I layered this batternburg lace shell over a dark brown tank to mimic the pattern of the skirt. I really like the affect. But, the lace shell has a few sequins on it, so it look a little lumpy and bumpy under my cardigan. So even though I liked the outfit, I don't think I will repeat it.
What I Wore While Sucking Up Glass:
- brown/cream patterned skirt (Target)
- brown tank (Ann Taylor)
- lace shell (via Goodwill)
- mustard cardi (Target, new via Goodwill)
- brown belt (??)
- brown boots (Cloudwalkers via Avenue)
- leaf brooches (via Goodwill)
- fly stick pin (vintage via antique shop)

the outfit is super-cute - YAY!
im sorry that your boobies looked bumpy - BOO!
but your cluster of leaf + bug pins gives the outfit the final YAY for the *WIN!*
Pretty dress!
I didn't even realize it wasn't a dress until you said that!
Also - who throws away a stranger's earring? What the heck?
Looks like a dress - even after I read that it was a skirt and a shirt over another shirt I still had to look really hard to see the two. I like this yellow on you!
I thought it was a dress too! I love the lace and yellow together.
Maybe a heavier cardigan wouldn't show the bumps as much?
I was tricked as well! This really, really reminds my of that fab dress that Drew Barrymore wore - http://poshposh.com/image/2009/10/Drew%20Barrymore%20at%20Whip%20It%20premiere%20in%20Toronto.jpg
EvaNadine - "bumpy boobs" ha! Perfect description!
miss_e - thanks! It's actually a skrt and shirt combo, but I was trying to make it look like a dress, so it's good to know that it worked.
Kelly - I think the earring was vacuumed up when he was cleaning out the glass in my floorboard from the broken window. Sadly, I think the only thing that was removed was the earring, not the glass. Total bummer too, b/c I've tried to wear those earings about 4 times already since then. Darn.
Sarah - thanks!
Brooke (or is it Coco?) - Good suggestion! It would have to be a pretty thick cardigan, so I wouldn't be able to try it out until next winter, I think.
Miss Amy - Now if only I was as hot as Drew Barrymore, then we would be in business!
Oh, so genius to pair that lace tank with that skirt! Try another outfit with the two elements.
