Red & White – Summer Outfit

April 30, 2015 by suzanne carillo

Wouldn’t this be a perfect summer outfit for a day strolling the streets of Nice?

 

Red and White

 

Top (80% off!)     Skirt     Sandals     Handbag     Hat

 

 

I quite like that the striped tee has sleeves and an usual boat neck collar.  The scalloped hem on the skirt is such a great detail.

Wearing White Jeans For The First Time In Decades

April 29, 2015 by suzanne carillo

I haven’t owned a pair of white jeans for decades.

I remember a pair I had in grade eight. I’m sure I had some after that but those are the ones I remember best.

Man…grade eight!  We used to make crank calls to people before there was call display or *69. (Yes I am that old.) One of us would choose a number from the phone book (remember those?) and then the other one would nervously phone and ask, “Is your refrigerator running?”

Then when they’d say yes we’d laugh and scream…”Well go and catch it!” and quickly hang up the phone and laugh and laugh.

That was when I was hanging out with the bad seeds from the neighbourhood LOL.

Can you imagine? No cell phones, no internet.

Life was as pure as my white jeans here.

Nice Segway back to the jeans Suzanne!

I’d talked myself out of white jeans for years thinking they were too see-through and made the lower half of my body look larger.

For some weird reason this year I’m suddenly okay with them. Also…these ones are not see-through. So that is helpful and solved half of the problem.

My white jean phobia was miraculously cured.

This was the first pair I tried on when I decided to buy some this year. I love it when I only choose one item to take into the change room and it works perfectly. Saves me so much time. I’m a shopping savant. Now if only I could turn that into cold hard cash somehow.

Did you do any silly pranks as a kid?

Are you a fan of white jeans/pants?

 

Want to see how I painted those shoes? Or another menswear inspired look?
