“Pretty in pink, wicked in uniform.” I had a volleyball tee in high school with that across the back. A bit apt here, no?
I love mixing girly + tough. It keeps things interesting and is another way to make the pieces in your wardrobe stretch. (If you can wear a blouse five different ways as opposed to three, bonus!)
This blush pink blouse is quite spring and summer, being all pastel and halter-cut. But when layered under an olive green utility vest, it totally works for early October. I completed the look with ankle-length jeans in a classic wash with a pair of nude pumps. Boom! Perfect transitional outfit.




Happy Thursday! I’m super pumped for tonight– it’s opening night of Kansas City Fashion Week! I’m so excited to go and see the shows with my girls; pics + a post to come next week!
KC blogger friends: are you going tonight? Tweet me! I’d love to meet up. 🙂
You look awesome, darling. 🙂

I LOVE this. Although I love jealously swooning over what I cannot afford, I also love it when you feature items from places in my price range – like ON!
Cheers!
I love your vest!! Very cute and it seems super versatile.
