kicking off the last week of august with denim. if you’re looking for double trouble, think denim skirt paired with a denim shirt. but there’s a trick to wearing denim on denim. as a general rule of thumb make certain the rinses are different. dark denim on the bottom and a lighter denim top is the flattering way to go. and don’t be afraid to spice things up with a few fab accessories. it will elevate your outfit.
today’s ootd starts with a denim skirt from Ralph Lauren similar here that’s hung in my closet for years. it’s been seen on the blog numerous times here and here. the denim shirt is from J.Crew. it’s brand spanking new as i couldn’t resist the western details. snap shell buttons and flap pockets. the reviews suggest to size up with this shirt, but it’s meant to be a tailored fit, so i stuck to my regular size. my new leopard flats from Ann Taylor are back in action. since i’m doubling down on denim, then leopard shoes and belt will be twice as nice.

I’ve had that same skirt in the past – – wish I could find it again. It’s one of the few items I hated parting with when I lost weight and it no longer fit.
good luck with your search to find a replacement! it may take awhile but who knows? you might find something you like even more. xo
that’s wonderful, linda! sometimes a little help is all we need. so happy to hear your grandchildren are great teachers! xo
thanks so much for stopping by, mary! accessories are the icing on the cake. xo
