One-Dollar Wonders

Earthy Urbanite

June 26, 2013

Just a quick outfit thrown on to visit Dr. Shrink. It was a warm morning, but I felt like being covered and comfortable, so I went for boyfriend jeans and a simple linen tee. The heels and nylon bag are my nod to the urban princess portion of my style persona. Working later today, but it was nice to get a casual outfit in. :)

Madewell linen tee - Madewell
Olive belt - flea market
Old Navy boyfriend jeans - Old Navy
Fergie "Major" spat boots - Overstock.com
Zella bag - flea market
Saturno tiger charm - Florence, Italy
Silver chain - Ebay

    I love your boots and orange top!  You look good.  That's a tricky shaft height for me - I'm taking notes on how to wear it from you.

    Fab!  I love the jeans rolled up to the top of the boots!

    And that's the top you bought when you were here, right?  :)

    Love this simple casual look - and nice way to wear those boots in summer.

    This outfit is *da bomb.* Might have to go in my faves category for you.

    You do this kind of casual look so well Rae, it looks effortless! The colour of your top makes you glow and I like how you have the jeans rolled at th top of your boots. Nice necklace!

    Great look on you. I love linen and tee shirt in the same phrase.

    I need more boots! I love this look and want to copy it.

  • pil replied 10 years ago

    So glam in your shades. I was going to detail my favorite aspects of this but it's easier to say I love everything :)

    Looking good... too warm fo think about boots right now! 

  • Mona replied 10 years ago

    What a fabulous outfit! Your arms show just enough skin to counter the boots. The t-shirt is such a gorgeous colour.

  • MNsara replied 10 years ago

    You nailed it!  Both the outfit and the descriptor!  This is exactly why I go out and end up trying copycat pieces . . . ;-)

    Aren't linen tees fab in summer?  They have all the breathability, but the creases just seem to fall out.

    Very rugged urban chic!  I visualize you + me strolling Santa Monica's promenade... miss you Rae!

  • Mochi replied 10 years ago

    Another great outfit. The orange is punchy but for some reason my eyes were drawn straight to your fab footwear. Interesting, isn't it? It all harmonizes well, anyway.

    Simple, casual,elegance. You look terrific!

    Cute outfit love the t-shirt colour but I have to say - the hair, the lippy and the sunglasses - WOW!

I'm just your average working stiff who loves nice things and hates to pay for them. This blog outlines my efforts to navigate that treacherous shopping/saving divide through swappin', thriftin', and even a little resellin'. Many of the pieces in my wardrobe cost me just $1! We've heard a lot about people "living above their means" in recent years; I'm championing the concept of living large *below* your means - whatever that means for you. :)
