Top: Ann Taylor (similar here) / Pants: Gap / Shoes: Macy’s / Clutch: Banana Republic (old) / Sunnies: Ralph Lauren / Jewelry: Stella & Dot rings, Square ring made by me, Silver bracelets made by me
If you look very closely at the shoe picture, you can see a measly little mosquito on my ankle. Those jerks! Mosquitoes were swarming my husband and I as we took these shots, more so me than my hubs. This must be the south’s version of blogger paparazzi. Do blogger paparazzi exist??? Let’s pretend they do for the sake of this post. Here is another mixing of boy meets girl, I really love the pairing of opposites. See my last pairing here.
TIP: Take something ultra-feminine and pair it with something very casual or tomboy-ish, they will play up each other’s qualities and tone them down all at the same time.
I love pairing ultra-fem with tomboy! This look is stellar…very, very cute…A+!
So glad you like! Thanks for the love. I’m very into ripped pants right now. It’s a new thing called “Bum Wear”
LOL! Working from home and teaching dance for a living has caused me to fashion my very own version of “Bum Wear”. : )
i agree with Britt…i love wearing some rolled up boyfriend jeans with a very feminine blouse, and heels of course!
Yes, you gotta add the heels! Or a big, sparkly necklace! xo
I am a fan of girly mixed with rugged. I am NOT a fan of mosquitos. Glad we all agree.

Glad you agree too, we are all definitely on the same page. I am a girly/somewhat disheveled woman (with several to many mosquito bites), hear me roar!
Love that top!
Thanks Emily! xo
Love this shirt. Perfect title for this outfit!!

Thanks love! I saw this top on Oliva Palermo and just had to have it. I love her style and the top, but to own the same article of clothing as her made me giddy. I also got it on super sale, can’t beat that:) xoxo
Shoes are amazing!
Thanks Kristen! They are my new bff’s:) xoxo
:):):):) Love the outfit. You had me with the heels. Nice find and awesome photos..
Thank you Raoul! I love a guy that appreciates a good shoe:) Glad you like the pictures too!
Love how you combine your feminine shoes and top with your pants.. Great idea! You look fab!
Thanks girl! One of my favorite mix ups! xoxo
Very, very cute! Love the contrasts here.
Hey friend! I’m just a walking contrast all the time:) xoxo
What a pretty top! I love how you “edged it up” with the heels and crops!
Thank you friend! This top is owned by Olivia Palermo also; I have to add that in there too because I’m so psyched I have something she owns. Stalkerish, maybe??? Fashion follower, for her, yes!
I love the mix of your jeans and that top! So ruggedly sweet 🙂 I hate mosquitoes! They are so annoying!

Thank you so much Amy! It’s a very comfy look too which is always a plus:) xoxo
What a darling outfit! I want that top! I will need to rip off (lol) your styling.
I’ve always said mosquitos, flies, fleas and roaches are so unnecessary.
You can absolutely rid off my styling, I don’t mind! Lol:) Glad you like it! I so agree with you too, the pesky insects are completely unnecessary.
Those shoes are lust-worthy!
And I love how you have mixed the glam with rough. It gives the look a great feel.
Cheers,
Laura
Thanks Laura! Prepare to see these shoes a lot, they are my new loves:) Glad you like the look! I loved your metallics:) xoxo
Metallics are great aren’t they?!
I just found a lovely silver metallic top at the op shop for $6. It’s not quite as shiny as I wanted but it’s a good looking top that I should get a lot of wear out of. 🙂
Cheers,
Laura
Yes, I’m loving metallics. That is a superb deal you got! I love great deals like that:)
I’ve become such a fan of thrift shopping. I’m just waiting for the day I buy back something I used to own! 🙂
