Today's Gospel has to be one of my favorites. I may or may not have to blog on my thoughts about it, but not today... tomorrow... for our Marian Monday link-up. Yup, a bit of a shameless plug there. All for Our Lady though.
Thanks to Deme @ Crinion Clan and Kinsi @ Anima Kinsi, I took a couple of their past What I Wore Sunday tips this morning and took a "summer top", tucked it into a pencil skirt, and created a "cooler weather" ensemble. I also [somewhat] mastered the sock bun a few days ago. It still fell out a few times, so it obviously still needs some refining. Or perhaps just some more bobby pins. Either way, it may be my new go-to do.
Blazer: Banana Republic (Yup, the inner lining is a bright fuchsia. Didn't meant to "flash" that.)
Top: Old Navy
Belt + Skirt: Ross... $5.96... shwing.
Shoes: Too long to remember

Jiza, this outfit is fantastic! You look beautiful, and I am a total sucker for navy and yellow. Major all around SCORE for this one!
ReplyDeleteI am loving everything about this outfit!! I want a yellow pencil for under 6 bucks. What a steal! You are rockin' it!
ReplyDeleteCute! I think I'll have to try that warmer weather top with a cooler weather skirt/jacket combo thing.
ReplyDeleteOoo, I love that yellow skirt! The whole outfit is so nautical-classy-pretty, well done!
ReplyDeleteI love everything. I have such a hard time with skirts. I need a blazer and would someone please help me master that sweet sock bun. You look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteCutie-cute! And I love a good shout-out ;-) Pencil skirts make the world go around, don't you think? No? Well, they're still pretty great anyhow!
ReplyDeleteThat fuchsia lining is totally fun!
This outfit is stunning!! I love the color combo and the "V" stripes are wonderful. It makes me smile! You look beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOoooo I love this, yellow and navy are so cute together and the v stripes are super flattering on you!
ReplyDeletelove this outfit!!
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit on SO many levels! Not only is it modest and classy, its slightly nautical and I love the yellow paired with navy... and though you didn't mean to flash the pink liner, I actually think that is awesome too. I am a big fan of bright colors, even if I am usually scared to wear them!
ReplyDeleteI love the pink liner on the jacket! It totally works with the other colors. What an awesome ensemble you have today!
ReplyDeleteI agree. I think the pop of color looks intentional and awesome.
DeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteThat is one SERIOUSLY adorable outfit - ALL of it! =)
ReplyDeleteYour WIWS posts are always one of my favorites!! Loving the yellow and navy, and really just the whole outfit! Plus the price of that skirt!!! How do you always look so lovely and put together with having two little ones?!?
ReplyDeleteI'm obsessed with chevrons, so naturally, I adore that top! Also, I can't remember what branch of the service your hubby's in, so forgive me if I'm about to touch a nerve, but as a girl who grew up near the Naval Academy, I always love a good navy and gold pairing =)
ReplyDeleteP.S. If you tease your hair before rolling it into a bun, I've found, it stays put much better! Your ponytail will look like a bird's nest, but your bun will be nice and neat and fluffy!
DeleteAwesome Chevron top!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this outfit! The Chevron top is awesome- I love blue and yellow together. And great job on the sock bun!
