back to basics


top: forever 21 (recent) // shorts: forever 21 (old) // loafers: steve madden // necklace: oia jules // watch: michael kors // sunglasses: ray-ban 

I have a blogger confession to make: I much prefer wearing heels over flats on the blog. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE LOVE LOVE flats x 10000 but I suffer from short leg syndrome (as I like to call it) and flats just accentuate them in my opinion. My little stubs just look so much better in heels. I'm also getting back to running on a regular basis, so I'm trying to make them look super great hhaha. Also, the fact that I live in a super casual small town, I rarely get to wear my heels as often as I'd like, so my little blog is one of the only places I can truly show them off. 
Anyways, when it comes to the rest of my outfit, I was very inspired by the amazing Alicia from Cheetah is the New Black and absolutely fell in love with her outfit here. I didn't want to exactly copy her look but rather give my own spin to it. That's where my beloved Steve Madden loafers and Oia Jules necklace come in. I cannot even count the amount of times I've worn these loafers and necklace. I'm still super in love with them both and I'm glad I can keep wearing them into the Fall season!

Have a great Friday everyone, and enjoy the last bits of amazing weather! 
and as always, thanks for reading! x

  1. This is such a great look, love the leopard loafers and that sweater!! Heels are just so impractical in my day to day life, I absolutely looove how they make my legs look but being on my feet all day is just too hard. Guuurl, you don't have short legs!

  5. I love this outfit! Simplicity at its finest! I love the slouchy fit of the top. And I think that's something most of us do... I definitely wear flats a LOT more than I appear to on the blog.

  7. I suffer from short leg syndrome as well, so I am with you there. Heels and boots just make my legs look better and longer than flats do....but like, to wear heels all of the time is just insanity!!
