I felt all retro in my polka-dot button up and homemade skirt today. Like, in a I Love Lucy kind of way. Just give me an apron, a shrill voice, and I’ll go bake you some cookies (or set the house on fire, as it were in my case).
I’m actually especially proud of how frugal this outfit turned out to be. I found this shirt from the clothing swap last Friday night while I was in Austin for the Texas Style Council conference. The skirt I made a few years ago from some fabric on sale at Walmart and an easy Simplicity pencil skirt pattern. And the belt? Well, that came in a pack of three and only cost a little more than $2 per belt. My shoes, purse, and watch unfortunately aren’t so cheap, but considering I wear those items all the time, the cost per wear is actually not too bad. So, if I do say so myself, I feel like the good house-fiance today in dressing both chic and cheap! 🙂

P.S. In case you missed it:
- Color Brigade Vol 10 – 38 lovely looks so far! Do you have a favorite?
Great outfit – love the shirt and can't believe that the skirt is homemade!
Haha, I was wondering what you meant by house-fiance. Now I see. =) That skirt is furthering my inspiration from SewPetiteGal to start sewing!! You look so 70s modern which is so in right now. I love that this outfit looks so expensive but costs so little. You look great, Kileen!
oh thank you!! i went through a whole sewing phase. i barely touch my
sewing machine these days! maybe after the wedding craziness is over… 🙂
I really like the top on you. Don't you wish more people swapped? I didn't even know you sewed. I need to get back into it. I'm not amazing at it, but I want to learn.

kileen you have the most amazing flawless skin.. what foundation do you use?
I absolutely adore this outfit!!! Although, for some reason I find myself wanting chocolate cupcakes with strawberry frosting and sprinkles on top. My mind just made your outfit into food.
I totally get the cute-modern-wifey-to-be vibe from the outfit! The splash of gold is a nice way to contrast between the blouse and the skirt. You made that skirt? Get out of town! It fits you very nicely, I was wondering which brand you bought it from!
What a cute look, and a great skirt! hand made skirts are so simple and can be so stylish!
I use Missha BB cream in #23 plus Stila Illuminating Powder foundation in 30 Watts to set. Lately I've also been trying out Origins Vitazing and topping that with the Stila powder.

I didn't know you sew!! That is so cool!!

You made that skirt? I'm so impressed; it's gorgeous! I love brown and gold together, and they look perfect with fun colors of the polka dots. Great outfit!

Staking is the process by which the skins are softened and stretched, and a "nappy" surface is added to the pelt. There's no reason that you should have to sacrifice style just to stay warm – Ugg provides styles that will keep your toes warm and cozy and will still make you look great!

The initial popular of down jacket in European was began in the 1950s in France. At that time, Duvetica adopted the down lether from Perigord as its down in lining. In order to express respect to the ancestral home, the brand used the word-duvet as the fore part of its brand name. Duvet means down quilt in French. While the back part of the brand name is "etica", which is from Italian. Its literal translation is ethical and moral. The reason why adopt the combination of the two words as the name of the brand is to show respect to people and environment as well as express responsibility to customers.
