purpose & description

This isn't a new year's resolution, but I've made it a goal for myself to never dress down in public ever again. For the past two weeks of winter break, I've been dashing around in sweatpants, big t-shirts, clashing sweatshirts, and worn-in UGGs -- so unlike me, as you can imagine. Everyone was traveling and out of state though, so I logically assumed no one would see me. After a massive closet clean-out, I vowed to restore myself to propriety once again. Good habits are hard to break. ♡ Pink headband with satin blue bow ♡ Betsey Johnson silhouettes earrings ♡ Freshwater pearl necklace ♡ White Gap classics tank top ♡ Erin Fetherston for Target navy blue and velvet jumper with hearts ♡ White H&M cardigan with pearl and bead finishes ♡ Black tights ♡ Taryn by Taryn Rose platform pumps with glitter-bedecked heels ♡ Miss Dior Cherie eau de parfum

You look sharp! The mini skirt is hot and the pantyhose prevents any accidents.

I like that outfit, especially your dangle earrings. The glitter on your sweater is a nice touch and the pantyhose adds class. You can consider adding a pair of tall boots to it to add a touch of mystery.

Black and white is always a classic. Paired with those earrings and those tights, you look absolutely splendid. I wonder if your classmates will recognize the new, elegant you after your usual sweatshirt and casual jeans schoolgirl look.

The navy blue jumper and cardigan look very nice. Get rid of the tights and the very uncomfortable heels. Go with bare legs and flip flops to reveal some skin and look hot at the same time.

I like how you successfully got the layered look to work with the white smock over the blue top. The mini skirt makes you look like you have very long legs and the tights just look elegant.

By this outfit, I'm guessing you live in the UK. I think you awesome. However, navy on black can look strange. Go for block colour.

White top is good, skirt color is good but length is too short. Never wear pantyhose, they are two decades out of style. Black Versace flip flops would match the outfit well.

Great cardigan over black top. The pearls add a touch of elegance. I would go without the tights though as tights are very 1980s. Instead of those uncomfortable heels, a pair of Old Navy flip flops would match the outfit much better. The long earrings stand out and look great with that outfit.

Cute, but the sweater doesn't do much for your shape!! I would cinch the waist with a skinny belt in a fun color.... The shoes are super cute but they are a statement piece and would work better with a simpler, cleaner torso line. The dress is fine, but I would cinch it with the belt and add some bright shoes. I like each piece, but together......?? I'm not sure.....

the cardigan makes you look boxy. add a black belt to the dress. take away the pearl wear different shoes (skinnier heel AND NO GLITTER!) and voila a better outfit

i like jur sweeter..the glistter is a nice touch

not sure about the cardi..a belt would look good round the dress..which is very pretty.

way too much volume!

Just way too much going on with this. Less is more.

belt the cardigan with a thin belt :)

you look like a hot air balloon

LOVE the earrings.

posted 1/7/2008, 4:26pm, HaleyBobb2333092 says:

I agree with Annie. The pieces are awesome, but the sweater overwhelmes you in THIS outfit. Otherwise, great!

posted 1/7/2008, 9:31am, AnnieChin says:

All these pieces are so fun! But together it doesn't flatter your figure. The sweater would look great with a fitted top and skinny jeans since it's flowy. A button down cardigan over the dress would show off your waist more.

You have a fab shape so i think you should swap the sweater for a good quality vest in black - that will be uber glam!

posted 1/4/2008, 6:35pm, What2Wear says:

I would change this up and go for the Nicole Ritchie look: nix the skirt and get some black skinny jeans instead to wear with black flat boots and a simple long necklace. Then, tie your hair up in a loose, messy-but-classy knot with the headband. And pair this all with a big bag and you're ready to go!

posted 1/4/2008, 3:28pm, StunNotStunt says:

I like your resolution! I always feel it's better to be overdressed than underdressed, so I definitely like that you don't want to be dressed down in public anymore. I think the outfit is different and packed with personal style, so I can't hate on that. The only thing I would change is maybe the shoes... I love the shape and the color and the thick heel, but the glitter along with the glittery top may be too much for a casual day.

posted 1/3/2008, 9:31pm, Sab023 says:

individually, I think these pieces are great. Together, however, they just don't mesh well. The loose skirt with the loose top and unbuttoned cardigan doesn't give you and shape. I would suggest swapping the top with a more fitted cami, and then maybe a thin belt over the cardigan to cinch the waist to a more streamlined silhouette. I also think the shoes are a bit much- you already have statement earrings, and there's a sheen to the sweater, so you really don't need to go for the bold shoes. i think black booties would look incredibly chic with this look, or even plain patent pumps.
