Tribal, Metallic, Maxi

I got home pretty late last night and woke up in a total rush this morning so this is what I ended up throwing together for church lol. My outfit has 3 different statement pieces: the loud tribal tank, the shiny maxi skirt, and the hugebangous cuff. I usually wear bright colors but today I figured neutral colors couldn't hurt, especially since the maxi skirt has a really shiny, almost metallic sheen to it. It's probably the most comfortable outfit I've ever worn to church :)



Cardigan: Savers, $6. Tribal tank: Goodwill, $4 (Still available at F21). Maxi skirt: Savers, $5. Earrings: F21, $5.80. Cuff: Goodwill, $2.90. Woven purse: Goodwill, $8. Wedges: Goodwill, $7.

The weaving on the bag is very pretty and adds an earthy tone to any outift. It's HUGE so I could fit choke books inside! Aaahh and I LOVE my wedges. The design on top is unbelievably cute and they're surprisingly really comfortable. Some people prefer to wear flats under their maxi skirts, but I like heels or wedges. I'm only 5'4 so the long flowy skirt + added height makes me look willowy and much slimmer :)

Also, my nail polish is called Sheer Cotton, from the Revlon Top Speed collection. It's similar to OPI's I Need Space, but way too watery :P To get it to that shade, I had to apply a coat of white nail polish first. For reals kine, DON'T buy that nail polish lol. OPI may be $9, but the color payoff is worth it.

Sarcasm: Richer Than Appears

My OOTD is centered around rich colors. (The pictures reeally don't do justice to the top or the purse, hence the title.) I was inspired by Shirley Beniang's OOTD entry called "Bun, Berry, Leopard." Also, I'd been wanting leopard print flats for fall BADLY ever since I saw Wendy (wendyslookbook) style them in her Fall Trends video! I went to F21 and found two different pairs, but both were around $20 so I passed on that. But THEN I went to Salvation Army and found this pair for a mere $2. . . SCORE :D



Fuschia top: Goodwill, $4. Skinny jeans: Gifted. Leather bag: Goodwill Surplus Store, $4. Leopard flats: Goodwill, $2. Pearl studs: Aldo, $2. Book: my local bookstore, $1.50.

The picture doesn't do the color justice! I love it because the color is absolutely gorgeous on my skintone, the fabric is light and sheer, and the pleats, OMAGYAAAHH the pleats! I wanted this to be the main statement of the entire outfit. Definite wardrobe staple.
