Day 13: The Perfect Storm

Hey guys! Wow! It has been raining like crazy all day yet its super warm....I blame the heat death (look it up, its so much scarier than global warming!!) After wading through puddles for the two blocks from my car to school, my flats were completely drenched through. I'm dying to get some cute Wellies or Hunter boots. Any suggestions?

I didn't really have inspiration behind this outfit. This skirt is the 30th piece-now I've worn everything at least once. I wanted to wear it high-waisted and since its waist is elastic, the belt was neccessary. That got my inspired to do a military/girly look hence the army green tee. While I admire it from afar, I haven't personally gotten into the military look, maybe because my overall look isn't that urban. This challenge has made me appreciate how so few pieces can form many outfits, but its also helping pinpoint what's really missing in my wardrobe.

After school today I lounged on my bed and just listed a bunch of thoughts I have so far about the 30 for 30. I'll probably post them on the last day and see if my feelings are the same. I think my main idea was that I went into this thinking it was one of those fun remixes they do in 17 magazine all the time on a larger scale, but its evoked some deep thoughts about personal style and our obsession with quantity. (umm anyone else really excited about the new Costco??)

  1. I love that you weren't afraid to mix black and brown. I think those are two colors that are better together!!

  2. The skirt is great high-waisted. It is always fun to see lots of bloggers style the same piece. Seeing that skirt lots of ways just go to show how anyone can individualize any article of clothing. Too bad that skirt is far to short for me.
