WIWWW #1

For my first week of What I Will Wear Wednesday, I went far back into my closet and pulled out this:

from Express-early 2000'sPale purple/lavender 3/4 sleeve button shirt.  This, and my favorite white knitted hoodie, is what is left of my first attempt to purchase professional wear when I was a lowly summer intern at an architecture firm in Santa Barbara.  I think it is from 2001.  Wow!  Can it be really 10 years since I bought it?  Man, I wasn't even old enough to drink legally that summer.

I really didn't plan out more of an outfit beyond picking out this shirt that day.  I paired it with my dark grey/brown pants (Express Editor 2007) and my favorite flats (Cynthia Vincent Escher).  What I WOULD have liked to wear it with is something like this:

Please excuse the clothing/items links, my first time using Polyvore.com to link in and wanted to see what it would look like.  Pretty neato site, Polyvore, lets you create outfits and decorate rooms to your hearts desire. *sigh*  Maybe my next post should be on using that site.  Well you should go check it out anyway, before I start.
