This runway photo was my inspiration for today's outfit. I wanted to find a way to capture the overall retro feel and a similar color scheme, while toning it down a bit for work. The end result felt equal parts fun and buttoned up. I think I'd like it even better with plain nude pumps (keeping with the retro style), but can't get enough of the lace up style heels for spring. I gathered some options below.

Cardigan: LOFT, $20 (similar)
Top: JCPenney c/o, $15 (similar, similar, similar)
Skirt: LOFT, $55 (similar, similar, similar)
Purse: Marc Jacobs/Saks Off 5th purse, $225 (similar)
Shoes: Nine West c/o, old (similar below)
Sunglasses: LOFT, $12
Approx. dates: Skirt and cardigan are 5 years ago. Shoes and necklace 3 years ago. Purse and top are 6 months ago.
