It's hard to tell from this picture but the lipstick is actually a bright orange color that's not too different from my nails!
Green button up- Thrifted/DIY, Tank and skirt- Zara, Platforms- Jeffrey Campbell, Jewelry- Laila Rowe
Decided to break with the usual LBD on Saturday and wore this out for my birthday instead (I feel like there must be a cartoon character that wears this color combination but I can't think of who... maybe if Meg from Family Guy borrowed Lois's shirt?). This is also my interpretation of the spring color-blocking look (a la Prada and Gucci). It's easy to overdo it on the color though... almost walked out the door wearing tall stacks of beaded rainbow-colored bracelets on each arm! Thankfully, the part of me that was turning one year older looked into the mirror and said "Whaaaatt? Do you think you're going to a rave or something?"
Me: "I'm going out for sushi! I wish I was going to a rave..."
Older me: "You still don't understand what the heck dub step is, that's not your scene!"
Me: "Okayyy" [*Womp womp* Takes bracelets off]
In the end I was happy with a slightly more subdued look (Although now I know what I'd wear if tickets to Miami's Ultra Music Festival were to magically fall in my lap... pretty please?)
I'm OBSESSED with bright colors right now and this is like Jil Sander-tastic. Big fan.

Great outfit, that's so daring and made extra special because of the unexpected shoulder detail. Looks great with your colouring too :)
