I'm wearing the top untucked for a more casual look but I think I like it equally both ways. I ordered these shoes last week from Endless and am thus far quite pleased. Supple leather, endless straps and buckles, and a relatively friendly wedge heel. I was going to hold off on them until I couldn't stand not owning them any longer, but Zappos started running out of sizes and I caved. No will power against the Balenciaga-alike shoes...

Top, thrifted Gap. Lame skirt, American Apparel. Bangle, vintage. Bag, Charlotte Russe. Sandals, Nine West.

great shoes! question: what size do you wear in the men's deep v aa shirt? trying to figure out if i need xs or s to have it fit loosely.

Ali said...

ooh! obsessed with le lame skirt - ive been thinking of ordering one for oh so long. & shoes are delish as well.

I really liked it tucked in! I think it looks very put-together. And those sandals are awesome. I've been looking for a good pair, so these are inspirational.

another great outfit! rumi, how tall are you exactly?

Rumi said...

Thanks! The style name is called Heech if anyone wants to look them up! I would definitely recommend Endless, they even sent me some Valentine's raspberry chocolates all pretty with a bow, I was quite impressed.

LadyE, let me know if you post an outfit wearing them, I would love to see!

JG, I'm 5'7"!

To the American Apparel question, mine is an XS I think but if you want it to fit more loosely I'd get a S, that's what I wish I had done anway.

Great outfit. Prefer the top tucked in, but looks good either way.

Oh Lady E said...

I'm waiting for it to stop thunder storming where I am so I can wear them out! But I will definitely post my outfit on my blog once I do!

LOVE IT! The bag works really well too! Sucks that New Zealand can't get any of those cool clothes...

I love those shoes. I was actually just looking at them in people style watch and debating on ordering them . Nine west.com has them still in both colors. and with a few google search you can get free shipping and $10. Thanks for the inspiration. I love forward to your posts everyday:).

Stabby said...

Adore those sandals, I've been lusting after the Balenciagas for months and they're the next best thing!
Such a shame that Endless doesn't do international shipping....just have to keep searching ebay.

I was going to buy the very same lamé skirt and still liked to know if you recommend it?

Rumi said...

Hey Kitten! I was just commenting on Picky Pics :)

I recommend it, but it is reeeeeeeeally short, I wish it was longer so I could wear it more high waisted.
