the outback.

we have one (male) consultant who always feels the need to comment on my outfit as he walks out the door.
why?
today he said it looked like i was heading to the outback.
there's nothing wrong with just saying good-bye.
or saying nothing at all.
because i'm ok with that.

after a few recent breakouts, it was time for a mask.
drugstore finds.
(vest and top, old navy (buy)(buy); denim, abercrombie & fitch (similar)(similar);
shoes, victoria's secret (similar))

vest last worn here.

You look pretty good to go to the OUTBACK....great shoes...not good for chasing kangaroos though!

I have no idea why some people feed the need to comment on outfits, I've heard a whole bunch of different crazy things. And really the outback? In those shoes? Those shoes are waaaay too amazing for the outback. Love the colour of this top with the vest, so "safari chic" apparently

People who have nothing nice to say should really say nothing at all. What a tool! I love this look! I might have to use it for inspiration soon!

Cel said...

Yeah, 'cause nothings says "Outback" like hot pink and high heels, amirite? Haha.

I always feel like I'm spoiling myself when I use face masks, love those things. I use one from Lush called Magnaminty... it's like a refreshing minty luxury-punch to face.

Did you see in my last post that I got this vest in green too! I couldn't resist... Haha. I've already worn the green version twice since buying it on Saturday!

I love the camel paired with bright pink. I may need to give this combo a try. But first, I need a pink shirt. tee hee!

xx Love & Aloha

Ug, you should tell that guy he should try harder to dress better. Or maybe snap back with a comment like he does. Anyway, loving your outfit. Those torn jeans are great and the pink with animal print is just fab. Loving all of it!!!
