My Attempt at #FASHION: Cobalt & PINK! so fancy.
you guys, this is my pensive look.
You guys. I have no idea what it is about this outfit, but I feel so fancy in it. I know it’s shorts, and a t-shirt, but I wore this outfit and I felt dang fancy.
Maybe it’s the COBALT blue? Well, you could argue it’s ROYAL blue. So I was like royalty! Or something. I refuse to say that this shirt is Duke blue (or dook blue as my husband would say… sorry Elise 🙂) I like to think it’s CNU blue! GO CAPTAINS! Anywho, I like wearing this color.
Also, if it’s not the shirt, it could be these shorts. I got them on super sale at the JCrew outlet a couple weeks ago. I got these puppies for $12 on sale and marked down from almost $60! WIN!
Or, if it’s not the shorts, it could be the cobalt wedges that I snagged from the 70% off clearance rack at Target. That is the BEST PLACE TO FIND SHOES. Oh man. These hot COBALT / CNU blue wedges were a whopping $6.58 at my Target… down from $30! YESSSSS.
OR, if it’s not the wedges, or the shorts, or the t-shirt, It could be the PINK. Pink is my fave color. DUH. And I love neon pink.
Needless to say, I FEEL FANCY, YO.
Please excuse my sorry excuse for hair in this post… the North Carolina humidity is brutal on her sometimes and it was especially true on the particular day I wore this fancy thing I called an outfit.
also, i’m not going to apologize for it, but i am going to let you know that yes, i am aware i am pale. this is not a new development, but instead of getting burnt to a crisp every summer, i choose to protect my fair skin with like 19081028 SPF and rock the “fair, delicate matron” look. or something.
standard.

thanks, jen!! neon pink is just so much fun! 🙂
I love this!! I totally have outfits I feel fancy in, and I can’t pinpoint why, but I get what you mean! I love cobalt, period – it was one of my wedding colors (or, as you say, royal blue…is there any difference, anyway?! I say no.). The pink really looks fabulous against the blue!!
thanks, jamie! i think it should be a rule that every woman should have a “I FEEL AWESOME AND FANCY” outfit!! amiright?
Look at you rockin all your great deals! I love the cobalt and hot pink together. I wear SPF 50 but I still burn (sometimes) and get tan.

thanks, sharon!!! yeah – i mean i wear super high spf but i still burn (UGH) worst!! i have always wished i could tan 🙂 hehe
You are so adorable! I love this outfit and I love that necklace, I have the same one (but I think you knew that already). I love all these colors! I always feel fancy when wearing heels, regardless of what I’m wearing on top. I could be wearing sweatpants, but if I have heels on… fancy pants! 🙂

Molly you are so cute! I love the high shorts with the belt. I did that one day at work and I felt particularly fancy 🙂

The pink+blue (even if it’s dook blue) combo is super cute! And sweet deal on the shorts.
