Closet Confection: The Pink Ladies

2011_0116_outfit1

When: Sunday, January 16th, 2011

Where: Outside to snap pics, then back inside!

What: Jacket (H&M), blouse (H&M), jeans (TJ Maxx), shoes (Guess via Filene’s Basement), sunglasses (Marc Jacobs via Nordstrom’s Rack)

This is a perfect example of Do As I Say, Not As I Blog. In this case, I’m referring to wearing high heels in the snow.  Bad idea.

I was cleaning out my closet this weekend, and somehow it morphed into a game of dress up.   As I was trying things on and deciding to what to keep and what to chuck, I put together this little outfit.  I thought it was so gosh darn cute that I grabbed my camera and tripod and ran outside to snap a few pics.

And in case you were wondering…

No. I did not get frostbite.  And yes. My neighbors do think I’m nuts.

      Thanks! Although I have to confess, I’ve never actually seen Grease in its entirety, lol!

      I was actually fine until some snow got in my shoe. Luckily, I had my Uggs sitting off to the side waiting for me. 🙂

    I saw that jacket at my local H&M store the other day! Actually I was so tempted to buy it but then I didn’t know how to style it…You did a great job here! I love the contrast of the jacket and the blouse.

      I’ll tell you a secret: I kinda stole the idea from one of the mannequins in the store, lol.

    OMG, the fact that you have on heels with no tights *I believe* IN SNOW…girl, you get a golden star…and if I could give you something better I would. Cute ‘fit too!

      Thanks! I haven’t gotten a gold star since grade school. 😀

  • Alex Elizabeth January 20, 2011 at 2:31 am

    Awesome reference! That is such a cool jacket and I love the blouse!

    I think I’ve finally resigned myself to retiring my stilettos until the snow is gone… but it does pain me a little bit.

    lol, you are a brave soul for this! great look though and love the pics, so i guess it was worth it 😉

  • Renee January 20, 2011 at 4:32 am

    I love the outfit and the fit of the jeans! Btw, have you ever done a video or post about your hair? I have natural hair and would like to do this style. It seems really cute yet simple/professional. Thanks!

  • ClosetConfections January 20, 2011 at 2:05 pm

    Thanks! I have not done any hair vids yet, but it’s something I’m contemplating. I’ve been transitioning for a little over a year and still have 2-4 inches of relaxed ends left throughout my head. This particular style is pretty simple. I just parted my hair down the middle, threw in a french braid on each side and tucked the ends under with a bobby pin.

    Seriously, you are too cute for words in this post…like, I don’t know what else to say! Love this unexpected and sophisticated look!

  • preppywithatwist January 20, 2011 at 3:29 pm

    It’s too bad I never got a letter jacket in high school, or else I’d totally recreate this chic outfit! In case you were wondering, I lettered in theater. Not kidding.
