Outfit of the Day: Shopping In My Closet.

Out of sheer desperation, I pawed through my closet looking for inspiration for a blog outfit and lo, I found a top that I bought back in January (thanks, Past Me!) and tucked away for warmer days. I mentioned it here, just for reference. Anyway, here you go:


I mean, it's a cotton t-shirt but isn't it CUTE. It's the Wilt Ombre High-Low tee. I don't normally buy expensive tees but this one had such nice drape and details and it makes me feel all summery. It's roomy (I'm wearing a medium) and has a flattering pointy drop hem: 


Wilt also has a similar cut tee (also on sale) in solid colors if pink ombre isn't your thing and this asymmetric long-sleeved version is also really cute.  I'm not sure pink ombre it's usually my thing but I love how light and cheerful it is. I suppose you could do a front tuck: 


But I'm not sure how successful this look really is. Ha. My jeans are Madewell boyjeans from a few years back and they magically still fit? It's unpossible but I'm going with it. This is the current version of the basic boyjean but I really like this pair with the ripped knees. Or, if you are into the patchwork, check out this pair of adorable Pilcro jeans! Now for details: 


I'm wearing my Madewell mixed chain horn pendant necklace set that I talked about Monday and I'm so glad I bought it! It just elevates any old thing I wear. Bonus: it's on sale plus 50% off so it's basically free. (Seriously, it's $12.49 now and I am mad.) My earrings are from Amano Studio and I love them. Highly recommend supporting this small company! My lipstick is a mix of Kosas Rosewater and Fringe


I threw my Athleta long hoodie over the whole thing because it's still spring and my house is cold, y'all. It's such a good, cozy thing. Because I'm basically in denial, I keep trying on my new Lo & Sons Pearl with the Madewell strap:


Isn't it cute! I do use this for my weekly grocery store horror-outing and it's nice to have a small, hands-free bag. Here's another view: 


My shoes are Everlane Day Glove flats but I'm still mad at Everlane so I'm not linking them. Madewell has a similar pair in black and neutral or you can get some cute soft red flats from Fitflop of all places. (Or, just buy the Everlane flats secondhand! That's what I did.)

  1. I could never have predicted that grocery shopping would become the most stressful event in my life. It's like a zombie video game.

  2. SO CUTE! I am once again impressed with your ability to take mass-market items and craft an individual look. Is your jacket black or navy?

  3. I would love to see the rear view of that shirt to, you know, see if it looks good from the back. It's unexpected but I love the pink ombre on you!

  4. Gorgeous pics! Love your dewy makeup too! I basically look like Penny from Big Bang when she was playing video games too much and got a Cheeto stuck in her hair. You have inspired me!
