Standpipe

What is black, white and red all over?
An exploding zebra.
* white embellished tank-- BCBG * denim blazer-- Calvin Klein Jeans * leopard skirt-- c/o Kosher Casual * red flats-- gift from former coworker * silver cuff-- Lohemann's * turquoise flower earrings-- F21 * black knit embellished hat-- random trinket store *
What can I say? I've got a thing for loose, unstructured tops. Even when I get stared down by the old women on the corner wondering what to name my future baby (maybe I should make a card that says: "No bun in this here oven.  But thanks for checking.") The smocking detail at the top makes my heart go pitter-patter, and the pockets seal the deal. Because seriously, women's clothing has way too few pockets for this gal. Where else am I supposed to store my treasures?

That is my life. Extinguishing pregnancy rumors. I like flowy stuff too!

you should totally make that shirt!  I think lots of us who prefer billowy-er tops would put them to good use  :-)

I'm always a sucker for a beret, and you do them so well!  Perfect touches with the red flats and denim jacket as well.  You look like you're ready for anything!

I am a big fan of the blousy, billowy tops, too.  Also your denim blazer with ultracute sleeves :)

I love loose tops too, especially as the temperatures rise, but I hate the maternity vibe that goes with them.  And yes to more pockets!

 I soooo need an "I'm not pregnant" sign. I've been married long enough that I think people are starting to wonder when I'll ever have kids, so I try to steer clear of clothes that will prompt awkward questions. Kudos to you for embracing the looseness - you look great!

I love pockets too, everyone does! i don't know why clothes manufacturers haven't cottoned on to this yet. Great skirt!
