With New York Fashion Week happening right now, it seems that every big blogger and her sister are sharing their experiences and videotaping the runway shows for all to view on Instagram Stories. While this is all very fun (and I’d love to be at NYFW if I could), I’ve never understood how most fashion shows and the high-end fashion world involve so many un-wearable pieces. Most of the stuff you see in shows is just not practical. That’s what is confusing about fashion—anyone should be able to attain it since we all get dressed in the morning, yet the high-end fashion industry is anything but made for the average person. Anyway, with that in mind, I’ve rounded up a list of the most impractical styles in fashion (in no particular order), just for giggles. 😉 I hope you enjoy!

Halfway through the week already! I can’t believe how fast the summer is flying by.

I’ve never paired this black camisole with this skirt before, but I really like how it turned out. I think the illusion that the white stripe on the skirt makes with the black tank is really cool. I wore this for a day out in which I ran some errands, volunteered, and explored a craft fair. It actually was a really windy day, so I regretted wearing a skirt! I felt a lot like Marilyn Monroe and had to keep holding my skirt down.

I got this skirt at Nordstrom Rack, which is one of my favorite places to shop. I’m not one of those people who loves to have designer items. For one, they’re too expensive for me. More importantly, the label of the clothes doesn’t really matter to me, just as long as they’re cute. 🙂  With that said, I really like shopping at Nordstrom Rack because I always find something cute and super affordable. Usually I head right to the back of the store where they have racks based on size and just a bunch of random clothes. I think it’s so fun shopping in this section because lots of times, if you find an item you like, you’ll only be able to find it in one or two sizes. I feel like the racks are kind of like grab bags and you never know what you’re going to find. If I do find something I love, I always feel like I’ve found a hidden treasure.

Can you tell that I’m sipping from a tea pot planter in the last picture? I even have my pinky up. 😉
