Black and Blue and Oh So Easy!

Hey everyone! This is such an easy outfit, it’s hard to write a post about it except to say I love it! The shirt has the seam below the bust, usually a look I don’t like because it’s so similar to a maternity top. But, because the fabric is heavier and straighter below that seam it hangs without billowing out. It’s just enough structure to be interesting and not be a bag.

The skirt is again that ponte knit pencil skirt that I have in 4 colors that I wear the heck out of and have worn here and here. The only thing I would do different is have a longer necklace that hung down rather than the one I’m wearing. I chose it because it’s got the same blue in it as the skirt but in looking at the pictures I think it’s too crowded up around my neckline.

Sorry for the short post, but if you follow me on Instagram you can see I’m on a quick vacation with my mom to Michigan’s wine country. More details on that later! Linking up with these lovely ladies at Shopping My Closet and The Pleated Poppy and Cid Style File.

  1. The skirt is perfect on you — the right shape and length. It’s funny, but I truly would not recognize this skirt as being the same as the other two posts you link to. I guess that’s called versatility, LOL!

  2. I always had trouble with tops as a teen, glad things have improved for us busty gals! I love the shoes, btw!
    Thanks for joining this weeks #UntamedStyle Linkup! Hope to see you next Friday too!
