Today's outfit was a lot of fun to put together. I employed the strategy of taking an underutilised garment and building an outfit around it; Kasmira also discussed this approach recently. In this case it was actually 2 items, the skirt and the green top.
I bought this little lime green top expressly to go with this skirt because it came with a purple and green patterned belt. However, the top also had belt loops sewn on that placed the belt right across the ribcage, which wasn't comfortable and didn't really even look very good, and then the whole thing just smacked of being too matchy-matchy anyway. Last night I removed the belt loops and pulled out my favorite teal belt to pair with it, which I felt
Green top: La Redoute
Skirt and purple tank: Sisley (from Benetton)
Hat: Noa Noa
Shoes: John Fluevog

Oh my gosh, you have an adorable dog!!! Is she a pittie mix!? I had one in Colorado (pit mixed with german shepherd, amongst others!) who I just adored. She looks so sweet--and cute name, too!!
Alright, sorry. I just love animals.
ANYWAY, your outfit! I adore purple and green together and I love that rich shade of purple paired with the light lime green. When I wear purple and feel like adding green to it, I would always reach for a similarly bold color... Never thought to add lime! Love it. And those shoes... Amazing. Tres bien!
Georgie is pittie mixed with I-don't-know-what. She was rescued as a stray when she was about 4 months old; I got her from a foster family. She's very sweet, if a little high maintenance. There are probably those who'd say she takes after her mom. ;-)
