Worn Two Ways: Citrus

I'm kind of obsessed with citrus-y hues like citron and grapefruit lately.  And I'm even more obsessed with wearing them together.  So much so, that I've recently worn them together two different ways:

The first outfit was for a Sunday brunch:

Top: LOFT (similar)  Skirt: thrifted (similar) 
Earrings: via Crafty Wonderland (similar) Shoes: Lollipops (similar)

Changing the look up for work required more grapefruit (because of course), so I added the cardigan. I also swapped out the earrings for a less dramatic pair:

Top: LOFT (similar)  Cardigan: Target
Skirt: thrifted (similar)  Shoes: Lollipops (similar)

To be honest, I liked both looks equally.  The colors pair well and, I think, look so fresh with the white.  But, what about you, Reader Friends?  Which outfit is your favorite?


Happy Wednesday, All!

Same Print, Different Scale

So, the other day I ordered a floral blouse from Nordstrom Rack.  Soon after, I was in Sephora, which out here is housed in a JC Penney, and I spotted what looked like the same floral print.

And it was the same print, just on a different scale and in skirt form.  So, of course, I immediately purchased said skirt and promptly wore both pieces together:

See?  Same print, different scale:

Also, studded boots.



Because I figure that if you happen to find two items in the same print but a different scale, you're practically obligated to wear them together:

Blouse: Wayf via Nordstrom Rack  Skirt: JC Penney
Turtleneck: Gap Tights: SPANX  Boots: Ash (similar save, splurge)

Right?  Right.

Now, unfortunately, I can't find either the top or the skirt online, but I've picked some coordinating pieces below that I think would be pretty great together.


Happy Monday, All!

Double Plaid and a Big Ol' Tassel

It's true.  I'm wearing double plaid and a big ol' tassel:

Quite possibly the biggest of big ol' tassels, but, I can't help it, it makes me happy.



Especially when paired with double plaid:

The skirt is vintage wool, thrifted, of course and I think it pairs perfectly with this plaid shirt:

I finished the look with my trusty riding boots:

Shirt: Banana Republic  Skirt: thrifted vintage
Scarf: La Fiorentina (also in red) Belt: Michael Michael Kors (similar) Boots: Born Crown (similar)

And, of course, the big ol' tassel.  As one does.


Happy Friday, All!

Big Ol' Blogger

I took a bit of a risk with this outfit, pairing a voluminous cape with a voluminous circle skirt:

The prevailing logic is that you're supposed to pair bulky pieces with slim pieces, but, I just didn't feel like it.  I wanted to wear my big ol' cape with a big ol' skirt and I didn't give a heck if it made me look like a big ol' blogger.

And, honestly, I just don't think it's that bad.  I felt great in this outfit.


With or without the cape, this outfit is just right up my sartorial alley:

I mean, it's a vintage circle skirt, a vintage cape and a turtleneck:

Cape: vintage, thrifted (save, splurge)  Turtleneck: LL Bean, thrifted (similar)
Belt: Michael Kors (similar)   Skirt: vintage, thrifted (similar)
Boots: Sole Society

So, yeah, if this is what a big ol' blogger looks like, I'll be that.  I'll be that all day long.


Happy Thursday, All!
