Friends Chat Thread: Wardrobe, Fun, and Whatever

First came the skirt and then came the dilemma, what to wear it with when going dressy. I think I just managed to steer clear of looking like a 'flower child' (wasn't a themed party, but there have been quite a few lately).

It's this ring but this not my pic. It looks very space-age 1960s but it's by Jacqueline Rabun only about 10 ears ago. GJ had one left and it fit me.

Very cool!

Ok, I was a total Thursday failure- it was pouring rain, and stayed home all day, so no pic.
Today the sun is out, we are going out to lunch. Here is a team B outfit. For a university town on a Friday, this is dressy
LOL!
I am wearing flats, though.

Poised and polished.

The only reason I picked Thursdays was because I know a lot of people dress down at work Fridays and the at home at the weekend. Any day works fine.

I always loved this scarf and in this cw, I just couldn't get over the moth theme, so ridiculous, def, the one that got away.

Love the shoes but that ring is something special.

I agree with Joanna - the whole outfit is something awesome, but those shoes and ring are so special. The shoes look practical with the strap and platform.

I think one of DUT days when it's nice out, I'm going to wear my bejeweled metallic Prada sandals to work. Just to wear them. After a pedicure.

Thank you all for the likes and sweet comments on my outfit! It makes my day.

Fabulous! can't wait.

There are some high-ish Hermes shoe/sandals like the Camails design for SS, I am only hesitant because they are not a wedge or platform. So difficult without a sedan chair and willing carriers these days

New here and have a question about this romper I just purchased. I have 2 kids so I didn’t try it on in store. I’m wondering if it’s cute or a no go. Worried it needs to be a little shorter in the pant length and maybe the style is just not ok on my and my short frame. Thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
Ps sorry picture taken quick from the kids bathroom and wet hair. Haha.

I think it's kinda cute for warm summer days casual outings. Would not shorten the length as that would make it look awkward (even though that is the current trend). My main concern would be - how quickly can I get it undone for a bathroom break?

Very cute. Definitely do not shorten it.

I think you should wear very simple sandals with it. The main interesting feature is the stripe at the bottom and you don't want shoes competing with it. Actually the over all stripe pattern is what is interesting about it.

Thanks I didn’t get to try it on in the store and so I went to look it up online to see how it looked on the model and was worried because it looks shorter on her. I wasn’t sure if the length was awkward on me.

It’s adorable. I agree with the advice to wear it with simple sandals.

I like combination of the striped top and textural sweater. The necklace is a nice touch.
