White Denim Jacket, Floral Dress and Motorcycle Ankle Boots - Inspiration Monday

FLORAL DRESS - Forever 21
WHITE DENIM JACKET - Bill Blass (thrifted)
FEATHER EARRINGS - Charlotte Russe
SUNGLASSES - Kenneth Cole
BROWN MOTO BOOTS - Lucky

Inspiration Monday - Sienna Miller

"Mommy, I'm so so so so sorry."  I always cringe when I hear Princess Sparkles say this.  I'm never sure if it's a real bad problem or just something she thinks might make me upset.  Thank goodness it's usually nothing big (like a few drops of milk on the table), but every once in a while...

Today's Inspiration Monday from Two Birds is Sienna Miller.  I would've LOVED to wear my denim vest, like Sienna, however, I just wore it Friday and thought two posts in a row wearing the exact same vest might be a little overkill.  So I went with my thrifted white denim jacket instead.  I love wearing moto boots with a girly dress, and find that it looks best on me when the dress is on the shorter side.  And I love these suede Lucky boots because I found them at Macy's on sale for $40!!!

Anyway, today is a mellow day for the girls and I.  For some reason, Mondays are our day to recover from the weekend.  We seem to always have a lot going on on our "days off."  Though being at home always seems to expose us to the possibility of one of those "so sorry" moments.  Let's just hope that if one of them occurs it's just a few drops of milk on the floor and not the whole gallon!

Oh, I think you could've worn your denim vest! It's a great way to show how you remix the pieces in your wardrobe. :) But I do love the floral dress with the white jacket, too! You look awesome!

I love how you paired the white denim jacket with this! I am also a huge fan of boots with girly dresses. You did a great job with this inspiration photo!

If spilled milk is all that happens in a day of the life as a mom, that's a pretty good day :)

Love the boots with the dress look! My husband teases me because I would wear boots everyday (no matter what the season) if it were acceptable.

I love your boots too, they go so well with your pretty floral dress!

I agree that Monday should be a designated rest day for everyone to rest up after their weekend! ;)

Wow, you really did this Inspiration Monday up right! I love your take on the look--the white denim jacket looks great. And you're right--those boots are awesome!

Tara said...

I think it looks great with the white jacket, but it probably could have looked equally great with the vest. Definitely something to keep in mind for the future :)

And I soooo need a pair of those boots!! Love them.

You could have worn the denim vest and jean jacket to show 2 different looks.

Your looking super cute and I love the hot pink floral print.

This look is just as fab...if not more fab than Sienna's! LOVE it and seriously had you reworn the denim vest, it really would not have mattered but I like the white denim. You took Sienna's outfit as an inspiration and created your own look!

I love how you pulled this together!

The denim vest would have been perfect! I like the white denim too though...anything with florals is fantastic right now, isn't it?

Rebecca said...

I think that the white jacket looks great!

Jess said...

Ooooh I love your boots and your inspiration! I'm the same way (I am super OCD about wearing the same thing too close within a time frame, hehe)

Gracey the Giant said...

I love girly dresses with tough boots and love the bold print of your dress. You look fabulous!

You are seriously the most styling mom around! I love your Inspiration Mondays because you know she paid way more than $40 for her boots and they're not as fierce as yours!

Your boots are absolutely amazing. See, these are my perfect boots. I love boots in this style. LOVE THEM. I have a pair that are sort of similar (but they go higher up to my knee), and I wear them all the time in the fall. These that you are wearing look great in the summer, too, which makes them even better.
Can you tell that I adore them?

Boot envy here. So styly on you, so not on me. Maybe its the legs. Mine are like two tree trunks--thanks, Dad. Sparkles is such a smart girl to know how to defuse a situation at such a young age!
