On Edge (See Jane Wear)
J Crew blazer + belt, UO shorts, F21 top, Zara boots, Express tights, clutch – gift from friend |
At a first glance, this outfit may seem slightly adventurous but once you see the demure, classic blazer and hints of lady-like lace all traces of possible edge seem to disappear. I first wore this outfit when in Los Angeles last month when the temperatures were hot enough to wear shorts without tights but I wasn’t quite ready to reveal my winterized legs (but here I am again, wearing it again in Chicago where tights are most definitely needed). Sometimes when I travel and spend time in different cities, I like to dress in a bolder manner and take more chances with my clothing than I normally would; it’s sometimes fun to be out of your element and take on the characteristics of the city you’re visiting.
How was your weekend?
Love the clutch and the jacket and the look in general 🙂 Recently started following your blog and enjoy the whole feel of it 🙂

Great outfit…love the jean shorts and the clutch….:)
The purple lining of your blazer is so fresh and unexpected – love it!
I dont know what it is about shorts in the cold months with tights but I just adore this look! The blazer with the peep of purple is a great touch!

Ooh, I really love this! SO cute! The booties & the clutch are especially cute! And I kind of feel the same about moving to a new city, I feel like I should really take advantage of wearing whatever the heck I want, since nobody really knows me, I might as well just wear what I want knowing they have no preconceived notions of what's "me"! Kinda fun! Hope you had a lovely weekend, m'dear! xo.
Really like this look. And love the clutch
I love the pop of colour on the blazer! Very chic!

I agree, it's almost as if being in another country (or state) allows you to be different or more daring 🙂

I love the entire outfit! The blazer is fabulous and I love the purple interior. I agree about being more adventurous when in another city. Especially when that city has warmer weather. It seems easier to be adventurous when you're dealing with fewer layers. Hope you had a great weekend!
I LOVE the shorts and tights on you! The purple lining on that blazer is such a fun pop of color. This is a great outfit!

liking the colors here girl and the lipstick!!
I am loving your boots! They're so great and edgy.
I agree with the weather thoughts and how it affects what we wear. I add black tights to every outfit whenever I'm in SF. And then when I come back to LA, I realize I've left my tan somewhere in August, and I have to wear black tights again. You make this outfit look wonderful though!
Absolute perfection! Inspiration file for me!
