(Forever 21 blouse, bag, leaf ring / UO skirt / Vintage belt / Jeffrey Campbell wedges)
I finally christened my Mariels after wearing them all day at work yesterday. Welcome to the family, my babies :) Though they're very comfortable, I can only give them a 9/10 because they slip off my feet from time to time and I have to step aside to fix the slingbacks. They remind me why I dislike slingback shoes :( But anyways... I towered over most guys at work yesterday, which made me feel like an Amazonian woman with a pair of fabulous shoes :p
Another shoes story: I went to a shoe repair yesterday to re-sole my flats. I placed my order in the morning and he told me to pick them up at 5:30. I came back at 6 and he totally forgot to do my shoes. GREAT. So I told him I would pick them up the next morning around 10. I came at 11-ish and he mocked me because I didn't come at 10. WOW, THE NERVES! I will never go back. The soles look great, though.

You look so ladylike and lovely in lace :) Wow so many "L's" hahaha. Love your JC's!
I dislike sling backs too, but these look so great on. The lace top with that skirt is lovely too.

I have the same problem with slingbacks. it's so disappointing...but sometimes it's worth it!
Loving this outfit so much!
Out of curiosity, how tall are you? Because when I wear heels I am pretty much the tallest person in the room - and I too experience that "Amazon woman" sensation, lol
But seriously, love everything in this outfit. Accessories are blowing my mind, and lace tops make my heart flutter.
I want, want that bag :)
lovely top, skirt and bag!
:) You always look so nice, Kristy!
love.

gorgeous top, looks very cute on you
yeah my slingbacks tend to slide too! But, I LOVE your shoes and the lace top is Gorgeous:) Geeesh what a rude guy but, good thing it was worth it in the end!
I found the sandals at Browns on Queen St in my size - the last pair! Yay! But I think you were right, they were cheaper online. Oh well, pretty comfy, eh?
You look fab!

that top is so pretttyy! i really need to go to a Forever 21 very very very soon! : ) which one do you always go to? I think you always find the nicest things from there! : )
I know what you mean about slingbacks! But you can never go wrong with JC wedges. I've seen a few bloggers rock that F21 bag lately. I am wanting it more and more.
Love the lace top and how you paired it with the striped skirt. Elegant as always.
Why we haven't got F21 here?!!?!?! Whyyyy?! I'd surely get this blouse then! :o)

Stunning look!
LOVE that bag.
You look PERFECT. I love the lacy top and the shoes :D I feel like an Amazonian woman when I wear heels at work too. Maybe everyone I work with are short, iuno.
Yay it's the bag again! :)
What a funny guy at the shoe-repair, I believe I would have lost my nerves and shouted at him :D
Anyway, the lace shirt looks lovely with the maritime stripey skirt! I love this look!
Love the shoes, the bag, the lace...Everything !

i love this outfit so much!!! awesome find at chic swap!!!
This is too, too pretty! Really WOWed me Kristy. Love the brown belt with the black shoes! Must try that soon. :D
Ahhh I remember seeing that lace top at F21 and not buying it; totally regret it now :( But will vicariously wear it through you! Great outfit lady, pretty nautical chic haha. I love the belt and of course your satchel and shoes! Don't you just love wearing heels and towering over boys? That shoe guy sounds like a jack ass hahaha, but as long as he does a good job, I'd just ignore his remarks.
I still cannot get over the fact that this bag is from Forever 21. I am just in love!

Don't forget to enter my giveaway, ends today!
Whoa, who knows lace and stripes can be best friends? You really pulled off this look. Those slingbacks are pretty, too..

Wearing sporty striped skirt with lace and making it even chicer is a wonderful idea! And Oh, the slingback shoes, my slingbacks have velcro on them and it opens all the time!!! Ah shoe repairs are always a pain!!! good luck with finding a new repairman!! :D And I can't wait to see how you've styled the Zara skirt :) I've worn mine today but it wasn't any creative!!!
lace and stripes = love!!! i wanted that skirt from uo! ah this outfit is perfect kristy!!!
Such a cute outfit, so glad I found your blog!
Check out my blog- www.piecesofzoe.com
Cool outfit! Love the shirt so much!
I'm from Toronto too. let me know if you ever need a buddy for lookbook photography or anything.
That lace top is lovely! I tried to come up with a better word for it but "lovely" just suits it best!
I want your shirt!!! what a pretty AND appropriate work outfit. I always struggle with what to wear to work!
I bought those wedges too, still waiting for them. are they as comfy as they are awesome?
Wohoo, lady, you are def going through an interesting phase. Love all the romantic details in your outfits!!!
I love the full skirt with the opposing texture of the lace.
This is a very Mae outfit, in that, I would TOTALLY wear it. Minus the fabu bag. I totally want that bag.
You look amazing.
I, too, HATE slingbacks. I always love the look of them, but hate them terribly because they either pinch my feet, push them too far forward and leave squeeze marks and pain, or slip off. I've never had a good pair that I loved.

Mae Lu, thereafterish.
Also, that shoe cobbler is a fucking mark-ass buster. Tell him he's trifling and that his customer service sucked so much you're not coming back. That'll make him think twice.
I would totally tell him that. It may make him retort at you in a rude way, but it'll make him think to have better service and not make fun of customers.
You should've told him that you didn't show up on time because you weren't even sure he'd have remembered to complete them.

Beautiful bag and shoes!

I like your back shots. I can never look good in a picture that is of my large buttocks and short legs. =(

i'm surprised that bag is from f21, their bags usually look cheap (but not this one).
