Hello! I'm Jessica from Midwest Muse and today I'm styling up Katie's incredible vintage top. I was drawn to this piece because the print reminds me of Dexter Morgan and his blood spatters. Strange? Maybe. But I really love Dexter Morgan. So that's okay. This top fits Katie like a glove, but for me it was almost a dress. I wasn't sure how to dress it up, but I really loved the way the mint and turquoise played up the orange in the top. I really wanted to show of the peplum part, but I think it's safe to say that peplum is not for a short girl with no upper body.
Katie's post is located here.
It is always so fun to see how differently the same piece can be styled. Love both of your looks.

ReplyDeleteOnce you have red tights -- you'll realize how many things it goes with!

This is one of my favorite color palettes ever! Would you believe, after I initially saw that photo of you in Katie's top, I had to find similar pieces to mix together to create the same palette....LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteThe top is a beauty on both of you gals!
