Downtown Chic

Photobucket
(Reformed dress worn as a top, Zara balloon shorts, Jeffrey Campbell architectural wedges, Banana Republic tote, gifted Marc by Marc Jacobs sunnies)

I wore this dress as a fitted top to compliment the volume in the balloon shorts. The loose fitting shorts allowed me to bunch and conceal the dress underneath without compromising the shape.

Remember this Christmas Wish List? I guess he got the message ;)

Today was my last day of school before Mardi Gras break. Whew! Finally get to take a short breather from studio and celebrate the carnival season! Much needed.

Wishing everyone a fantastic weekend!

I love teh idea of this dress being worn as a top and not just because it compliements the shorts so nicely, but because I really like the piece of skin the "top" is still showing! And of course, of all people, you should definately own a pair of architectural wedges ;-)
