Skippy Says: So A Dyslexic Man Walks Into A Bra...(OOTD)

Ok, so, while it may be kind of kitschy to wear an umbrella printed dress in the rain, sometimes a girl has to give in to her inner kitsch. Amiright? And kitsch tends to be a weakness of mine. Right up there along with stupid puns. I'm sorry, but I love stupid puns. Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love and got married. The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was awesome! Eh? Eh? I wonder how many followers I'll lose with that one...








Shop:
- c/o eShakti dress (Buy here) And remember, you still have time to get $20 off your purchase at eShakti by using the promo code SAYSSKIPPY0811, valid till 31st December, 2011. Considering there is stuff on their site for as cheap as $20, I'd hurry my little tush on over :)
- Anthropologie trenchcoat (Gift from my mother-in-law circa 2010, no longer available. Buy kind of similar here or here)
- Kate Spade via DSW tights (No longer available, buy similar here or here)
- Scarf from random little shop in Turkey
- Anthropologie boots (Black Friday sale find for $65. Buy on sale here)

    Very cute! Your scarf is so lovely-- I'm bummed that it's a piece that can't be traced to its source.

    I would hardcore wear an umbrella-print dress during the rain! To be honest, I would hardcore wear an umbrella-print dress all the time. It never occurred to me that this is a thing my life needs, but now I am convinced.

    Ha, I liked your antenna joke, but I also like silly puns. What I also like? Your trenchcoat and awesome tights! That trench is so cute and ruffly and the color is so different, I wish it was still available. Textured tights are the best, I think they add a little something to every look!

    Your antennae joke has convinced me of one thing, and one thing only: you are my long lost BFF. You know what this means? BESTIE NECKLACES!!!

    Such a cute outfit! And an umbrella-printed dress on a rainy day = perfecto. :) I must confess to spending a lot of time browsing eShakti a few days ago, trying to decide what to get with the promo code -- just couldn't decide! And now I'm being lured by J. Crew's free shipping and sale items. Tough decisions!
