Although I know very
little about fashion, I feel that Katie inspires me to “dress like I mean it”,
which mostly just means she picks out my clothes.
Allow me to introduce
myself. I am Annie, avid denim wearer, red lipstick enthusiast, nanny, and
knock-knock joke connoisseur. My style is comfortable and easy, because it’s
very hard to run after children in a ball gown. I am inspired by bohemian and
retro styles and I enjoy trying to pull off styles that probably don’t suit my
personality (currently in search of pleather pants).
This weekend, I was
reunited with the lovely Miss Bineham, long time friend and soulmate. We
decided to put together an outfit that transfers well from summer to fall.
To bring you this summery fall outfit, we
paired a skirt I had bought the day before at Target, a denim shirt from Liz
Claiborne, and circle sunglasses all the way from Alehop in Salamanca, Spain.
The transition from summer
to fall is always a strange phenomenon. Especially here in Oregon. We want to
keep summer alive, but at some point we have to come to terms with the fact
that autumn is among us, and that we’re freezing. For me though, I’ll probably
start wearing pants when frost starts to form.
I have a special spot in
my heart for tied-up button down shirts. I love the way it looks with
high-waisted shorts or a skirt. I think there is a time and place to button your shirt and wear it
normally, but if I can tie it, I probably will.
To get this look:
Top: JCPenney
Skirt: Target (Target
online doesn’t have the actual skirt but here’s one similar):
Totally
nanny-fied shoes: Naturalizer
Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters
