Forget About the Second Day…

Click photos for larger view.


I wasn’t planning on doing an evening version of this outfit, as I couldn’t fathom any other way to style this blazer. But before leaving for Sushi Thursday, I threw on the casual fingerless gloves because I knew it would be chilly when the sun went down. The gloves didn’t go with the shoes I had on, so I changed to the casual Dr. Martens Mary Janes. Then the skirt didn’t go with the Mary Janes, so out came the black jeans. Next thing you know I have a whole new outfit, my sweet husband has to wait patiently for another photo session to be completed, and I need another line of lyrics from Military Fashion Show to use as a post title.

This photo was blurry, which any good designer knows is a cue to
throw out some cool ethereal effects to try and make it look intentional!

I don’t have too much to say about this outfit, except that after the sushi we went for pie (a rare occurrence for us) and the jeans didn’t seem to fit so well after! ;-D

That blazer looked amazing with the skirt, but I think it looks even better with the pants. Isn't it funny how sometimes the best outfits aren't planned?

I love your outfit, can't get my eyes of your top .... and nails!
The blazer looks hot with skirt but wearing it with pants gives them a complete different meaning of 'hotness' its funny how it almost look like a different blazer.
I love it all!

(Fashion.MakeUp.LifeStyle), thanks!! :)

Zellain, that is a nice compliment! Thank you.

Hexotica, yar! ;-D

Sir Isaak, I prefer it buttoned, too.

Becky, I agree. Sometimes when I over-think it I lose all confidence and hate what I come up with!

StyleID, the pants really do give it a different look. Can't believe I never thought of this pairing before! :)
