A Flouncy Top

top- Nordstrom , shorts- Uniqlo , flats- allbirds , sunnies- DIFF Eyewear , watch-Michael Kors(similar here ) You may recall these fabulous shorts in my first #FunShortsFriday post , from almost two months ago. And while, I haven't posted a shorts look every Friday, it's been a fun way to end the week when I do and what I hope is a positive, if small mark, on this summer.  I'd love to see your #FunShortsFriday or #funshortsfriday so use either hashtag and tag me if you post your look, follow me on Facebook , Twitter , or Instagram  I'm all for sharing creativity and style here during this summer of Covid.  Also, t his is like the 1st time (as an adult) that I've worn a summer-classic shirred bodice top. What took me so long? I guess because I thought they were for "girly-girls" or pretty girls or younger girl, or girls thinner (or in better shape) than I. But finding one rendered in black and overcoming those societal expectations on beauty took some time.

Casual Classy Blue Lady

blazer- Gap , cardigan-Zara(similarish here ), shirt- Uniqlo , jeans-Levi's, loafers- G.H. Bass Factory Outlet , necklace-Banana Republic(similar here ) You may recall that I was a very classy lady in this post  and of course I was wearing the same blazer as I am in this OOTD.  There's something about a camel blazer that brings up the class factor. It doesn't hurt that I'm all sorts of monochrome--realness with a navy cardi, button-down, and loafers. Speaking of navy and classy, looks like I'm ahead of the curve, with Pantone's 2020 Color of the Year  Classic Blue! I'm a HUGE fan of blue in all of it's shades and very happy this year's color takes a sharp left from last year's " Living Coral " 🤯 

Classy Lady Coming at You

blazer / sweater -Gap, culottes-Mango(similar here ), boots-Nine West(similar here ), bracelet-Michael Kors(similar here ) There's nothing more classic than a camel blazer to top off an all-black outfit. To give this OOTD a more modern twists I went with an oversized blazer, and these dramatic culottes, instead of a skinny cropped trouser. I hadn't planned on looking so chic and grown-up, but that's what happens when you outfit with urbane pieces, the classiness just oozes forth. 😉😜
