Not What It Appears







( F21 top, belt, and bag; Target romper; DSW sandals )

I managed to briefly take outfit shots right before heading over to my aunt's house for a family barbeque. I've noticed that the more and more I mix up my wardrobe, the more my family members nitpick at what I'm wearing. A few nights ago, while wearing this outfit, they complimented on my lovely "dress". When I told them it was a skirt paired with a separate top, they stared at it as if trying to solve a puzzle. Then today my cousins admired my "shorts".  I told them it was a romper, which made them grab my collar and look down my shirt as if they didn't believe me (anyone else doing this would've got a smack in the face)! Someone asked, "why didn't you just wear the romper by itself?" I probably should have since the extra layer of clothing just made me die a little faster in the Texas heat. But what fun would have that been?

That's so funny that they were so confused by your outfits! I love the striped top over the romper it's perfect. Layering is fun!

That cracks me up. It happens to me a lot, too. Especially when my friends KNOW they've seen a very striking skirt that looks EXACTLY like my top... bahaha. You look great nonetheless.

I love the stripes over the romper! And it's my opinion that if you are confusing people with your outfits then you are definitely doing something RIGHT! You look great! =)
