Black sweater, Charlotte Russe. Olive belt with leaf clasp, H&M. Olive skirt, from my USMC service uniform, altered by me. Black fishnets, Danskin. Black pumps, Bandolino. Gold earrings, thrifted.I was leafing through my new In Style last night and there are a number of pages devoted to belts. Belts over dresses, belts over shirts, belts over sweaters, belts over blazers, and even a few belts on pants (and through belt loops!) Is it just me, or does this trend coverage seem about a year late? I thought belts were big last spring. Not that I mind if they’re “in” again. I’ll be glad to continue wearing all the belts I purchased over the last year.
Today’s belt:
This detail is lost in the overall photo (and beneath my desk at work), but I think the lace trim against the fishnet tights is very pretty.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI happened upon your blog while searching for velvet jackets (I love velvet...). I have to say, it's so cute how you have such a HUGE smile in all your pics!! I have a friend who keeps track of what she wears everyday in a little calendar. your blog reminded me of that.
Anyway, i just have to say you have great style. keep that smile!
:)

Very cute outfit! I agree with the trend thing. One thing I noticed is that last season it was just the really big bulky belts where as now they seem to be showing a larger variety of belt types.
ReplyDeleteCute outfit. You look very slim in it as well. Though you are very slim anyway. :)
ReplyDeleteat which H&M did you get your belt? the one in columbus?
ReplyDeleteI got the belt in Chicago - way back in November.
ReplyDeleteWere you really in the Marines? I am really surprised. The Marines are not known for having such gorgeous women in their ranks. I love the shot of your knees, to. Don't you just love looking down and seeing that?
ReplyDeleteYes, I was REALLY in the Marines. It is often hard for people to believe! I'm not as dainty as I appear. :)
ReplyDeleteThe beautiful jacket makes the outfit.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty without being too frilly or feminine.
Very stylish and great for work.
Wow...another sexy outfit! I really love your style!
