Non-Stop Weekend

This was yesterday evening’s outfit for drinks at the Driskill, scrabble, awkward downtown explorations and finally, Stephen’s party.

SHIRT: Vintage Krishna (from Brazil - inherited from my grandma)
SKIRT: Strut
BELT: Buffalo Exchange (thrifted)
SANDALS: Andarella (Brazil)

Nothing in my closet looked appealing to me yesterday. Nothing. I think I tried on about four entire outfits complete with shoes and accessories before realizing I didn’t feel comfortable or sexy or anything in that look. So finally I decided to just wear that Strut skirt again since I’d worn it earlier in the week and it was fresh on my mind.
Anyway, I wanted to pair the very short, very tight skirt with something fresher and more demure to contrast the two and offset them.
I hadn’t ever worn the Krishna shirt before which is really a shame given how gorgeous it is, but it caught my eye as I rifled through my closet and when I tried it on with the skirt, I just loved how they looked together. I like that the skirt is so tight, dark and skimpy whilst the shirt is light, airy, looser and more innocent. It also has the most incredible lace and woven detail.
I wasn’t entirely sure about the sandals, but I was running out of time and they made more sense than some of the other things I tried on. I think they may be somewhat out of place with the rest of the outfit, but overall I think it works.
