Blazer: Zara. Lace and grey tops: LF. Faux leather mini: Silence & Noise for Urban Outfitters, Boots: LF. Bag: Balenciaga
I love cropped tops in the summer. I got these two from the LF sale. I loved the lace one so much I got it in black as well. This cream version is layered under a crop swing vest.
The faux leather skirt was an impulse by at the Urban Outfitters in New Orleans (while at their annual jazz festival). Leather minis never really go out and I’ve reached for it loads of times already.
ps. The Elvis boots are breaking in (don’t ask me why but that’s my nick name for them).

karen,
I have that skirt also. I love the way you layered all the crop tops together and the blazer really pulls everything in. Take care!
I also love that you update your blog frequently. I can always count on you!

I love those shoes! That’s it, I’m totally getting on the next flight to New York and coming for your shoes…can’t help it, I am a shoe girl (for which I get teased a lot about)…
As always, very inspiring outfit post, even though I don’t think I could get away with a lace top at work, unfortunately…

K – do you go to a shoe place to stretch out your boots? I completely forgot what you said. I want to break in my Frye’s for the fall, but I don’t want to do it on my feet. It’s already taken so much abuse.
