This is what I wore for a long, action-packed day this weekend including lunch out, letting a friend use my vehicle to move furniture, and a family birthday dinner. Pictures were taken in the backyard before dinner (I love the orange grove!), and when my photographer kept shooting after I said stop, I started goofing off and I wound up liking the candid shots even better. :-) This new top is one of the prettiest things I've ever had the privilege to wear. Crochet lace + peplum, plus my favorite kind of denim (distressed) and my favorite kind of pump (nude) = well, pretty much one of my favorite outfits ever. What are your absolute favorite styles that you come back to over and over again?

Beautiful! I'm a dark jeans girl, but this post makes me want to buy a lighter, more distressed pair! Gorgeous top...
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorites too! The jeans and nude pumps were already on my list of things to buy and I already have a crochet top, but now I want the peplum!
ReplyDeleteI'm also glad to see this post! I just got my first peplum shirt and I'm wearing it today — it's black with white polka dots and a skinny belt around the waist.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love the feminine but fun feeling of the top, and could see it with white pants to dress it up, its a lot of fun with the jeans too!
ReplyDeleteadore that top. it's so pretty with the distressed jean!

I love a good button up shirt! Right now I'm into the sheer polka-dot ones! For spring and summer I want to pair the black one w/ some really cute white skinnies with some cute flats!
ReplyDeleteI am in LOVE with that top! I think I must buy it, your blog is not helping my shopping addiction, but I love it!

I love this delicate feminine top!
ReplyDeletehow do i pin this amazing outfit?
ReplyDeleteI will add a Pin It button to the post, but in the meantime - did you know that by hitting ANY "Pin It" button on the blog, it will let you pin all the pictures from the blog? For example, my outfit post from Saturday - just click the "Pin It" button and it gives you the option to pin today's outfit.
ReplyDeletethis outfit is amazing!!! totally makes me want to DIY a lace peplum top, its too beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI agree, nude pumps, distressed denim and lace are a fool proof combination.
Love the detailing on this top! Perfect for spring/summer. xoLili

Love your distressed jeans! I always come back to classic black/white/gray and stripes. Somehow I never get bored of them.

I love your fashion! That top is amazing! I like how you matched the distressed look with the lace. I was wondering how you stay in shape. You are tiny, what is your secret?
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty top! I think the necklace gets lost in it, and that you could easily do without and still have an awesome outfit.

LOVE the top you have on... it is so so pretty but casual the way you dressed it down with the jeans :)

That top is GORGEOUS! Hope it comes back in stock! Also Love the orange grove, so pretty!
ReplyDeleteNot gonna lie-- love a white top and jeans. but way to go to dress it up a little bit! Perfect outfit
ReplyDeleteOh, J! Gorgeous, as usual! That top actually reminds me of my wedding dress, the one I shredded in the hopes of remaking into a dress one day (took off the seven layers of tulle and kept the bodice). Perhaps I can refashion it as a top? Thanks once again for inspiring me!

This top is DIVINE - I love. It might have been nice to see you in a turquoise necklace, your white one got a bit lost.

One of my favorite outfits you've done, J! Looks fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteAnd, I love getting to see you having fun - your white background is very professional and perfect for your daily posts. But, this was great! :)
Love the top, J!
ReplyDeleteLoving this top on you, so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI like how the peplum is more casual because it's not so voluminous and is a great layering piece, cute outfit!

That peplum is so flirty and girly! I love how you paired it with the distressed jeans. And your outtakes are SO fun! I like seeing that side of you.

ReplyDeleteYour crochet lace peplum top is simply *s.t.u.n.n.i.n.g.* on you!! At your shoulders/neckline; and along the bottom hemline, too, I just love how you can really see............ the *beautiful PATTERN* of the lace!! Although your ivory bib necklace doesn't "boldly stand out" against your white lace top, I sometimes think that wearing mostly monochromatic jewelry, with maybe just "a touch" of colorful jewelry----(e.g., like your pretty green link bracelet!!)----for, say, a Birthday Party then allows "The Birthday Person" to............ really *shine* instead, i.e., without being upstaged!! (Also, the rich~~and very refined~~"textural luxury" of white-on-white is really hard to top!!)
ReplyDeleteP.S.: What totally *fun* outdoor pictures!! I have to admit, though, that----(on the person's property across from your family's backyard, with all the oranges on the ground in the orange grove)----the first thing I thought of was how all those poor kids in the orphanage in Sierra Leona would probably............ just *scramble* to pick them up; and eat them!! I (honestly) think your Mission Trip in July, 2012, made me even more "attuned," J., not only to the terrible deprivation/suffering in the world; but also to the amount of food all around us----(sometimes, even literally on the ground, too, like oranges!!)----that's often simply wasted every day. In some of the (one-on-one) charitable work that I do, I sometimes think of "your kids" in the orphanage; and doing so............ genuinely *inspires* me (to continue my charitable work), you know.
You look so cute! Love that top. Love the look. Love the fresh look of the photos. It's nice to see you outside!
ReplyDeleteThe top is so feminine, forgo the necklace next time!
ReplyDeleteRachel, the top is now "backordered", but the store is taking orders now for when they come back in stock!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kara! I do yoga and run a couple times a week!
ReplyDeleteThe crochet top is gorgeous and fits you to perfection!!! Love how you mixed it with distressed denim. Such a great contrast!
ReplyDeleteBTW - love the outdoor pictures!
