Wore this yesterday on Thursday. The high was 80degrees!! And I wore tights. I guess it's still too cold for me.

I've figured out a way to get out of my inspiration funk. I'm going to use myself as my inspiration...since I'm so inspiring. I've been going through my past outfits and trying to recreate them - Project Outfits v.2.0. They're not going to be exactly the same now that my style is different and better...like a lot better...and I'm a lot prettier...and don't look like I'm 12 anymore...maybe 15.

Don't forget about my new giveaway. There aren't a lot of entries yet as it's only the second day so your chance of winning is a 99% maybe.

I'm wearing a thrifted plaid dress ($5), yellow scarf (gift from Melissa), JCPenney tights (free with gift cards), Target clogs (gift from my in-laws), and JCPenney bag (free with gift cards).

Buy: shoes, bowler bag
Shop: plaid dresses, yellow scarf, fishnet tights
Your shoes and bag is AMAZING. I want both of them.

Love the idea that you're recreating outfits. Any chance of a link back to the original so we can see how your style has evolved?
ReplyDeleteOh wow! The "clogs" were unrecognizable as themselves. I was wondering if you got new shoes but it was just the awesome tights you're wearing camouflaging them. I love today's color and pattern mixing.
