Laid-Back Black

A few weeks back I had one of those mornings where I really wished I would have spent the extra 10 minutes the night before to pick out I was going to wear to work. You know, the type of morning where you look at your clock and realize you should already be out the door, but your still in a towel and your once clean bedroom now looks like a natural disaster just hit. 

In the middle of The Great Outfit Crisis of Summer 2014, the planets aligned when I spotted this top in my closet that I had previously only reserved for an all-black look. Paired with my trusted distressed denim and a feminine pair of heels, I thought it made for the perfect laid-back black look. 

Now you ask, did I learn my lesson? Of course not. I'm crossing my fingers that if a disaster strikes again today, I have similar luck.

  1. LOL! We've all been there and it isn't fun. But, the good news is that it ended in a style success story. Love this look....perfect. Those lace up sandals are gorgeous.

    Hope you had a lovely weekend.
