The first of the month is always promising, almost like the first day of the New Year - it often offers a fresh start so it's but fitting we start May with an outfit post.
Admittedly, these photos were taken awhile back, the thought process behind this outfit is current.
If anyone of you has got a closet (or two, or three… you lucky girl you!) full, no, crammed with clothes yet everyday, you stand there, not knowing what to wear…
Say Amen.
I'm sure you're all mischievously nodding your head, trying to hide that impish smile, aren't you?
I know I am.
Outfit details:
Chevron silk dress - Forever 21
Ruffle jacket - Banana Republic, Gift from EM
Earrings and other accessories - Gifts from friends
Black patent shoes - Guess, Gift from E
So here's a good example, date night, romantic dinner… Oh my God, what do I wear? We really shouldn't be having this problem anymore, yes? Oh but we do. All the time.
I think this is one of the prime benefits of fashion blogs, whether you've got one or you follow one.
Special note: Stay tuned for a beautiful Smashbox give-away very soon.
You get to see ideas, real life ideas from those who actually lives in the real world, not the runway, not the print magazines, which we all know are blessed with an army of stylists, hair and make-up artists and moreover, the technical savvy of an entire team of digital artists.
Fashion and style blogs provide interesting ideas and fresh takes on things. Different twist that breathes new life to old outfits but you may not have thought of it before. Like my aversion towards silver and gold, which in my opinion, is just not traditionally a winning combination. Call me old fashion... or just plain old.
So I tried. Thank you fashion blogs!
What about you, what has fashion blogs made you do?
