I should have worn heels yesterday. Wanna know why? ’Cause I won’t be for the next few days. I hurt
my toe. Wah.
This morning I woke up and realized that Kai spent the whole night working (this happens frequently). I
peeked into his office and didn’t see him and realized he must have taken a nap on the couch. As I
rounded the corner into the foyer, I smacked the inside of my fourth toe (how?) on the stone hearth on
our fireplace. Now it’s all black and blue on the inside. It’s colorful and pretty now. I did it on purpose,
okay? *sigh* Needless to say, Kai waking up to me hopping on one leg saying “ow, ow, ow, owww!” was
exactly what he was expecting this morning.
This is what I wore yesterday not including heels.

Outfit Breakdown:
Shirt: J.Crew Factory Store / Skirt: J.Crew / Belt: Gap (men’s) / Socks: Forever 21 / Boots: Gap Outlet

Curled away from the face with a large curling iron
So … expect to see me in flats the next couple of posts.

uber cute outfit for the day! hope your toe heals.
you could be an air hostess in the 60′s.
Love this outfit! Especially the boot & sock combo.
Cute! Love the skirt.
Ouch, sounds really painful, best of luck with your toe!! And, lady, this look is SO adorable. I love, love knee length socks paired with boots -perfect outfit!! xo veronika
Stubbing your toe is the worst, but it takes talent to take on the fourth toe. Pat yourself on the back girl! Also, for the outfit. I am totally digging the chambray top with the khaki skirt and those boots are great. I am into the socks and boots trend. Lovely! Hope your toe heels quickly!
oww! I hope your toe heals quickly! Everyone is doing this boots + long socks combo recently! I need to invest in some of those socks.
i feel like they are everywhere this year! happy shopping!
Your poor toe
It sounds like you hurt it pretty badly! Your outfit is adorable thoughhh!
This is one of my favorites in a while.
Probably because I totally plan to steal your idea and recreate it as soon as possible. Those boots are to diiiiieeeee…

Such a classy outfit…beautiful coordination… the iridescent shirt & earrings + dark leather belt & boots. Catching up on comments here—Really admired your last outfit post too. AND the white pumpkin on the antique scale. So many cool ideas in your house. Thanks for sharing, keep the great posts coming.
thanks, rachel!
ouch! I hope your toe feels better today. I always do stuff like that too
But on a positive note you look absolutely GORGEOUS! I’m loving the texture of that skirt and paired with that shirt, and the boots with knee highs it’s perfect! Can I wear this too please?
yes! you can borrow it anytime … but only if you’ll swap with me.
Love the boots, socks, skirt combo.

I just found your blog tonight and love it. I seriously tried on this exact shirt and skirt today at J Crew!! I bought the shirt but not the skirt and now I’m thinking I might have to go back for it.
I just love it with the belt and boots!
thanks, katie! glad you found me.
I picked this skirt up last year but they seem to carry very similar ones every year. it’s a great classic piece!
