The Reasonably Prudent Law Student

So here’s a new twist on my normal Business Casual Superstar series, just to keep things from getting boring. Occasionally, I’ll be posting pictures of outfits that I abhor and then systematically unfugging them. I won’t post a ton of outfits I hate because, normally, when I hate an outfit, it’s just beyond hope. But not all bad outfits are hopeless, like this one worn by Agyness Deyn.

Let’s unfug this up a little, shall we? Oh, let’s! Oh, do, let’s!

Cotton Twill Shift Dress in Pavement ………. $19.99
Ruffle Trim Jacket in Eggplant ………. $37.90
Herringbone Tights in Black ………. $5.49
Sole Puzzle Shoes ………. $24.75

So I went with a grey shift dress that hits at the knee and has a cute little scoopneck.

Purple works very well with grey, so I picked this girly, ruffly purple cropped jacket that will sit right above the hip (most likely) and add some deep, rich color.

Then we’ve got these shoes. I don’t know, they’re chunky with the heel and they look kind of cute, so I went with it. And the tights are a must.

You might want to experiment with the hues/saturation here; maybe go with a paler grey dress, something like a heather grey, or a more vibrant purple for the jacket. Whatever you like. You know.

I’d add an armful of silver and bronze bracelets, or a chunky silver/grey cuff, something like that. Maybe a sparkly silver ring and a grey/silver headband with something interesting going on. My mother put me in lots of headbands as a kid, and luckily, I saved a few of them, so I wear them now.

I wear them ironically, of course.

Duh.

>_>

<_<

Right. I wish I was cool enough to wear headbands ironically.
