30 For 30 Remix, Day 22: Too Much?

Flats: Nine West, jeggings and sweater: Old Navy, shirt: J. Crew, bag: Coach, tie belt worn as bow: from a pair of shorts from Target.The bow got major mixed reviews today...to my face. Which is fine. I can deal. I'm just still not sure how I feel about this look.

Here's my problem--I love dated things. Things like....neckties. Top hats. Ascots. I've seen this bow tie look all over the internet, but not in Real Life. (Check it.) And I know that things we see on the internet should not always be used as cues to make decisions. I think maybe with the curly hair, the look is a little too...precious? Maybe with a white shirt and leather jacket to toughen things up, it might work?

Consider this a fashion miss for now, but I'm not giving up on this bow tie look. I'm going to make it work, guys...just wait and see.

30 For 30 Remix, Day 14: Comfort Zone

Heels and bag: Coach, denim: Anthropologie, tunic: Splendid (via Anthropologie), sweater: Old Navy, shades: Ray-Ban, ring: souvenir from Ireland, bracelet: Tiffany & Co.

I'm learning some things about myself through the Remix. One of them is that I rarely deviate from my comfort zone...which is jeans and some sort layered top/sweater or top/blazer combo. Part of me thinks this is okay because it's....me. But another part of me really wants to get creative and try something totally new.

Other observations:

I love animal prints. (Did I mention that this sweater was $12.50? Yeah, that's ridiculous.)

I just love jeans. They're like, my thing.

I don't love skirts. I have 3 skirts in my remix and have worn one once so far. Major skirt fail. I'll have to start wearing them more. Or, maybe not...

I love this pink tunic I got for Christmas (also see it here). It's a tad long for layering like this, but it works, I think.

I'm trying to figure out what other patterns are emerging through this process about my style. How can I really mix things up?! Any comments/thoughts?

30 For 30 Remix, Day 8: 101 Dalmation Dots

Denim: Anthropologie, dalmation-print sweater: Old Navy, leather jacket: The Limited, black flats: GAP, shades: Urban Outfitters, bag: Coach, ring: souvenir from Ireland, necklace and bracelets: Old Navy, silver bracelet: Tiffany & Co.

What’s black and white and spotted all over? Dalmation puppies? YES. And this little sweater from Old Navy that I paid $12.50 for. (RIGHT?!) My love for animal prints is no secret. I liked pairing these dashing dots with the leather jacket...I think it gives it a retro vibe. Seriously…there was a red motorcycle in the parking lot that I almost hopped on today.

I think I’ll layer this sweater with the pink tunic for a future remix…? We’ll see. You’ll definitely spot it again soon though. Spot…get it? See what I did there?
