PURCHASED/ PURLOINED/ CREATED/ GIFTED/
Oh thank you IRS for causing a delayed posting for this week's challenge. I managed to schedule my favorite theme -- Pattern Maxing -- in my least favorite week -- Tax Deadline. I'm back dating this and we'll all pretend that today is Sunday. If only!Since I'm bombarding you daily with all of the fake journaling of Enid, I'm compiling the four outfits that I wore to work last week. I was inspired to new heights of pattern mixing [or maxing, as I like to say] by the Create 28 Lovely Spring Looks Challenge, the brainchild of Whitney A La Mode and Carrie of A Lovely Little Wardrobe. [I'm trying to do the challenge with my socks, but it is getting more and more difficult. Today's prompt is "Spring Dresses". How on earth can a sock be a spring dress?]
Anyway, on the the kooky outfits:
Monday. "Pattern on Bottom" Pattern everywhere except for my tights. |
Tuesday. "Pastels" Pattern or embellishment everywhere except the faux Keds |
Wednesday. Off theme. Pattern everywhere. Especially liked the leopard under the striped tee. Note Jean's neck cowl [gifted] worn as a bum cover/ hip warmer. |
Thursday. "Floral" The coworkers gave me many compliments on the recently rediscovered circle skirt. |
Go on, give it a try! Baby steps welcome too -- try a stripe with floral.
I have a helpful pattern mixing post here.
