We Sail The Seas

June 10th, 2010 by Selise

Sometimes it all just works doesn’t it? I am happy with every single element of this outfit. Except maybe my hair, which is being weird. But hey, let’s not create problems that aren’t really there.

This outfit was borne from another divine moment of washing basket inspiration. The shirt and skirt were lying side by side. How could I not wear them together? Stripes and checks, yes please. A light scarf to keep my neck safe from chills and my new velour shoes completed the look.

I love this skirt pulled up into a paper bag waist. I’ve never worn it like this before and while I’ve always liked it I feel like it’s been somewhat reinvented into a new style here. As I’ve said before, I’m not a huge fan of high waisted skirts, I just don’t think they work for me. I may just have changed my mind with this one. I feel like a 7 year old French sailor.
