What I Wore Sunday #16
I’ve never felt like I could pull off the belt-over-Cardi look.
I tried it for the zillion time Sunday morning and forced myself not to think about how stupid it felt.
Made it to a neighboring parish for noon Mass because of our ineptitude to escape Bumpy Bridge before 11am.
This Sunday we experienced Mass en Español.
Ol’ Frenchy here chose the wrong language to study.
Belt-over-Cardi did me good. It added a hint of glittery autumn-ness to a summer maxi. Go visit FL&P for other modest Church attire inspiration.
[Edited] Ugh, guys, I’m so sorry! I forgot to post the deets:
Maxi: Ann Taylor LOFT Outlet
Cardi: JCrew Outlet
Sparkly Belt: Tarjayyy
Shoes: TBurch
Also, if I haven’t mentioned it yet, please welcome my dear friend Rubilly to the momma/Cath/blogging scene. We went to high school together and have a common interests in art, musical theatre, bodacious hairstyling, and fashion– though she’s way cuter and fashion-y than I am. Before she and her sugary family moved out of state, I used to spot her in Mass and take mental notes of her style, and then go home and copy. …because I am completely focused during Mass… to top it all, her hubz is a fashion designer at Lands End, and so do I even need to say that their children are going to knock your face off with all the cuteness? Anyway, I love her and I know you will too! Go welcome Momma Roo!
Come back and see me tomorrow- I’ve scheduled a heartfelt post which I’ve been thinking about for months:
3 Things No One Told Me About Breastfeeding.
Yup, come on by and share your story, and learn about your baby’s Breastfeeding personality!
I love your outfit. Great idea with the belt over the sweater.
You can totally pull off this look, I dig it.
Also, please note that Rubilly also has experience putting sweaters on my cat. That’s some serious stylist talent.
How have I never seen your blog before???? LOVE! And you totally pulled off the belt over the cardi by the way. Thanks for your honesty about how scared you have been to try it because I have put a belt over a cardi countless times and taken it off, thinking that I look rather silly and must just not be stylish enough to pull off that particular trend. The glimmer of hope has returned!
GAHHHHH. you da you da best. and stop doubting your inner fashionista. you are modelesque so everything you wear looks beauteous on you, especially the carolyn-wardrobe-staple-pink-pants! ;)
