CROP TOPPED

 

H&M Top // Zara Skirt // Zara Sandals // J.Crew Bag, Similar

A crop top just makes everything a little more fun.  Maybe not everything, probably just the outfit but I guess that's good enough.  Try it out, I think you'll agree.

In other news, I bought this purse for my mom last Christmas because she told me so many times how much she loved it and then she never used it.  I would feel like a gift failure except for the fact that now I get to use it and I am totally enjoying it.  She might not be getting it back, but I think she's cool with it, it's not the first time this has happened...

ONE WAY ONLY

I wear a lot of skirts for work because they are an easy way to feel pulled together and cute.  However because I wear them to work I don't like to wear them any other time in my life because they are "work" skirts.  It seems like anytime I try to wear one for something else I don't like it because I have this fear that then I will have to go to work.  Silly, I know.  So I found this skirt and thought it was just too cute to pass up so I designated it my non-work skirt so I could be happy wearing it off the clock, and happy I am!  Do you have any pieces like that in your closet?  That no matter how cute they are you can only wear them for one part of your life?
