Ivy League Friday's Fancies





I already graduated from college with my degree in psychology and I'm not going back to school anytime soon, but I had so much fun putting together this "back to school" look anyway! Our prompt for this week's Friday's Fancies made me think of fall and pretty leaves and that led to me thinking of Gilmore Girls and its gorgeous New England vistas, and then of course I thought of Rory Gilmore going to Yale! That is how my Ivy League outfit was born. I think it's what a current Rory might wear! The bold ring, leopard flats and leather skirt balance out the feminine tie-front blouse and over-knee socks. We all know that students are slaves to time so that is why I've included the clock in the background as well as the sweet rose gold watch. Last but not least, a roomy satchel is the perfect accessory to lug around your stack of books and school supplies! If you like Gilmore Girls and this Rory-inspired outfit, click on the image below and like my look! I appreciate it!

  5. LOVe this outfit and it is most certainly something I could see Rory wear...and even one of the Gossip Girls, although I have never watched an episode of that show! The bow-front blouse is pretty...I am still on the fence as to how it looks on me!
