I'm going to give my creative voice more ownership in the next couple Wednesday style posts and show you what has inspired me, in the fashion realm. Whenever I'm browsing the web, I keep my eyes out for things that I'd like to recreate and make my own.
1) Jillian Harris. I love everything she wears (and everything about her) (especially her affinity for beer and her potty mouth), but this outfit really stuck out. I tried it with my light distressed boyfriend jeans (Gap) and then decided in the end that they are too baggy and made my already short and thick muscular legs look shorter and muscularer. So I went with my dark Jessica Simpson skinny jeans. I was also more comfortable and that's important. I paired it with my light pink Gap jacket that Dan got me 8 years ago.
2) My other woman crush, Anna Kendrick. I saw Pitch Perfect 2 last weekend and I loved it as much as I loved the first. Anna Kendrick is my favourite. So of course I wanted to remake this outfit when I saw it. I didn't end up wearing this out as I decided that my grey jeggings weren't right for my body: they keep sliding down my hips and then I get baggy butt. I'll have to keep my eyes out for something better as I do really like how grey goes with everything, especially stripes and polka dots.
And while we're at it...let's talk what I've been window shopping this week....joggers/soft pants/harem pants

Have you thought about getting the invisibelt to hold your pants up? I wear mine with jeans all the time and I love it. May be something to check out. Can't wait to see next weeks outfits :)
ReplyDeleteI love the Jillian Harris outfit with the dark jeans. Can Dan please go shopping with Hugh for me? Hugh is clueless and that coat is one of the many things Dan has purchased you that I adore. Also, Christy.. . . .I need to hear more about this invisibelt. My non-existent booty means constant saggy pants!
ReplyDeleteum, those polka dot grey sneakers...awesome! I love Anna Kendrick and can't wait to see the movie. I think you nailed all three outfits!
ReplyDeleteThomas and I LOVE Anna Kendrick and Pitch Perfect. We haven't had a chance to see the second one yet. You totally nailed her outfit - looks great! I may steal that pink jacket from you.
ReplyDeleteLove both outfits. I really like your boyfriend jeans actually also -Anna Kendrick has a special peice of my heart. Just a small one though cause fat Amy takes up a good chunk.
ReplyDeleteYou must see numero 2. SOOOOOO funny. It made me love Anna Kendrick even more
ReplyDeleteYou look great in both of these, but that pink jacket is the truth!

ReplyDeleteOh my. You kill me. I saw you saw PP2 twice. I need to go again, no other movie makes me grin ear to ear as much as that one.
