Bordeaux & Blush






Blouse: Mink Pink, Skirt: Joe Fresh, Clutch and Tights: H&M, Booties: Dolce Vita, Necklace: Urban Planet, Watch: Michael Kors, Bracelet: c/o Anna Osgood, Sunglasses: Joe Fresh

This pretty little Joe Fresh skirt hasn't gotten nearly enough wear, but after re-discovering this blouse that somehow got tucked away for the last couple months, I thought the two would pair perfectly together! The skirt and the overall color combination are ultra feminine, but the loose fitting blouse & sturdy wedges tone it down for easy weekend wear! I fell a little bit victim to the wind in these photos, though, with my stuck-to-me blouse & funny little flyaways! 

Hope you have a lovely Thursday! & thanks again to Kristin for snapping my photos for me!

  4. Oh I just saw a lace skirt at Zara and now this skirt you are wearing is making one even more. Love it.

  5. Lovely Kate! This is definitely one of my favourite looks that you've put together! I wouldn't have thought to pair a jewel tone with a pastel but it totally works... and the tomboyish blouse is so great against the lace skirt. The glamorous python print clutch just ties it all together- gorgeous!

    Hope you're having a great week!

  12. I am into this skirt - I need some lace infusion into my wardrobe, and probably lots of it. There's a Joie "fanny" lace top that is in the running, but I think I need to make room for a skirt as well - not familiar with Joe Fresh, but now I am going to check them out. Love getting new ideas on brands/stores to try out.
