When I saw this street-style photo, I was blown away by the outfit on the right. How gorgeous does she look in her chambray shirt and yellow skirt? What a perfect combo, especially for the transition from summer to fall. While I don't know this lovely lady, I did some sleuthing...Here's how to get the look:
Chambray shirt: EmersonMade, $128.
Yellow skirt: ASOS, $60.
Black bag: Michael Kors, $98.
Snake-skin heels: Charles David, $285, or Steve Madden, $99.
Necklace: Octavia Bloom, $76.
Cuff bracelet: Bario-Neal, $90.
Thoughts? Would you wear this? xo
P.S. More summer uniforms.

Totally beautiful! I've been eyeing up Chambray shirts for months.
ReplyDeleteyes, they are like the new striped shirt :)
ReplyDeleteLove it. I have got to get a Chambray shirt. At first it felt a little trendy and 1990-ish. But, the softened version I am thinking is a go for fall!
ReplyDeleteLove that!
ReplyDeleteI have been posting some of my summer to Fall transition ideas over on my blog. Might have to make an addition! Good work sleuthing!

Ooo it looks also like mustard is going to be THE color for fall. How on earth do they manage to walk in those heels though?? I'd be flat on my face in under 5 seconds.

That's Shala Monroque! And I agree, that's kind of my dream fall outfit. Here she is on All the Pretty Birds: http://alltheprettybirds.blogspot.com/2011/07/shala-monroque-chic-denim.html
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with yellow items (bags, shirts, skirts)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeletelove it!! i bet emersonmade's goldie skirt would work just perfectly too! no such thing as too much EM, right? :)
ReplyDeleteit's shala monroque! i just found this pic the other day too! she's got great style!
ReplyDeleteThe colors are great for the transition in seasons. I especially love the yellow!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely and colorful photo!
ReplyDeletevery inspiring photo. i've been wearing my yellow EmersonMade skirt with a chambray shirt this summer ... now i just need those heels!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know the actual name of the back nag she is carrying? It is pefect!
ReplyDeleteLove the combo, can't wait to try it out! I recently got a yellow skirt similar to that from Forever 21 for $14.00 just in case anyone wants to check it out.

It's Shala Monroque, editor-at-large of Pop Magazine and my #1 girl crush.
ReplyDeletei'm wearing that asos yellow skirt today! i've had it for about a month and it's turned into my favorite piece of clothing - as a plus, it's insanely flattering and really soft / comfortable.
ReplyDeleteLove the contrast and mustard is my favorite color for fall!! I must try out this outfit :)
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteThe yellow skirt/chambray shirt combo is being worn by stylist Shala Monroque!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to point out some more options for the shirt and skirt:

ReplyDeleteLove all of these outfits. You are so right though, that outfit on the right is perfect for the transition into fall! I just love the color of the skirt.
ReplyDeleteDenim always has me thinking of fall! I love denim paired with yellow- how pretty. Counting down the days until fall is here!
ReplyDeleteI do wish more stylists would dream up alternatives for transition wear. This is stunning
ReplyDeletei have yet to find the perfect chambray shirt...

Love it! Also, I love the idea of transitioning into fall. I'm going to look in my closet tonight and figure out some summer to fall transitions of my own. I always feel like I get anxious about fall too early so this will help me hold out.
ReplyDelete♥Shia
I couldn't agree with you more. I love chambray with EVERYTHING! And the mustard color of that skirt is my go-to color for fall. I love the one you found on ASOS.
ReplyDeleteGreat Image! artalarue.com
ReplyDeleteAw how lovely:) Thanks for the research, this is amazing!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous outfit! I love the color mustard.

If you are looking for an inexpensive chambray shirt I found one at Target for $23. It's distressed, somewhat fitted and an overall great deal if you don't have a lot of money to spend.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see it's coming back-love Jo that you called it the new stripes! Although, I'm not ready to hang up my stripes yet!
holy moly. I'm.in.love. shoot. there goes the little bit of chump change I had stashed back. lovin the skirt.
ReplyDeleteThese ladies look great! I want to know everything about them - where they're going, who they are, can I be their friend? Haha.
ReplyDeleteShala Monroque, there's a story on her at NYMag new this week
ReplyDeletehttp://nymag.com/fashion/11/fall/shala-monroque/
These are gorgous! I will have to take the inspiration and run with it!
ReplyDeletehttp://sarahmarielmacom.blogspot.com
Yea, that is pretty fabulous. I LOVEEEE the skirt from EmersonMade!
ReplyDelete-Linh
Love all the colorful outfits. Definitely agree the chambray shirt, and yellow skirt is a great transition for fall.
ReplyDeletei love my jcrew chambray shirt and have been looking for ideas on what to pair it with, this is perfect!!!
ReplyDeleteGood eye :)
Beautiful picture!! I like colours! :))
ReplyDeleteI love the snakeskin shoes too! The perfect way to add some print/interest!
ReplyDeleteMINDOFMR.BLOGSPOT.COM
All those HEELS!!!:)
ReplyDeleteChambray shirts are one of those items that to me, never go out of style. It just gets reinvented! (The height of those heels are making me dizzy!)
ReplyDeleteI think I have all the ingredients to recreate this look - thank you for providing the inspiration!!
ReplyDeletevery pretty! the snakeskin shoes are killer- i'm a sucker for a sexy heeled shoe.
ReplyDeleteso colorful!
ReplyDeletehttp://ladulcivida.blogspot.com/
Yes! love the contrast of the feminine and the masculine. Emersonmade also has an adorable yellow skirt you may have noticed (I like the red one, too)...
ReplyDeleteSo chic, love that look! I would love to wear that outfit.
ReplyDeletethat's so interesting because when i saw the photo that's the outfit my eyes glued to and i examined every piece she was wearing too.
ReplyDeletethanks for the break down :)
she does look absolutely fab!

How gorgeous! I love all the colours. The ensemble with the chambray shirt and yellow skirt is stunning
ReplyDeleteI want so badly to be able to wear skirts like that, however I also want so badly not to look like I am ALL hips, so I can't. :(( GOOD JOB finding all the pieces though!!
ReplyDeleteClassyCleverChic
Love that ensemble! Such a fan of the chambray shirt.
ReplyDeleteYes! I woudl wear that! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteUm, heck yes I would wear this, in fact, I made a polyvore set based on this exact outfit a couple weeks ago...http://www.polyvore.com/leopard_chambray_yellow_happy/set?id=34416354
ReplyDeleteexcept I swapped snake skin heels for leopard which I think would work equally well. Anyway, love this look!!
LOVE THAT OUTFIT!!! Thanks Jo!
ReplyDeleteoohh, I am not alone. I saw this photo a few weeks ago and fell in love with the same outfit, so I bought the emmerson shirt, and found a similar skirt from an Australian fashion lable (Cue) who just released a delicious mustard coloured skirt, of course for me this will be a Spring/Summer look with Sydney hopefully about to warm up a bit. So glad others feel the same =).
ReplyDeleteI love this photo for the colours, and would love to look like one of these gorgeous women. Always love your posts Jo, especially about your yummy son and being a mum. Making being a mum very cool.
Beautiful! Love all the colours. We are still in a freezing cold winter here in New Zealand!! Cannot wait until Summer! xx
ReplyDeleteIt's Shala Monroque.
ReplyDeletewould absolutely wear this! thanks for the inspiration, joanna! xx
ReplyDeleteThere is just something fabulous about yellow clothes. Maybe because people don't wear yellow much. Except for the sailor on the fish sticks box. What year was it that Renee Zellweger wore the yellow strapless Jean Desses gown to the Oscars? She stole the show that year! Thanks for the great post!
ReplyDeletei just ordered a retro denim shirt from Gap. I love this look and especially the chambray shirt.
ReplyDeleteCount Me in. Love it.
ReplyDeletedamn you joanna goddard for posting such cute outfits and making me buy them :) I actually got a Levis chambray shirt which looks fab along with the asos skirt.
ReplyDeleteI would have to take a deep breath to wear that...I would do it!!
ReplyDeleteYes, would definitely wear this outfit!
ReplyDeleteI would totally wear that! She looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit though...
That isn't what I noticed first.
Look how colorful that picture is! SO MUCH COLOR! I love it so much! Bright beautiful world :D

Pearls could be the earliest identified jewel, and for ages have been considered by far the most precious Pearl Jewelry Set. So incredibly valued are Freshwater Pearl Necklace, that the Roman commanding officer Vitellius allegedly paid for a total army campaign by using just one of his mother's Freshwater Pearl Earring. Pearls seem to have been worn as a personal decoration for generations. Freshwater Pearl Ring signify chastity, chasteness and ethics. They have for many years been considered ideally suited wedding day presents because Freshwater Pearl Beads represent chastity and chasteness. Customarily it's a near requirement for brides. In the western world, akoya pearls are the preferred gift for lovers remembering their third and thirtieth wedding anniversaries. Fashion and fabulous turquoise necklace are ideal for counter display and gift giving. Whether it is a tiara for the bride or accessories for the bridesmaids, jewelry beads will look amazing. supplies beads
ReplyDeleteLove all of their outfits! I'd totally wear it all!
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful! I especially like the mustard skirt.
ReplyDeleteLooks great on these girls, but give me my flip flops and T's!
ReplyDeleteYes, I would totally wear this! Funny, before I even read what your written my eyes went straight to her outfit. I have a skirt in that same color–inspiration everywhere!
ReplyDeletei personally love the red and purple dress!
ReplyDeletehttp://xoxo-carolinalove.blogspot.com
that yellow skirt is awesome! i would totally wear that. :) x
ReplyDeleteThe yellow skirt really livens the outfit. I'd totally wear something similar, but not if it would cost me over $700! I don't think I'd ever buy a shirt that costs more than $50, not even if I made $100,000 a year.
ReplyDeleteYES to yellow!! I'm all into yellow right now and can not wait for the next pay-day!! whooopwhoop!! :-) ♥ Mandy (and the name of my blog is: MENNEPEN)
ReplyDeleteAll of those outfits are gorgeous! But yes, the yellow skirt does take the biscuit. Want one! x
ReplyDeleteOh yes I would ! I'm in love with this beautiful, lovely yellow...
ReplyDeleteReally a wonderful post. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteVery nice picture, love the colours
ReplyDeleteGreetings,

love love love this . . . of all the outfits you picked the best. Who would have thought that chambray and yellow and snake skin would go together? I think there is also something about the way that this lady is walking and holds herself which stands out.
ReplyDeleteHere's a link to a full shot of the outfit if you're interested - I love it. Although I think the shirt's actually denim, rather than chambray, but either would look great.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I actually bought that yellow skirt from asos a while ago - feeling very proud of myself now for being ahead of the fashion game!
I love this picture and love that outfit, the colours are so fab. I'd have to wear flats with it though!
ReplyDeleteSally
i LOVE this image. i posted it awhile back and still can't get enough of it.
ReplyDeletei pinned something on pinterest very similar i saw on asos just a couple of days ago!
ReplyDeletewould i wear it?! i'm wearing almost the same thing now!

Yes! I love this picture, such beautiful colors. Miss Munroque is very stylish! Thanks for sharing this pic.
ReplyDeleteWould TOTALLY wear it. Yum. I love long pleated skirts. Just bought a beautiful black polyester one from Club Monaco. Now I'm inspired to mix it with my chambray... too bad it's not yellow!

I love the chambray shirt! What a great shirt that seems like it can be paired with almost everything!
ReplyDeleteoh that is delicious. I've found my perfect chambray shirt, but I may need to buy that Asos skirt. What color tights would you wear for cooler weather? I'm thinking charcoal?
ReplyDeleteGreat color combo she has put together! Chambray has always rocked in my book!!
ReplyDeleteHow the heck do you ladies walk around the city in those high heels? I just bought a pair of 4 inch pumps, they keep slipping off my feet and I feel like I am going to break my ankle. My legs do look to die for in them, but can only wear them when walking short distances.
ReplyDeletethis is just so fun and pretty to look at! and dream about their shoes! THE SHOES!

i'm always curious - how do you walk the streets of nyc in heels? maybe i'm just lacking grace.
ReplyDeleteLove the sunny skirt. Reminds me of mid-fall afternoons when the sun is flickering through the leaves. Would you wear tights with this on chillier days?
