Under the {fashion} influence: Miranda Kerr

I was flipping through photos on people.com the other day when I came across this one of Miranda Kerr. She just looked so feminine and perfectly polished and put together that I knew I had to recreate this outfit. Mostly because
it everything that I am not!

My style typically trends toward bohemian or hipster and sometimes it can be pretty girly, but polished and put together is not how I would describe my look. I figured it was time for a change, even if it was just for one day. So I pulled everything I had from my closet that was similar to this look and there you have it! Ok, so I'm holding an umbrella instead of a super cute baby and the materials and colors aren't all perfectly aligned, but I think it captures
the overall look pretty well.

And yes, my hair is OUT of control. Crazy Alabama weather and humidity in February. What can you do?
