Blues Clues*

June 28, 2011

*And a very cool ring!

It’s always hard to make slouchy look chic, but I think the way to do it is to pair it with something sleek & simple.  I think skinny jeans and strappy heels offset the oversized shirt and slouchy purse, which keeps it from looking sloppy.  I also kept the colors in the same family of blue, making the outfit look cohesive.

My favorite parts of this casual outfit are the little details, like the hearts on my shoes or the fantastic ring that I bought recently from Wendy Brandes Jewelry (you can purchase it by clicking here).  It’s simple, but really unusual because it’s an unexpected shape.  The bonus picture below is of Dominic getting into my TwitPic that I sent to Wendy to show her how the ring looked on me.  I think he’s due for more outfit pictures since he keeps wandering into mine!

Outfit – Naked Zebra shirt (ModCloth); H&M jeans; Alexander McQueen shoes; Foley + Corinna Moto Hobo bag; Wendy Brandes Asterisk ring

    I love the oversized slouchy look, and you pull it off very well!! The skinny jeans and steeply heels were the perfect contrast to your oversized top. I think I need one of those rings…maybe an exclamation point.

    P.S. You son is cute as can be!!

      Thank you! Aren’t those rings fabulous?

      My son is so funny. Anytime I’m taking a picture, he says “I want picture, too Mama!”

    The heels and sleek skinnies really glam up that shirt. You look pretty darn fabulous. I love love LOVE the purse. I think we have similar taste in purses, because I’m always purse envying you.

      We definitely do have similar tastes, because I love the looks you rock on your blog, too. :)

      Thanks Kimi!

    My favourite parts are the details as well, I think you have a nice look here, I love the blue military styled plaid shirt, in addition to you wearing this outfit with the pants rolled up. That Wendy has amazing pieces. :)

      Thanks Madison! I think this may be a “go to” look for me, because I’m wearing somthing similar *looking at my rolled up jeans*

      I think I’m going to get that stake neckalce from Wendy as well. It’s that vampire thing, lol
