{For Fashion's Sake} Saturday: The Basics

4.14.2012

I love it when companies get creative with the basics.
it's a simple cream t-shirt, with a little something special in the back.

isn't there some elementary rhyme about a lady with buttons down her back?
perhaps involving elephants?
i always want to sing that when i wear this shirt, but can't quite remember it.
i'll probably be a terrible mom...
the breakdown:
t-shirt: madewell sale
charm necklace: gifts from my sisters via anthropologie
jeans: banana republic
watch: urban outfitters
bracelet: charlotte russe
moccosins: big buddha bambi moccasin  via danielle :)

As an elementary school teacher... I know all the rhymes.
Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack,
All dressed in black black black
With silver buttons buttons buttons
All down her back back back
She asked her mother mother mother
For fifteen cents cents cents
To see the elephants elephants elephants
Jump over the fence fence fence
They jumped do high high high
They tougher the sky sky sky
And they didn't come back back back
Til the fourth of July-ly-ly

Your outfit is really cute, Ashley! And is there something you've been meaning to tell us considering motherhood?! JK Anyway, I was just wondering if you have a specific place to take your photos as I've noticed the background in your photos before.

Love the shirt! And that Miss Mary Mack has been big at my house lately. I hope it gets stuck in your head. :)
