Day 8: Jewel Tones

Hey guys! Do you like the funky door hanging? It's been getting dark too early to take pics outside so I'm taking advantage of our brightly painted house as a new backdrop. My outfit today had an different silhouette, which I'm not sure I liked, but overall I'm happy with the look. A certain friend told me the boots were "peter pan-ish" so I unfolded them, which for some reason had never occured to me. The combination of the slouchy top, stiff skirt, knit tights, and suede boots created a cool mish-mash of fabrics.

When planning my outfits I feel like I'm wearing the same thing everyday and yesterday I really started experimenting with jewelry to spice it up. I was inspired by Jessica of http://www.whatiwore.tumblr.com/, who did a post on a DIY pendant earlier this week. She recommended attaching a fun pin or earring to a chain and creating a whole new necklace. As I was riffling through my mom's jewelry box, I found this fabulous silver pin with blue gems and knew I had to transform it into a necklace. It didn't match today's outfit so you'll be seeing it soon. I borrowed this bracelet (necklace wrapped around 4x) from my mom and the purple stones went perfectly with this top. Stay tuned for a jewelry related surprise!
