Jangly Bits

Sal* published a piece today about “being seen” and standing out because of one’s style choices. Today, I’m afraid I was not only seen, but heard. I jangled up and down the halls.

Blouse, J Crew. Skirt, Herman Geist (thrifted and shortened). Tights, Apostrophe. Shoes, Gianni Bin. Bag, Simply Vera. Belt (worn as a necklace), thrifted. Belt (worn as a belt), The Limited (thrifted).

I have those days, too! I swish or clink through the hallways and feel so conspicuous.

Love the dual belts in this look.

I adore this outfit! the skirt print and the shoes are my favourite parts :) I like to wear a lot of jewellery, so sometimes I jangle too...

i wanted to mention that in your blog recommendations you might want to add "www.opheliaford.com". she's one of my favorites. i'm a stylist from los angeles in cincinnati visiting my mother and she told me about your site, that it was advertised frequently in the paper and that i should check it out. what you're doing is quite an undertaking. congrats. you should also check out "www.theuniformproject.com". kind of similar to what you're doing but in a very different way....

You look so festive! Such a pretty skirt. I also love that you clarified that it was a belt, worn as a belt. :)

I hope you don't work in a library! Because it would be hard to justifying "shushing" other people ;-)

not only does my jewelry jangle, but i wear my keys and ID badge on a lanyard around my neck (i'm a teacher). every one knows where i am at all times! it's like i have a bell around my neck!

I love this outfit. You are rocking these tights like nobody's business! I have that bag and this makes me realize that i need to use it more often!
