Good Intentions










Blouse: c/o Modest Mob, Pants: H&M, Purse: Aldo, Necklace: H&M, Bracelet: Joe Fresh, Watch: Michael Kors, Shoes: Aldo

Let me start by saying I think this blouse deserves better than black skinnies. My intention was to pair it with a fabulous cobalt blue skirt and a cute little yellow satchel that were (are) both on their way to me in the mail. Neither has arrived yet and I didn't want to leave this pretty polka dotted blouse hanging in my closet any longer! The blouse was actually hand picked for me by the lovely Diana, owner of Modest Mob! Diana, who is also an editor at Beso.com, recently opened this little boutique and it is adorable! You can bet I'll be styling it up again as soon as those other items arrive, but until then I'll let the blouse stand alone with basic black and some new gold bling!
