Lilac Wine

 






 
Top- Forever 21
Skirt- Thrifted
Shoes- Steve Madden
Accessories- Betsey Johnson
Wallet- Urban Outfitters

I've pretty much accepted the fact that after 28 years I don't really pull off "sexy".  And I'm perfectly happy with that!  I choose to dress conservatively because I feel comfortable and I feel like it gives the correct impression.  Who wants to have all the goods out anyway?  I love wearing a high waist skirt and textured top, which in my eyes, is sexy without feeling insecure.

If you don't know already, every Betsey Johnson store is officially closed.  I'm sad that I will no longer be able to add to my collection of amazing dresses and accessories.  I guess the bright side would be that my stuff in a few years will actually be vintage :).  I don't think I'll have another designer obsession quite like Betsey, she really embodied my style!

  4. You look so good in pink! I saw this top in Chicago and almost bought it. Now I really wish I did. It's so weird that Betsey went out of business. She's definitely eclectic and I'm sure in due time she'll be at it again.
