30 for 30: take six!







{tank - target | cardigan - caslon via nordstrom | skirt - thrifted | scarf - gifted | tights - gap | peep toe pumps - ecco | bag - anthropologie | bracelets - vintage via family hand me down}


today i decided to dress up a bit. it usually happens after i have a bad day, the next morning i wake up and think "self, dress up today!". there's just something about heels and a skirt that make a girl (at least this girl) feel good... until my feet start hurting. and then i whine about heels and the fact women only wear them as a fatal combination of wanting to appear taller/thinner/sexier. see, there i go... sorry. 

what worked: it was comfortable, and i love the combo of the black, white, and the pop of the chartreuse sweater.

what didn't work: the skirt is a little big to be considered a "pencil skirt". add that to the list of things that i want to replace when i'm finished with this 30 for 30 challenge. i also had issues keeping the tank "straight" mostly because the fabric is so slippery.

thank you all for the lovely comments! it really truly makes my day! and i love reading about all of my fellow remixers & their adventures with stepping outside of the box with their 30 items! it's so inspiring.

xoxo,
pilar

  2. I like the way you mixed these two patterns, and you're right. The chartreuse just pops off the page! It's one of my favorite colors for this fall, and yet I have nothing in that color. Must remedy!
