Pink Strapless Dress with Floral Blouse Underneath

This is an oooold dress - another one of those items I found at TJ Maxx when I didn't really need a dress, but bought it anyway. I've worn it several ways - including to a wedding - but I hadn't worn it in a while. I decided to give it new life by adding this blouse underneath. I got a lot of compliments/questions about where I got this "dress", every one shocked to hear that it was two pieces! 

Navy and Red Stripe Rugby Shirt with Wedge Loafers

I was still feeling like I was a little lost wearing real clothes again on the second day of school. I pulled out this navy Kenneth Cole skirt, stared at it for a while, and then thought it could be cute with this old Gap rugby-ish polo. As with most shirts, it looked better tucked in than out. Then, to spice it up I put on a pair of white pointy pumps, but because they were leftovers from when SUPER pointy shoes were cool 10 years ago, they looked a little ridiculous. Running out of time, I tossed on these (kind of boring) Via Spiga loafers and pearl studs to play along with the preppy vibe. But you know I just had to throw little spikes and a whimsical bracelet in the mix to keep it interesting.
