Wildcat Ombre’ & Neon OOTD

Readers – I’ve been so busy I haven’t been very good about getting dressed for the day. I’ve been all about the shorts and tees. (But not Nike shorts. Those are for working out only.)

I’ve been waiting to wear this skirt since I purchased it and actually tried on this shirt with the skirt in the store. One of the make SA’s gave me the same color belt, but skinny, to try with it.

Tee: J Crew
Skirt: J Crew Wildcat Ombre Pencil Skirt
Belt: Forever 21
Shoes: Miss Sixty
The shirt is the Vintage Cotton Tee and is truly NEON PINK. It doesn’t really look that way in the pics but trust me. I was glowing without a black-light. I do like the belt with it and Husband actually liked the whole outfit, which is not normal. The only part I don’t really like are the shoes. I’m still on the hunt for some black sling-back heels of some kind.
Have a great day!

    Perfect pairing, the pink with the wildcat! I have a neon pink cardigan and it does take some getting used to. I was pretty self-concious about the color until I went into the post office first thing and received a few compliments! People really do like seeing the bright colors!

    Love this skirt on you. Very pretty.

    I'm still on the fence about this skirt. I like it, but wonder if it's me. At least i know how to style it thanks to your post.

    Thank you for posting a "real life" picture. I hadn't realized that the skirt was so pink. I thought it might vere towards a purpley-pink. Does that make sense?

    I love how you've styled it!

    Kathy – Thanks! It sure it a bold color. I think with my tan it looks even brighter.

    Cleo – Thank you. Right now, I know I'd style it with tees or a cami of some kind. It's too hot here to even think of wearing a cardi.

    Belle du jour – Thanks! It does look purple-y online. Doesn't that just bug you when the color is off in the pics? That's why I like seeing IRL pics on the blogs. Then you find out the real deal.
