I have a not-so-secret desire to be edgy, rock-and-roll. So much so, in fact, that a fews years ago I dressed up as "Edgy Kate" for Halloween, and an alter ego was born. I have just been waiting for the weather to warm up a little to shoot this outfit, and I am so glad that it finally did, at least for a minute! On weekends I wear these jeans with casual striped t-shirts and draped sweaters, but I really think this is how they were meant to be worn. They just BEG for glamorous extras, like gold jewelry and these strappy heels. Wayfarers and a messy up-do complete the look.

But the irony here and with Edgy Kate in general? This blouse is by Talbots.
