All Ruffled Up!


It seems as though, every time I do an outfit post, I have some reason why I don't think the pictures turned out that great!  That's probably terrible!  In this case, I think I look way too tired, and not too attractive because of it!  Oh dear, we are our own worsts critics, are we not?




Although I like this ruffled top paired better tucked into a skirt, I thought I would give it a try with my denim leggings.  I think it looks pretty good, but I still prefer this shirt tucked it.  I think doing so gives this loose top a more flattering silhouette. 


I feared that with the top being so loose, I might appear to be pregnant!  My husband kept trying to assure me, this was indeed absurd!  


I just love the ruffled neckline of this top, it's what drew me to it in the first place!  It's also a silky material, so very soft to the touch!

Ruffled Top: (from Gordmon's not sure of the brand, I must check it out!)
Denim Leggings: LC Lauren Conrad's Collection
Brown heels: Apt. 9

Do any of you have a fear of looking pregnant or chubby while wearing some loose fitting tops?

I do like to wear loose top,s and I don't think all of them give this appearance, but this one gets me just a wee bit self conscious!

I hope your week is off to a good start!!

Oh my gosh, you so DO NOT look pregnant! I know what you mean though, because I've felt like that once or twice before (lol).

I think the top is so cute!

You look so pretty! The top doesn't make you look pregnant at all, but I feel the same way when I wear loose tops.
The ruffled neckline does look amazing.

It's a really cute top, darling! And no, you don't look pregnant in it! In fact, you look way adorable, I think your hair looks super cute here too:)

Super cute! I love this outfit! I am a sucker for ruffles :)

I always buy my shirts too big. I never want them to be to tight so I go baggy and then it looks like I am pregnant. I try to make sure that I am not giving the "with child impression" though!

Thanks for visiting my blog :)

Do not be silly, you look so pretty in these pics! And I love this outfit. Perfect for a date night out or a quiet night in. It's funny that you write about not liking your pictures because I was just having this conversation with my husband about how I always think my outfits are so much cuter in person than when I see them in pictures. So true, we're our own worst critics. :)
