Fearless Fashion Friday

I paired black skinny jeans with a fun, printed tunic.  I needed a break from heels so I chose my absolute favorite Tory Burch flats.

Why this works: The black jeans are office appropriate and the silk top adds a little more fun to the outfit.  This look can easily go from day to night by pairing it with sleek heels and a leather jacket.

Tunic: Banana Republic, $79
Jeans: Paige (Nordstrom Rack), $89
Flats: Tory Burch, $235

Note: This tunic was originally really long and super wide.  I loved the idea of it, but it looked awful on.  I took it to my favorite tailor and had them shorten the hem and take in the sides.  Voila, my own custom top!

  1. I have that same top in the blue/white prints! I actually bought 2 of them...lol I need to get them tailored too because I haven't worn them at all since they are WAY too loose.

    Have you ever tried wearing the top with a skinny belt? What do you think? I can't figure out how to pull that off.

  2. You do?! I loved both prints too. I would definitely get them tailored because you'll wear them with everything.
    I really like the look of a skinny belt, but it didn't work for me on this top. I think it's mostly because of the way the top drapes on me. I do think it would look really pretty with a pencil skirt, the top not tucked in, and a skinny belt around it...now that would work!
