I'm sort of breaking my own rule in this outfit post-- wearing a bare midriff top. But you know what? I turn 30 next month and I figure as a girl in the last few weeks of her twenties I should be allowed to break a few rules! This cropped top has been in the shop for quite a while and I have tried it on a million times with high waisted skirts but finally realized that its boxy fit pairs best with high waisted (and snug fitting) pants.
Besides this lovely top (still for sale in the shop!) I wanted to highlight my new shoes from Sole Provisions. This company has a great site full of shoes that aren't just cute, but are also comfortable. These particular sandals are by Orthaheels (yep! Can you believe it? A shoe this cute, invented by a podiatrist!). They have just enough lift, with the little wedge but are still perfect for an all-day stroll or chasing around a toddler. The quality is great--I am in love with the super luxe suede covered footbed...which feels oh-so-nice on my feet and the unique detailing (the braided top, the sliver of jute around the sole, the dainty ankle strap...) make them worthy of being the highlight of any summer outfit. I can't wait to pair them with a simple floral sundress next!
head scarf: vintage Liberty of London, bag: vintage (buy it HERE), top: vintage (buy it HERE), cropped jeans: BDG (thrifted! 5 dolla holla!), sandals: Weil by Orthaheel in serenity red c/o Sole Provisions
That little girl right there is the reason you will only find me in comfortable shoes!
I am currently doing my best to soak in these last few weeks of summer and enjoy my sandals and tank tops while I still can! August, you came way too quick.

I'm 28 (had to think for a second how old I was hehe) and in the same boat. I've never worn crop tops exposing my middiff until recently. And it's great. I figure, I'm old enough now where it's alright. Love this outfit!!
