I have a collection of happy shirts: panda shirts, horse shirts, my "Greatest Dad on Earth" shirt, my vintage Frankie Say Relax shirt. My new shirt from Steppie has been added to that collection of can't-help-but-smile-when-I-wear-them shirts. It's a flying panda!I did come to a stunning realization that I don't own a single unicorn shirt. What the heck is that about? I used to have one from The Velvet Teen, but it is nowhere to be found. I might be okay with that if I could get my hands on these unicorn shoes (click on that link. seriously.) from ModCloth, but unfortunately I still have lots of kitty bills to take care of. One day!
These ankle boots weren't my first choice for such a casual outfit but I'm embarrassed to say that almost all of my flats are in the back of Bobby's car. I always bring a change of shoes and then throw the unworn pair in the back seat. That's probably why I can never find my shoes!
My hair only looks this red in direct sunlight. Otherwise, it looks just like my natural color.Outfit Details:
Vintage Fedora: from my mom
Vintage double breasted blazer: thrifted
Flying Panda Tee: Steppie
Cutoff shorts: cut from Bobby's hand me down jeans
Ankle boots: from my mom
Makeup:
Eyes: bare canvas paint, deep truth eyeshadow, white pigment, vanilla pigment, blacktrack fluidline (all MAC)
Lips: Clinique Bamboo Pink (just a coincidence but suitable for the panda theme)

That has got to be the cutest "casual outfit" I've seen in a while. I'm definitely going to have to try sporting something like this tomorrow... maybe with knee-length shorts though. I don't think management will be too happy if I show up in the office with anything above the knee. :P
ReplyDeleteP.S: How's Kitty Boos doing? Haven't seen an update about him in a while, but I always assume no news is good news.
Katrina: Kitty Boos is doing really well! He just had his first day out of bed rest...he is free to roam the house with the other kitties right now! He's very happy. Thanks for asking!

This is such an unusual outfit for you... I love it so much! The blazer is fantastic, the fedora looks great with your hair, and don't worry about those boots because they're fantastic. Also, the unicorn heels are BEAUTIFUL.
ReplyDeleteLoL! I had this same stroke of brilliance... I wore pandas today because they always make me feel happy! :) (I also sported a brown fedora as well!)
ReplyDeleteGood choice!
You are the cutest ever. Your style rocks my world.
ReplyDeleteI definitely clicked the link to those "unicorn heels", and it pretty much made my life. I need them in my life right now!
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit! The blazer is adorable, and I think the shoes go really well with the rest.
ReplyDeleteBtw, did you get your hair colored at a salon, or did you do it yourself? The color definitely suits you well :)
love the outfit, but I love the hair too! I'm actually getting a haircut next week, and I wanted that same hair! lol
ReplyDeleteI actually really like the ankle boots with this outfit; it gives it a sort of rock-and-roll feel that we don't see on you very often. :)
