In The Sun

For the most part, I usually decide what I'm going to wear that day. It can take me 15 min to even an hour figuring out what I'm going to wear. But Sometimes, you'll see an outfit on someone that you want to recreate for yourself.

The outfit in question is Zooey Deschanel's for the She & Him video for "In the Sun." 


I just like the simplicity of it but still has that school girl charm. After all, the video is set in a school. 

After going through my closet, I found some items that have the same feel to hers.
Skirt and Top: Old Navy
Black Belt: Thrifted
Necklace: American Eagle
Watch: Target (didn't wear it in the video, but I needed to for work.)

I liked the way it turned out. The only thing I would change is to make the top more fitted. I had to keep adjusting it. I also didn't wear tights. I would die wearing them in the 80 degree weather. So I opted for some black opened-toe shoes that you can't see in the picture. 



Have you ever recreated an outfit that you saw on someone?
