Sorry for the holiday hiatus! I have lots of great pictures from Christmas, but while I'm busy resizing all those, here's a basic outfit post for you featuring one of life's simple, fashion pleasures: a button-up collar over a crewneck sweater.
Polo Sweater Knock-Off featuring a Unicorn Logo: Vintage
Suede Mini-Skirt: Vintage via the Getup
Wool Over-the-Knee Socks: Sockdreams
Shoes: Random 6pm clearance buy
Sunglasses: Thrifted
I can't possibly photograph this outfit without a creepy twin shot of me and MC.
How's this for oversharing about our outfits: for YEARS, MC and I worked at the same office as I silently obsessed over him, secretly in love but entertaining not so much as the wish -- let alone hope -- that he would one day be mine. On frequent days when he wore a perfect, trim little sweater with his oxford collar peeking out, I looked on longingly and thought "Oh, to be Matt Collar's collar...."
Adding to the entertainment value to this embarrassing story is the fact that my ardent attraction to the well-dressed MC led to this:
The inspiration for a song I recorded with Bulletproof, the pop punk band I was in back in 2006.
That was three full years before MC and I even started dating.
I love the pink sweater with the suede skirt.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
