Blue Leather Shoes





{Shirt: thrifted | Skirt: H&M (similar) | Shoes: Target | Necklace: Target | Bag: F21}

I haven't worn this skirt in a while, and today at work when I looked down to admire my blue leather shoes, I noticed that the skirt lining was peeking out from the bottom edge. I thought of every logical solution in the book: sewing kit, safety pins, quick trip to the tailor. But unfortunately I was in a bit of a time crunch and didn't want to walk into my next meeting with my lining exposed! So I did what any normal girl would do. I folded the lining under itself and stapled it together. Worked like a charm.

  3. brilliant outfit.... and I am pretty sure I'm obsessively in LOVE with your necklace! It's too bad I don't live near a Target :(

    I would love to have you over at Little Miss Mama and see what I wore today with the $8 Peplum Top I just made {thanks to a HUGE Old Navy Sale}.

  8. Thanks Elina! This top is actually from a thrift shop in Portland, OR. I picked it up while visiting my family last summer. BUT, I do love Secondi in DC. It's in Dupont and I find treasures there on a regular basis! Check it out if you haven't already, and let me know if you have any other favorite thrifting places in DC!

  9. Oh, cool thanks. Yes, Secondi is great. The other one that I recommend is Current. Buffalo Exchange is also opening up this month near Current's 14th street location, which could be great!
