there's something that i like about an unexpected combination. maybe it's the rebel in me, but i think that pattern and texture should always be worn together. i'm also a firm believer in pairing pieces of clothing that you maybe wouldn't have thought to put together. i can definitely say that i end up wearing my clothes with other things that i never would have thought to put together until they were in my closet. call me crazy, but i think things that are just a little different, off the beaten path, unexpected. i think that's part of my style mantra, if i had to say.
what about you? do you like to take risks with your clothes or stick to the things you know?
oh i love it! so cute! and yes, i totally do that - it's one of the fun challenges about getting dressed in the morning! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the pattern/texture combination, too. Orange is a great color on you! And as always, I'm a fan of polka dots.
ReplyDeleteI only have a few risky pieces in my closet. But, I find myself drawn to those pieces often, especially when I am looking to feel better about the day. Would love to be more risky in fashion. Love the polka dots!
ReplyDeletesuch a lovely blouse on you! xo

ReplyDeleteCute combo! I love your shoes, they look so comfy. Where are they from?
ReplyDeleteJust kidding. I just saw that you put where they are from. Excuse me - my coffee hasn't kicked in yet!
DeleteLove the top, the colors are adorable!

This outfit is so fun! I tend to play it safe more than anything else. I do like to choose fun textures and colors, but I know that if I walk out the door and don't feel confident immediately, I'll feel weird all day.
ReplyDeleteLove the pop of color on a dreary winter day! So cute!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I never would have thought to put these pieces together but they go so wonderfully!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Francesca's. If I could get most of my clothes from there I would. Unfortunately my bank account doesn't agree with me. Luckily when they have sales, those sales are AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit! :)

I love the shirt! I also like to mix patterns/textures - usually I'll pair something more edgy or masculine with something feminine, like a studded belt with a floral dress :)
