Wow, it seems like I started this series ages ago!
Finally, here I am with the last two outfits. It was a fun ride, putting these looks together. It was stretching a bit, and it was harder to do in the day-to-day wearing than styling for the blog. I’ll share more on that on Friday though, when I recap my favorite 10×10 outfits and share my new insights.
LOOK 9:
[ Burn tee, c/o Bridge & Burn | skirt, c/o Bridge & Burn | cardigan, c/o IMBY |
I think this look is as close to ‘athleisure’ as I’ll ever get. I love this sporty skirt so much, as evidenced by the amount of times you’ve probably seen it on the blog or Instagram. Speaking of Instagram, what the what?! Stories?! As one person put it, it’s kind of like Instagram and Snapchat had a baby. So far, I kind of like it! It will be interesting to see if it replaces Snapchat, or if the buzz dies down in a few weeks and people stick with the latter.
Anyway, this look is super casual, super comfy, but still looks pulled together. (Thank you cardigan.)
LOOK 10:
[ top, old from Nordstrom | skirt, c/o Bridge & Burn | clogs, Moheda via Lotta | purse, Baggu ]
I love how this skirt dresses up! The casual-ness of it makes me feel like I’m not going to accidentally be overdressed. It’s still pretty chill for being a black skirt. Overall, I think this look would be a little more pulled together with a clutch (like this one that doubles as a crossbody, or this oversized one that has a lovely back strap detail) but I don’t have one, so little bucket bag it is! I wore this outfit to my friend’s art gallery reception (sounds so swanky!) and felt really good in it.
Hope you’re having a great week – making Instagram stories and real-life stories. ;)
Cheers,
Andrea
Loved your 10 outfits! I really like that long cardigan and am thinking about adding one to my fall purchases. Are you excited to get back to your other clothes though? Have you started thinking fall yet? I’d love to see if you are adding anything……I feel I need inspiration! Instagram stories has been cool since I follow so many more people there than snapchat. Your voice is lovely! Still working up nerve to post a video of myself! Ha!
Thanks girl! I find I really, really like the length of this cardi, it keeps me from feeling too, I don’t know, preppy? when wearing a cardigan.
Yes! I am thrilled to be back in the rest of my closet. Of COURSE I’m thinking about fall. ;) I am on the fence about investing in a pair of Elizabeth Suzann pants, I’ve been wanting them for more than a year, but still weighing my options. What about you?
Thank you for the nice comment about my voice! It definitely feels narcissistic to take videos of myself, I’m not sure how I feel about that! You should post something soon! :)
Andrea!
I love that cardigan! How tall are you? I want to make sure I am not dwarfed into a giant marshmallow haha
Sincerely, Tania
Hi Tania! I am 5’7. It’s definitely not an over powering cardi, it has a ‘demure’ drape if that makes sense! ;)
