WIW 2/11: Denim shirt and orange slice bag

Here's what I wore for MOTG today to take the kids to ballet and the park.
Angie's recommended Banana Republic denim shirt
Gap T shirt with beige, blue and cream stripes. I love the pattern but it's rayon/poly and starting to pill even though I've only had it for 6 months--boo! I need my T shirts to hold up with machine washing and drying, is that too much to expect?
Anthro AG ivory skinny cords
Kate Spade orange slice straw bag
I wanted to wear it with my Ugg Hazel wedge sandals (#1), but DD said "Mom, you always wear high heels and it makes a loud clop-clop-clop sound." So I switched to yellow Converse (#2) since she asked me not to wear high heels today. LOL!

    Yay for Team Wear! The wedges work well, but I actually really like the vibe of the Connies with this outfit! And the way the stripe in the shirt, and the yellow of the shoes, don't match, but do tone in with and reflect the colour of the bag.Cool laidback style and great MOTG look!

    Love this look - especially with the yellow Converse - you go mommy!

    There's one very fab mom!

    Love the shoes, and I like how the non-matched colours of this outfit highlight the whimsy of this bag even more than the sundress if your earlier post :-D

    Very cute! I love the dark wash of your denim shirt and the yellow converse shoes :)

    Tell your dd --- "Don't you think it's better to hear me coming? They don't call these "sneakers" for nothing!"

    This is such a fun combination! The Converse look great with the bag and I also like them next to the jeans - that pale yellow looks very fresh next to ivory.

    Luv it with the Cons! The color of the Cons makes a nice citrus theme with the bag.

    Giggling at your daughter's comment!

    Wonderful casual outfit. Sarah Jessica Parker said her little son hated to see her in heels because it meant she wouldn't get down on the floor and play with him.

    What causes pilling? (rhetorical question--don't answer). I hope 100% cotton tees will avoid this (?)

    Anyway, lovely outfit!
