| Our "Inspiration Outfit"! |
The inspiration for today's outfit is this picture. I love this outfit because you take classic wardrobe staples and put them together in an unexpected way. The shirt is a menswear piece, but you pair it with a full skirt that is the epitome of femininity. This look is so classy and elegant in an effortless way.Another part that I love about it is that it can work for any situation- school, date, casual, dressy, and even sister missionary.
So let's break it down!

The Top
It starts with the shirt. The one in the picture is an oxford button up shirt, with a white club collar. I found this one that is similar and I actually think is cuter! Also- best news ever, it is on a mega sale at Macy's today. Find it here for $33.99 today only!
The Bottom
The next step is the Skirt. The "inspiration picture" has a high-waisted cream skirt, but I decided to update the look. Why not pair your tops with a light, breezy tulle skirt? I love the wide waistband on this beauty from Shabby Apple. It is wide enough that is will define your waist and show off your figure even though you are wearing a full skirt. Also a tip for those petite ladies out there- wear skirts that are high waisted. They make you look taller and leaner! This is something to take advantage of especially if you need a skirt that is sister missionary length. You can get this tulle skirt from Here for $78.99. However I get that might be a bit pricey, so you can make this skirt for a fraction of the cost with this tutorial here. Last but not least, top this outfit off with some accessories!

Look 1: Classy
Opening up your shirt's first two buttons provides a perfect frame for your necklace. Once you slide on a string of pearls, they can flirtatiously peek out whenever you move.
