plus my shorts aren't BOOTY shorts - so it works out.
Kitson LA was having a huge sale & I scored this silk tank for $30! I love the little anchors on it. SO NAUTICAL, MAN. The zipper in the back is a really nice detail, except it makes it difficult to tuck the shirt into (like into a high-waisted skirt) because the zipper will fold & bend all weird. It's best to just leave it alone. I also love that the tank is loose (forgiving) so I added a fitted black jacket pulls the entire outfit together.
This weekend, Rye Bread (isn't it weird that I refer to him as "Rye Bread" on my blog & "Ryan" on Ask Phivy? HE IS THE SAME PERSON, WHY DIFFERENT NAMES?) & I are going to Santa Rosa! We'll be visiting his eldest sister & their cousins. Since we've been there a handful of times (and there's only so much we can do there, let's be honest), I'm interested to see what we'll find ourselves doing. Any suggestions? I guess I can always go for some more wine tasting. NEVER ENOUGH.

lol "WHY DIFFERENT NAMES?"
ReplyDeleteOooh, i love this outfit! Jacket and shorts? One of my faves.
You can go biking while wine tasting! Is there such a thing as a BUI? (biking under the influence)
My office is ultra-casual, so I love these work outfit posts. I really do need to stop wearing jeans and t-shirts to work. I think I said I was going to do this on my blog like 3 years ago and that was a total fail.
ReplyDeleteGreat top and great smile dear :) You are wonderful! I like your jacket and shorts very much, such a cool look!
