World Cup




The 2010 FIFA World Cup must have been on my brain when I rooted around my closet piecing this look together. In fact, when I was in high school I wanted to play for the girl's soccer team, however my AP classes wouldn't permit the required time for it. I wanted nothing more than to parade around campus with my soccer playing boyfriend in knee socks and cleats. I had a lot of energy and really desired to run it off on the field each afternoon with my friends.


La Dama T Dress. American Apparel shorts. Noir rings. Vintage turquoise cuff. La Dama studded ballet flats.


FIFA. Who are you cheering for? GOOOAAAAAL!



The cobwebby detail on the back of this t-shirt dress from La Dama was far too good to hide. I opted to wear it backwards to really showcase the design well. When I wear grey I enjoy mixing in shiny accessories to play off of it. Thus glittering rings, a 200 hundred year old vintage turquoise cuff and studded ballet flats converged.



Ps. Thank you so much for the Feature on my Collage work, Cat. :)

Lily said...

Personally my darling, I don't see any resemblance of football in this look. Your far too beautiful!

I simply adore the acid wash shorts. I love how you have combined them with the knee high socks, it gives the outfit a softer more feminine look.

Red lipstick looks amazing on you. You must wear it more!

Love
