Truth be told, I sort of lived in several incarnations of this outfit while in New York. The high-waisted trousers and jean shirt just fit the bill for my mood (on most of the casual days anyway).
I'm a bit swamped at work right now, playing some major catch up, but expect a wrap up post about NYFW sometime tomorrow morning, followed by a wrap up post about the Independent Fashion Blogger Conference. If there's anything else I need to wrap up, please, tell me now because my memory has gone to crap. (I blame stuffy airplane air for that.)
As for these photos, I have to say, Suz reallly brings out the inner, um, idiot in me for our photo sessions. I guess, dear readers, you had to find out at some point, but I really am a huge nerd. Sorry if that ruins any illusions of grandeur that you had of me. That first photo is pretty accurate in capturing the "essence de Krystal."
I'm one classy broad, huh? 🙂

Aw, you look like you're having such a blast! I'm so glad this new gig with Weardrobe is going so well so far. You look great, and I love how the hat and leopard heels just kick it all up a (very awesome) notch!
I like this muchly. Thumbs up, from one major-league nerd to another. 😀
OMG I love the high waisted pants!! The look so great on you. I have been searching for a pair myself.
Great outfit, it can be dresses up and dressed down!!
Can't wait to hear about all the NYFW happenings!
The high waisted pants are screaming for one of my vintage leotards!

This is such a cute outfit, not many people could get away with it but your figure suits it perfectly. It's great that it's all from really affordable stores too but you still look really high end.
I totally thought your shoes looked familiar and then realized I have those shoes! So now I can pocket a cute little idea of high-waisted trousers with said shoes. Or cropped trousers might be nice! Anyways, you look great.
It's really rare to find a pair of high-waisted trousers that look good, but I love yours!
i like the way you match the jean shirt with the high waisted pants…looks great together

I love this outfit, I adore those pants!!
at least you are a nerd that has some major STYLE! =)
i have been majorly missing your outfit posts…come back come back!
To see the nerd in you come out in photos is just as fabulous, if not more amazing, than putting on any grandeur. 🙂 You look awesome, and those leopard print shoes are killer!

Keep the inner nerd alive. To me it just looks like you're genuinely happy, and that's always a good thing.
It makes me quite happy to learn of your inner nerd. I love it when you smile in photos!
