Today’s outfit is classic, with a twist. Button downs are so classic, and I love seeing them styled with denim for a slightly casual, cool look. I chose to style and review this button down from Romwe because I liked the stripes and colors, and knew they would look good with a white or blue bottom. Also, since it’s long sleeved, it will be a good fall transition piece.
I was so happy to finally get to wear this skirt! I saw it on sale for like $10 at Zara, and figured I could do something with it. The ruffle and fray reminded me of the dress that Yara Shahidi wore on the 2017 BET Awards blue carpet. I figured pairing the button down with this skirt would mix it up a little from the typical pairing of it with shorts or pants, and voila, this look was born.
I decided to go further with mixing it up by giving my go to gold hoops a rest, and trying these pink earrings on. I kind of like them with this outfit, and kind of think hoops would’ve looked better, lol. Keeping up with the pops of color, I decided to wear my burgundy purse. I kept the shoes neutral, but there are actually embroidered flowers on the back of the heels.

Hot. Stuff.
Love the twists you made! I wonder if the buttons would gape since I have a larger chest. That’s why I don’t usually buy button down tops. Cubes for giving the hoops a rest, lol!
Too cute!!
