I thought it would be fun to throw back today to one of my first fashion posts. I think I started in late 2013, documenting random outfits, but this post comes from the pretty much same time of year. I thought it would be fun to put on the outfit to see how it looks now, or how I would style the exact same clothes 2 years later, but you'll have to come back on Wednesday for that to see my teacher look... As for my two year through back, you can read the original post here or just continue on.

WHAT I CAME UP WITH:
side note: I should really get another maroon piece for my wardrobe. Repeating the same pants over the course of 3 weeks was no fun. Maybe a maroon blazer? Or textured leggings??? Also? I need to work on taking better pictures....
Up in February will be the dressing up of oversized sweaters, me thinks. I may change my mind.

Last year, in order to keep my winter wardrobe innovating, I decided to force myself to make an outfit out of whatever came next in the shirt section of my closet. Twas loads of fun inventing outfits plus it helped me get rid of things I wasn't really using.
This year I plan on resorting to Pinterest to recreate some outfits that I have seen and loved and figured that I could likely pull off with what I have.
For January, I decided to focus on a deep purple/maroon/burgundy/wine...really? what colour is this???? combo with browns/creams and blacks.
WHAT I LOVED:

Hey a girl can change her mind!! Have always loved maroon! Great color for you! Hope your week gets off to a great start!
ReplyDeleteFinally found them! I like that they are textured and not your regular run of the mill leggings. I think they'd look great on you! http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bp-moto-washed-leggings/3928692?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&contextualcategoryid=0&fashionColor=BURGUNDY+STEM&resultback=342
ReplyDeleteYou're so far ahead of the fashion curve than me, wearing those maroon pants two years ago. And I just got a pair! Same color combo I had on last week. You look fab! Can't wait to see the recreate on Wednesday!

I don't see you in a scarf much! It dawned on me when I saw you in the leopard one. Also, love the pendant necklace in the bottom middle. I want one like it. Or like that one Sheaffer has that has the teal beads. I also want Sheaffer's slim profile Uggs, but they are SO much money. I think I got off topic. Maroon is great on you! Back on.
ReplyDeleteI don't know...whatever you put on, it creates great style. Your unique and fun style.
ReplyDeleteI'm wearing maroon pants right meow! Oh and someone was saying...who's blog was I reading...there's a B.P. pair of leggings at Nordstrom that I think are calling your name...please hold I'll go find them.
