School Teacher Faux Sweetness

When I bought this grey blouse from Target, I was excited b/c it was the first tie-neck blouse I had ever tried on that looked good on me. But this morning, I spent 20 minutes trying to get it where I did not look matronly. I managed to avoid matronly in the end, but I think I look very "sweet and innocent." Ha!

What I Wore That Looked Sweet & Innocent:

2009-12-15 combo

  • maroon skirt (Lane Bryant)
  • grey striped short-sleeve blouse (Target)
  • blue cashmere sweater (Old Navy)
  • grey open weave tights (Target, I think) *
  • grey patent heels (Steve Madden)
  • rhinestone brooch (Salvation Army) **
  • grey earrings (no clue, they are really old)
  • grey headband (again, I have no idea, maybe Ross)

* these tights died by the end of the day. I am so saddened by that. They were awesome.

** all the jewelry is $0.79 at the Goodwill I frequent, but at this Salvation Army they have a boutique section and this brooch was $10. Yikes! But totally worth it. Isn't it glam and vintage looking?
