It has been quite a while since I have needed to buy some fashionable clothes. I admire from afar but since I have been spending my work time either inspecting roofs or writing construction estimates, a skirt has not been a "regular staple". However, I have lately been considering reentering the office world--the world where fashion can matter. Everything I have is from a number of seasons ago and I will need to update. The big question is with what?
This is a SS14 MiuMiu look--it is young without being silly. I guess I do need to face that I may not be as young as the clothes are targeted to anymore but that doesn't mean I need to look boring or dowdy. This blouse with this jacket and an statement necklace are perfect for someone my age to look professional. No cleavage. Color of the season. Emphasizes fashion without being objectified. I love the diamond jaquard weave and the way red pops next to it!
I love this outfit and normally I dislike poofy sleeves. I love the colors, the gentleness, the timelessness of this ensamble. I want to wear this. it is a SS14 look by Maki Oh. This line is based in Nigeria by Amaka Osakwe that has been showing and winning praise in New York. The polka dots appear to be woven into the skirt and it hits the knee perfectly. Now, if only I can figure out where to buy this!
