spring chevron

Really, what is more Spring inspired than a pastel chevron print and lace up espadrille? Nothing, I tell you! Naturally, this look was entirely Spring appropriate and to my pleasant surprise, when I went up to the roof to shoot the look, there was even a glamorous little breeze up there to complement my loose “Victoria’s Secret” waves 😉 I love having sheer tops like this one on hand (in fact my closet is pretty much full of them) especially for pairing with cutoffs because personally, bopping around town in short shorts and a skimpy tank top can go one of two ways. Ironically, with that much skin showing I either come off as childish (my freckles and vertically challenged stature don’t help) or a street walker a little more risqué than I often aim for. Seeing as neither persona is really in line with my current status as a reasonably stylish twenty something, I typically choose to focus on one area if I’m going to don something a little revealing, and keep the rest of my look on the conservative side. These tops are light enough to wear in warm temps, but still cover you up when you need it! Plus this one in particular is so happy, I figure I can’t help but look a teensy bit wholesome in it. Right? I just did a shoot with J and his new, oh-so-professional camera (more on that later) that I’m very excited to share soon! I have to admit though, my pride stings just a little seeing my photos pale in comparison whenever his photography graces my blog, let alone with new gear! Not to talk the photos up too much, but they came out so great even my pride is off in the corner somewhere enjoying a glass of chardonnay, not hurting in the slightest. 😉
