Yesterday my family and I attended the Bastille Festival on 60th street in Manhattan. My husband is utterly obsessed with the France soccer team and he knew they were broadcasting the game from the festival (update* France lost to Portugal). Leanne and Zareena knew there was going to be a Kids Corner with games and face painting. & I knew there was going to be food. Therefore, it was a win-win scenario for everyone.
We all had a completely different matching outfit planned for the festival but had to change right after breakfast. Now I know to feed kids when they are still in pjs.
The breakfast scene was only the beginning of my troubles yesterday. I was having so many wardrobe malfunctions, you have no idea! When I found this skirt in a vintage shop I knew it was a little big on me but it wasn't a big deal. I knew that I could take it to a tailor or pin it myself. Well... I've worn this skirt twice and both times pinned it in the back. There's just one little problem, every time I sit the pin comes off and if I don't pin it right away the skirt falls off. I promise I am not pregnant! This skirt fits me a little big and the way I pinned it makes me look bloated in the photos. Just saying. I think it's about time I learn my lesson and quit being lazy. I'm taking it to the tailor tomorrow!
We've seen so much of this off-the-shoulder trend by now, it's almost sickening. Yet, I've never seen one like this Crochet Lace off-the-shoulder top from Nasty Gal. This top is cropped and pairs well with anything. If you're a shorts kind-off girl or a skirt kind-off girl, this top makes any outfit look more elevated and interesting.
I initially wanted to wear red Pigalle pumps by Christian Louboutins but last minute changed my mind due to all the walking we had to do. These Topshop shoes were my bff's throughout the day. They are super comfy and unique. I bought them a few weeks ago while they were on sale. Unfortunately, they are sold out right now. Nonetheless, I linked a similar pair below.
