Daily Outfit - 1/26/12

I am no stranger to pattern mixing and the more and more I do it the more bold I am willing to go. When I added this leopard sweater to my closet I couldn't help but notice how well the colors went with this Ellen Tracy blouse I thrifted a couple of months ago. I loved the idea of layering the two pieces together (and it reminds me a bit of the inspiration picture below). I decided to add in some more pattern with my tights and shoes also. The neutral color palette helped keep the outfit looking cohesive I think.

Leopard Sweater - Old Navy, on sale for $15 (Dec. 2011)
Necklace - Miz Outlet (Item # JN1096), $1.99 (spotted the same necklace at a mall jewelry store for $8!)

I love it when I come across easy, fun dresses that don't require you to layer under and/or over them (and why is that so hard to find?!). So, when I spotted this bright purple dress with the extra detailing of the cinched sides and pockets I knew I needed to grab it. It was the perfect piece to just had a patterned infinity scarf and booties too.

Daily Outfit - 1/24/12

I have to admit it - I kept petting myself in this outfit. This sweater is so soft and the fur so cuddly and warm. I decided to do some fairly bold pattern mixing too with the stripe shirt and print skirt as I was  inspired by a look on Pinterest (imagine that!).

Daily Outfit - 1/23/12

Today was the first Monday in over 4 weeks that I had to work one and whoa, I could feel it! I have become addicted to 3-day weekends. Oh well, until I win that lottery I better just enjoy. A great way to celebrate a Monday is by wearing a fun, new zigzag skirt. I just can't get enough of adding this bright royal blue to black and white (I did here, here and here also).
