Top (worn like this)- Marshalls; Skirt, Shoes, Belt, Earrings & Rings- Thrifted; Necklace- RW&CO After a week of wearing nothing but black & white I was ready to wear the most colourful outfit I could conjure up (that was still work appropriate which is always the challenge). I decided to showcase my $2 skirt that I recently thrifted with my versatile striped top for an ensemble that is both mix & match. |
No that's not a white prison yard behind me, it's the atrocious eyesore that lines the perimeter of our new home! Since replacing fences is quite costly, we are thinking of planting hedges in front for added privacy and to improve the aesthetics (because as much as we love the house, the fence was almost enough to deter us from buying it in the first place!) I guess you could say we judge a house by its fence...
I feel like a starburst (the galaxy version) in this outfit (Mmm now I'm craving Starburst candies, too bad they're only veggie friendly in the UK, dratted gelatin you ruin all my fun!)
Love the shoes! :)
ReplyDeleteEmily this so pretty and feminine. Really well matched although patterns are different. Perfectly mixed. Dawn suitcase vignettes xo
ReplyDeleteO! You look so bright and cheerful in this! You can really carry this outfit off; the mix of patterns is brilliant.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, this combo is amazing. You look fabulous. Adore this post, love. I've got a brand new outfit post inspired by one of my favorite TV characters. I'd love if you'd check it out. xo

What a way to come back to brights after your B&W challenge! You rocked this pattern mixing and the color combo is beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteI love how colourful it is! I usually tend to gravitate to monochromatic outfits involving a lot of black and I really appreciate a good burst of colour!

so you're telling me that somewhere out there, there is a veggie-friendly starburst? i must find them!! i am happy that they just made skittles veggie-friendly! anyways, i love your outfit. the colors of the shirt and skirt are perfect together! we have an ugly fence in our backyard, too and i'm thinking of growing vines on it to cover it up!
ReplyDeleteWowsa! Now that's color! I applaud your boldness, in fashion and in everything else. You're one of my favorite people, Emily.

Yay for striped tops and floral skirts! Great minds think alike, but I love how different our outfits turned out. Yours has such a great country club chic vibe. I'm freaking DYING to hear about your new house! Next week can't come fast enough.

such a great skirt you find for 2 dollars
ReplyDeleteI love this colorful, funky outfit--the colors make those patterns mix perfectly!! And I like your fence-covering idea, my house was "blessed" with an ugly fence too.
ReplyDeleteI like your new thrifted skirt your top! Definitely DO the hedges. when we moved in our house 4 yrs ago, we had a yucky view of the middle school dumpster behind our backyard fence. now they have added 2 more dumpsters, but we can only see them if we carefully look between the greenery. too bad we can't silence the garbage man. :p i loathe gelatin.
ReplyDeleteI love the purple, and you really scored with that skirt!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you've mixed these two patterns!
