So I was giggling to myself today while at the fabric store (buying buttons, nothing special) because two ladies were blathering shamelessly in Spanish about how hideous my skirt was... funny thing is they didn't think I could understand them, I'm assuming because they think I don't speak spanish.
Oh and for those of you who asked, the nail color I wear pretty much always is O.P.I's "Most Honorable Red".
Wearing a knife-pleated men's dress shirt from H&M, H&M high-waisted gray skirt, Michael Kors duck boots, and vintage Chanel handbag

hideous??? not even! you look super cute. and i read your earlier post on these boots and i actually like them. they would be cute with textured tights or socks. maybe... :)
amazingggg skirt! did you buy it from h&m recently?
WHAT!!! I'm actually shocked that's from H&M. The shape is beautiful.
Obviously those spanish ladies don't know what they're talking about! I love the skirt.. And I love it when people speak languages they think you don't know in front of them.. It makes me worry when I talk about other people in Chinese though!
you do look super cute. i secretly hoped you put those biatches in their place.
this looks like my hs uniform!!! and filipino ppl always talk shit in front of me cuz they dont know i am part filipino but i understand everything!!! :P
Those shoes are similar to the ones I've seen taylor tomasi (teen vogue) wear. They look fab on you. Yay.
umm, yeah really ugly.
*rolls eyes
oh please, it's adorable i would giggle shamelessly at them, & make eye contact all the time if that happened to me... (:
but i love that skirt. pockets & all.
HA!
i happen to think that skirt is ALL KINDS of fabulous. it looks great on you karla!
hmmmm I would love to have seen what THEY were wearing,,,,because you look stunning..
That skirt is adorable, I love how it puffs out. so cute.
LOVE the Chanel clutch
Nice outfit! I love the skirt. (:
ohhh and same with me....haha...on the bus....old ladies thinking I cant understand portuguses/spanish....its hilarious,..and even better when you remark back in the language ;)
boooo! ignore those haters!
that skirt is adorable!
Honey, try getting your nails done by the Vietnamese girls gossiping about everyone and anyone in the salon... and understanding them.
The things they say!
You look great though! Trade links?
They've clearly been left behind in the fashion world. The skirt was the first thing I noticed, it's just stunning! :)
Love the simplicity of the black, white and grey
i've been following your blog for uiet a bit and
i love it
as well as your skirt by the way ;)
You should have said ay que pena porque a mi me encanta mi falda. Lol. I love it.
Haha, that is so funny! The boots are kinda growing on me too.
omg, im loving the outfit.
esp the skirt!!
i guess im going to run to H&M tmrw!
work those shoes!
let em' hate, your outfit is awesome.
I love it. Love how you found another use for your boots and I really like the shirt.
oh my the boots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ah.
i ordered these babies ages ago and they have still not arrived.
they look amazzzing.
i can't wait.
i thought i was crazy when i ordered them.
x.
Oh gosh, that's just too funny. I've had the same thing happen to me many times - I always try to respond in Spanish, give them a little surprise. ;D
(oh, um, first-time commenter, long-time reader, love the show, etc, etc.)
That skirt is amazing, you should have told the ladies they looked pretty in spanish, that would have been funny.
A similar thing happened to my friend in her buildings elevator, these french guys who just moved in were saying mean things about her and she speaks french, I was surprised she didn't say anything because she is usually really feisty. I think they ended up being friends later.
i love the skirt! and your legs look incredibly muscular/strong in the first picture. not in a bad way at all! i admire a woman with strong legs.
this probably sounds weird, but oh well. i'm a water polo player so i get it. :)
MK is on fire this year!
i am loving all of his boots!
and you look fabulous as always
The outfit and you, stunning!!!
Those boots, ewwwwwww. So ugly!
What was Michael Kors thinking?
Ahah old Spanish ladies are funny. Oh man, I would have told them off. God where are my manners. Good for you for just shrugging it off!
Stay fabuuuuuloooooous. =)
well those spanish ladies OBVIOUSLY don't know what they're talking about
i think your outfit is great. i even like the duck boots...i can see how they can get some getting used to, but its so unique! just lovely
Why is your every outfit spectacular? Oh, if only the craggy, pee-ridden streets of DC didn't keep me from wearing heels all the time... Keep up the good work, lady!
whats with all the back pictures?
love the skirt!
The first image completely blew me away when I first saw it. Stunning, especially the way your beautiful beautiful skirt is spinning out.
Gorgeous outfit, i love the white shirt. Silly ladies didn't know what they were dealing with!
How is your sewing going? You must must show pictures soon! x
That's funny about the skirt. I regret not buying that skirt when I had the chance to!
you're kidding me right? you look amazing~ you must have had a good laugh over those ladies
that skirt is precious!
what a rood women!
i really like those shoes! and skirt not hideous at all!
i love your skirt! :)
seriously? i was dying over your outfit and then seeing that women were insulting your skirt. im shocked! i love it!
you are sooo ridiculously gorrgeous..you have no idea...gosh..no freaking fair.
Pues debo decirte en español que es una falda preciosa, ¡y que tu luces espectacular!
omg!!..i'm a fan!!..and la la la loove your sense of style!!..you go girl!..btw,..what kind of template do you use?..thanks:)
iloveyou karla!!waah!:)
Skirt looks super cute.
If I were you, I would have spoken back to them in Spanish something silly and sarcastic like-
"why thankyou very much for valued opinion ladies".
Imagine the shock on their faces!heehee
xx laura (pug and pips)
LOVE the chanel bag!!
http://the-shades-of-black.blogspot.com/
lol, what a funny story!
now you have us all wondering- did you reply back to them?
the top and skirt remind me of my hs uniform too (as someone else mentioned), but those shoes aren't ugly at all! i like them!
love love love love this outfit! you really make the boots work for this outfit.
What a perfect outfit!! I have to go to H&M!! Love the skirt!!
the boots look a bit crazy which is great! you can't always go for the safe way, right?
funny ladies, btw.
that skirt is a stunner. you should have said something anything in spanish, it would have freaked them out. i love to do stuff like that when people assume i cant understand them.
But the skirt is wonderful!!!
Ah, i love the outfit!
especially the skirt :)
It is not hideous, it is really pretty.
boots... sirt... i die...
The skirt is the most beautiful skirt I have seen in a very long time. Wow. I'm in love with it.
i hate it when that happens. they immediately conclude that you don't understand. how stupid of them to say that that skirt is hideous. it's amazing. i love it. is it on the current collection or old?
OMG! i totah-ly heart the skirt <3
Lol.
And your boots are crazy cool, I don't even think they're ugly... am I wierd?
That is pretty funny.
Something similar happened to me when I was in Vegas. I guess a Chinese girl isn't supposed to understand basic Spanish either.
no way...those ladies don't know what they're talking about
your skirt's awesome:)
perfect!! I love this outfit so lady... the skirt is gorgeus!
Nice to see you have found some options for the skirt, I was sure you would!
LM
x
Whaaaaoooooouuuu....!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gorgeous, beautiful, wonderful...
the skirt is adorable. not hideous at all.
I can't believe they said that about your skirt, it's so adorable! And I really like the way you atyled the boots with the rest of the outfit, I like how they "go" together but don't neccesarily match.
So there are the famous Michael Kors boots. They look really good with your skirt.
YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
really pretty skirt, and if i had heard them saying that i would have just turned and said 'Yup, pretty hideous isn't it?' in a sarcastic tone while smiling pleasantly. Man, they would be so embarrassed. hahahah!
i have the exact same shirt!!!and i really love it...i ADORE your skirt :)
:P
Those ladies have no idea what they're talking about.
Pay no attention, what you're wearing is stunning.
That skirt os fabulous! :o)
The skirt is my favourite part of the outfit! Haha. I'd love your wardrobe.
I love your outfit and it´s definitely
you're my fashion idol.. i cant get enough of what you wear!
those boots are amazing! you are the blogger with the best shoes, no lie :)
It makes me wish it was warm enough where I live to wear short skirts :D
I just started my own fashion blog, and I totally linked you- you're a great inspiration
you look fab...you make them ugly boots look nice! :)
toni: Yes I’m thinking about pairing these boots with some crazy off-white textured socks... must find them soon!
anon8:20: No I got it like last winter :(
anon8:34: Yea they do, she was the one who introduced me to these boots!
ashleigh: They were wearing sweatpants...
raych: I always feel like they’re talking about me when I get a pedicure...
lisa: Where did you order them from?
anon8:47: Haha thanks, it’s because of dance :)
the stylish wanderer: Just thought they look kind of cool hahaa
petra: It’s going well! Just made a tunic as a class project yesterday.
mabellie: I use “Minima Left Stretchy” and thankss for the love lady!

KARLA!!!!!
those 'duck' boots are soooooo hot with the skirt!!..
FAINTS a little.........
I couldn't tell if you were latina or not, but is cool to have such a stylish latina girl.
I think you look a little bit like Hilary Duff, but you have a nicer face.
Hideous? I love it. And maybe the boots are ugly, but in a strangely appealing way. . . haha that doesn't make a lot of sense but oh well.
I love this outfit!!!!
cute skirt.
hey Karla from one latina to another, whenever i get those catty comments in spanish what i have found uout that works best on these situation is to very politely look at them and say something like "buenas tardes como les va?". LOL its so funny to see how ashamed they feel about themselves... anyways ME ENCANTA tu estilo
btw what country r u or your family originally from?
besos
your skirt is so cut! :)
I would've replied...AY que pena, A mi me encanta mi falda....I love it!
I have a couple of poofy skirts and i get weird looks from ppl too especially since my legs are so long lol
I did a top 5 list for Venus Magazine, You are in it:

Me encanta esa falda! es simplemente ESPECTACULAR (me alegro de poder escribir en español y que me entiendas :D )
Ni caso a esas mujeres, está claro que no tienen idea de lo que dicen. Estás guapísima ;)
PD: que hablen español no significa que sean españolas, de hecho seguramente sean cubanas o puertorriqueñas, no españolas XDD
Besos.
You speak Spanish?
Me too, what's your ethnicity??
love this outfit!! and gorgeous chanel bag.
Karla i had no idea u are latin. isnt it funny? I have heard spanish people blabbering shamelessly thinking certain people because of the way they look wont understand. saying things like 'nigger this, etc' I love their faces when they get busted.
Love the bag and the blouse!
ya, those boots are savagely cool xx
That skirt is definitly not hideous.
Tu hablas espanol? Yo tambien. Me gusta mucho tu falda. Gris is perfecto!
Mira www.fashionintel.com

yeah i love that skirt, i wouldn't have been able to stop laughing if someone was talking about my clothes in french... haha. i couldn't resist saying something to them though :P
that skirt looks dangerous but lovely on you, and the bag is gorgeous aswell.
entonces tu entiendes español?? jeje

muaa
i love the skirt!!!
and you have the best legs. seriously. i'm jealous.
hideous? i love the skirt.the whole outfit too actually
oooh!i love you blog!
another OPI red obsessee! sometimes I think I'm the only one.
I love my OPI red nails, I'm currently rocking "Affair In Red Square" but I have like six others. Another favourite is "Bagota Blackberry".
Nothing sexier than short red nails.
Okay i usually love your outfits but.. this skirt makes you look like a waitress..there's something wrong with the proportions..anyway the bag and boots are amazing
GREAT outfit. I really hate when people who don't know what they're talking about go on and on about how much they hate certain clothes.
i remember seeing this skirt last year! you did an awesome job pairing it with the rest of the details :) as for the smack talkin' ladies...i've had that happen to me, too and i had to say porque no me lo dice a mi en la cara señora and her face was priceless. hahaha. anyway! beautiful as usual my dear <3
no way. I love that skirt! is really great! wear it more often, you have such toned legs! and...those shoes...=/ i like the concept of the outfit, but not the colors.
HERMOSA POLLERA! Those ladies were blind!
you look like a naughty school girl. pretty cute.
you should have said something to them :)
Boots are the way to go!
Especially ankle ones :)
Love your bag too
xo
fabulously cute skirt. i love it when older women give you those "sigh-is-this-what-that-crazy-younger-generation-is-coming-to" looks? they think they know. anyway you look adorable.
they are crazy, that skirt is beautiful!
love how you paired it with the crisp mens shirt... =)
i thought you were white too
LOVE THAT SKIRT!
CHECK MY WEBSITE OUT
INTOLERABLYCHIC.BLOGSPOT.COM
hahaha! I would totally start ranting out in Spanish if I were you. They obviously don't know their stuff, it's gorgeous.
It actually caught my eye before the shoes did. Btw, you definitely know how to pull those off.
i spy the "ugly" boots: http://www.garancedore.fr/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/taylor-tomasi2.jpg
I am glad you chose the colour you did:3
That's odd, the skirt was the first thing I noticed and I adore it!

They are so NOT hideous! I love your outfit!
Thats funny...I didn't know you were latin! So am I...and that happens ALL the time to me as well!At least you can laugh at it!!And that skirt looks fabulous! Besos!
Karla somos casi paisanas, mi familia es Mexicana de Sinaloa, muy cerca de Durango ; ). Me parece muy gracioso siempre como la gente cree que por tener la piel blanca no eres latina. Mi papá es rubio y mi hermano pelirrojo, go figure!! en fin... me encanta tu blog!!
muaK*
that clutch is AAAh mazing
i love it! love the shoes too - sort of the badass mixed with the lady. fab!
they were just jealous! you look adorable.
i have that skirt! It's awsome, so volumunous and pooftastic!
Style Bytes had it as well, when she was around of course!
<3<3<3
have the similar black skirt, also H&M - and love it!! so childishly cute! :))
you look super cute darling!
that skirt is so adorable
I love this outfit on you and esp adore the skirt, wish we in Australia had H&M (or even shipping to Aus!).
Meanwhile also loving the shoes! Strangely enough, I recently found a pair of ugly/odd-coloured green lace up boots at a vintage store (quite similar to yours), which I thought had potential (pic on my blog).
Here's to 'so ugly they're beautiful/funky' shoes :)
i think it look fab on you, really good outfit!
x
Next time that happens, snap back at then with an "I actually speak spanish" gets the mexican workers all the time when they whistle yell shit you knowwwwwww
Wow, I was just thinking how pretty is that skirt, and then I read your post. Those strange confused ladies. I hope you kicked them repeatedly in the shins to teach them a lesson.
