Today I took the train way uptown for a fun interview and to talk about my personal style, and the blog. I will share more on that soon, but first let’s discuss le ensemble. So, I really wanted to incorporate my new animal-print tank—the one I wore the other day—into yesterday’s outfit. I’ve found that I’ve been living in these loose, lightweight, trapeze-y type tanks for the past couple weeks because they are so comfortable and perfect for warm summer days.
Yesterday was no different—this printed tank worked well for me with all my running about town. My layered pieces consisted of my lace crop-top and trusty ikat-printed skirt, which helped give the whole look a little extra “umph.” Plus, they helped break up the solid combination of mixed prints.
As for my accessories and shoes, you can’t go wrong with neutral-colored heels and a single statement necklace, which in my opinion helped bring the whole outfit together.
To see all the various ways I’ve remixed this skirt, tank and lace crop-top,

Wow that skirt has proved its worth. I love it, and it’s amazing how many times you have reworked it and yet still this is one of the most creative ways.

This is definitely one of my favorite outfits of yours in a while! I totally agree about the nude heels and chunky statement necklace pulling a outfit together. That necklace is awesome. That bag is also great. Can’t wait to hear more about this special interview!

Hi there! I lovelovelove your blog. Your sense of style is awesome and I get so much inspiration from your looks! Plus we have similar hair. Hehe. I ALSO just wanted to pop in to tell you that there is a Ray Ban sale on Beyond the Rack right now. I don’t know if you’re a member on there, but I know you really want some Wayfarers and they are way cheap right now! :)

I love those nude sandals! I was thinking about how much I would love to add them to my closet, but convinced that they would be way out of my price range. When I scrolled down and saw F21, it made my day! ;)

That skirt peeking out below the tank top looks amazing. I love it.
