The Fashionista Nerd

Shoes, the more uncomfortable, the happier the outfit, the more comfortable, the happier the feet

SHOES: the more uncomfortable, the happier the outfit; the more comfortable, the happier the feet!

Sofft dark red pumps purchased at DSW shoes

Happy outfit and feet, thanks to my so fashionable patent leather dark red Sofft pumps :) Whoever said "you can't have your cake and eat it too" knew nothing about ingenuity!

striped sleeves white t-shirt Jcrew yellow skirt anthropologie brooch

I’m still undecided on whether or not to be cliché tomorrow- red shorts, striped navy and white cami, and navy blue summer sweater with subdued sparkly accent buttons.   If by chance Billy Idol’s Rebel Yell comes on during my commute home, I might wear this instead.  Hey, the sleeves have stripes, the skirt - has an element that reminds you of fireworks, and the brooch, sparkles like the stars J  

Fashion Notes:
White vintage tee strip-sleeve with scoop neck - J. Crew
Yellow Pleated Skirt - J. Crew
Mustard Flower Brooch - Anthropologie

Anthropologie Midday dress stripes black white grey fashion accessory flower brooch trendy
Fun and flattering, with a tad bit of flirty, I'm wearing one of my favorite Anthropologie dresses. Anthro's Midday dress (sorry, no longer available except via eBay) is a causal effortless glamorous throwback piece.  The diagonal juxtaposition of its trendy stripes are flattering on most body types.

Accented with a black flower brooch, also from Anthropologie (also no longer available) and a black med sized belt, this dress can be dressed up with pumps and jewelry or dressed down.

Casual Friday Style skinny jeans from TJ Maxx, foral tropical top from J Crew, cardigan from J Crew Factory, belt from a Calvin Klein dress, and sandals from DSW

Top: J. Crew
Cardigan: J.Crew Factory
Skinny Jeans: T.J. Maxx
Belt: Marshalls (from a Calvin Klein dress)
Sandals: DSW Shoes 

This Friday's causal style comes by way of J Crew, TJ Maxx, and DSW.  Usually during this time of the year, a pair of jeans wouldn't make the casual friday cut.  The weather forecast had the high at 80 degrees. Ended up being around 84 degrees and being a bit humid.  Anyways, here I am looking fab and relaxed.  All pieces are older items from my closet. Probably the last time till mid fall before I rock a pair of jeans, too warm!  All pieces are older.  Check out my similar look links:
