Fashion Friday-3 ways to wear it!

Hello and happy friday! This week for Fashion Friday I thought I try to work around a little more 'controversial' piece.  If you can call a shoe controversial.  This is one of those love or loathe kind of things.


Indigo by Clarks oxford








 These preppy little oxfords have been everywhere lately so I thought I'd use them as my base for 3 new outfits.
Here we go! 

bohemian city life



This one has a romantic soft feel. The shoes give it a little structure and I think, make it look more polished than sandals would.  This would be an easy " transition to fall " type of look - just add a little cardigan and you're good to go!  Unless you live in Texas...if that is the case you'll be fine as is haha!

preepy chic



I love this.   The ponytail with the little dress and chambray shirt make this somewhat clunky shoe look sweet and dainty.  I think this would make a great date night outfit or could even be appropriate for an afternoon wedding.


something different



This one was just fun to put together. I love the subtle mix of floral from the skirt with stripes on the clutch and the juxtaposition of the prim and proper blouse with the smokey makeup and sleek hair. I'd wear this just to feel fancy:)

So which is your favorite?  And are you on the love or loathe side? Would you ever wear oxfords? 

 These are so much fun! What should I dress up next!??

  1. I don't think I'm quite loving those shoes yet.. I have been seeing them around a lot lately though. Just haven't warmed up to them yet!

    1. I'm still on the fence myself-i'm sure 1/2 through fall a pair will make its way into my closet-although I already have a heeled version of something similar;)

  5. I STILL love these shoes but have never known quite what to wear them with. I would wear all three outfits, but I particularly like number one. Hmm, ideas, ideas!

  6. I'm more of a "loather", but REALLY like #1 and #2, #3 is more out of my "wheelhouse"....would you go sockless with that match? Great ideas though!! You make me like those little shoes a little more.... ;-)
