Inspiration: Old Sailors & The Cal Game

Dressing like I was heading to the Saturday Cal Berkeley game was not intentional. Though I wasn't at the game this was however the outfit of choice for learning how to skateboard in an empty parking lot. Full coverage of the body decreases the high probability of scraping the hell out of my elbows, knees, tummy, bum and other epidermis covered parts.

Though most of this outfit remains store bought (until the day I learn to cobbler my own boots) the hefty ornamentation on my neck is purely homemade from vintage chandelier crystals, glass beads and some satin ribbon.

Something Old, Something New

When I got this dress years ago, I loved it. But I haven't worn it in the last couple years because I felt it was too revealing. It was too short, and I was always pulling up the strapless top. The style was just a bit too youthful for a old lawyer lady like me. ;)

So I ripped out the seams and started over with the fabric, and created this more modest and more flattering skirt! Can't wait to get more use out of this old and yet new piece!

I haven't quite figured out how to pair it yet (this is a bit too matchy matchy for me). I tried it with a very casual orange top and a brown belt and I liked the more bohemian look it gave it, but I wasn't sure about the brown belt orange top combo...Anyway, I think I could probably pair it with any kind of neutral as long as the belt I choose doesn't clash. We'll see!
