I don’t think I’m the only one out there, but I tend to dress according to my mood each day. Some days I’ll wear the most casual outfit, T-shirt, jeans & sneakers complete. Other days, my inner girly-girl will crave that lady-like dress with a pair of killer heels. Even though my style is all over the place, I make sure I select pieces that I like and that I can pull off with others that I already own. This time, I wanted to style my outfit around this butterfly messenger bag from Julia Kays.
私だけじゃないかもしれませんが、その日のムードによって着る服を選んでます。たまに思いっきりカジュアルな格好をする日もあれば、他の日はレディーなワンピースにヒールを履きたいと思う日もあります。私のスタイルは幅広いかもしれませんが、既に持っているアイテムに合わせれるものを常に選んでいます。今回はのアウトフィットは、この可愛らしい蝶蝶模様のメッセンジャーバッグとコーディネートしました。
Butterflies have always been a symbol of beauty, which is a quality many of us strive for. Sometimes we tend to forget that it cannot always be seen, that true beauty lies within. And how convenient that a bag like this can serve as a reminder to not judge based on outer beauty. To go along with the pastel pink and blue colors of the butterfly, I chose this flare-sleeved top that I got from Shopbop, slightly reminiscent of the beautiful winged creature. And because I’m all about the metallics this season, these silver heels added the perfect blend of feminine spice.
蝶蝶は美のシンボルでもあり、それを求める人も多いでしょう。でも、美はいつも外見だけではないことを忘れがちだと思います。本当の美しさは目では見えない内側に存在します。衣類でそれを表すことができるのも良いですよね。このバッグを使うたびに、そのメッセージを思い出させます。蝶蝶柄のパステルピンクやブルーと合わせて、Shopbopでみつけたフレアスリーブのトップスにデニムをチョイスしました。フレアスリーブも蝶蝶っぽくて、上品なシルエット。そして、今季はメタリックにハマっているので、シルバーのレースアップヒールで大人っぽく、シックに仕上げてみました。
With that being said, have you checked out the Shobop sale yet? Get 20% off your order of under $500 or 25% off your order of over $500 on both full price and sale items with code EOTS17. My last few posts have featured pieces I recently purchased on Shopbop, and I’m still eyeing a couple other items I’ve love to add to my wardrobe. I would definitely recommend getting on board with this great deal ASAP because it ends tonight 11:59 pm PT! Happy shopping!
ちなみに、Shobopのセールはご存知ですか？コードEOTS17で＄５００以内のお買い上げで２５％オフ、＄５００以上のお買い上げで２５％オフがもらえるそうですよ！セールアイテムも対象なので、チェックしてみて！ 最近の記事で着用しているアイテムも最近Shopbopで購入したものですが、他のもこのセール中に買いたいなと思っています。セールは３０日２３：５９PTまで。Happy shopping!

I definitely dress based on my mood and the weather plays a role in that as well. I love your butterfly top with the sleeves but I cannot get over those amazing shoes!!! I don’t think I would be able to walk in them, are they comfy??

Love the. Butterfly bag. Goes perfect with the pale pink flared sleeve top from Topshop which is one of my favorite sites. Heels are a killer.

Your outfits always capture my attention. You got this style thing down! That top was the perfect choice for that bag. And when I saw your skirt jeans and heels I was sold on the entire look!! And you’re so right about judging from the inside. The soul is the only thing that will last.

I absolutely love everything about this look! The denim on denim bottoms are such a unique piece and pair well with the pink ruffled shirt. The pattern on your purse is such a nice touch, and your heels add a bold, feminine flair. As always, your photos are stunning!

We truly have the same mindset when it comes to dressing. Wearing whatever you want based on your mood but it has to work with current wardrobe pieces. That’s what I call classic, but stylish. Loved your photos in today’s post. The colour of the top suits you so well!
