This outfit felt very comfortable, bright, and fun to me, but still a little dressy (as L-- described it, "medium"). My lifestyle doesn't make this type of outfit appropriate very often, but I will definitely find a few occasions to wear it this spring and summer.
The t-shirt is just a little thinner than I'd like, and I probably should have ironed it, but I would totally be willing to wear it out like this. The fit of the t is just right - loose/blousy enough, but still close to the body.
(Skirt: A gift from a Sri Lankan or Indian relative - I can't quite remember - which I've kept in a drawer in the hopes that I'd figure out a way to wear it, T-shirt: Old Navy, Belt: The fabulous hand-me-down collection - same belt I wore on day 4 with the pencil dress, but with the end hanging instead of tucked for a more casual feel, Shoes: Bandolino from DSW (Bandolino tends to fit well for my slim feet - the brand tends to have a nice slimmer-than-average but not full-out narrow-width fit - and because the fit is unusual the shoes often end up on sale or at DSW))
I'll have to try bandolino shoes. Right now any heel i buy is pretty much 9 west because their shoes are for slimmer feet. I could use another show brand! I do have some from other brands, but they are not consistent in sizes from style to style.
