Calling All Fashionistas!!

Inspiration

Yep, that means you!!

I gain outfit inspiration everyday from looking at OPBs (other people's blogs), and I want to include some of those great inspiring outfits with September's Inspiration Calendar.

Please submit a blog link to an outfit you have worn (could be last week, could be last September - you pick!) to be included in the September Inspiration Calendar. There are 22 spots open - if I get more submissions than that I will draw names and if I don't get enough submissions I am going to have to come pestering you to submit an outfit pic (don't make me beg!).

If you submit a link by Tuesday, August 25 you will receive a chance to win a great "Accessories Gift Pack" I have put together that includes a new wristlet, two scarves, a vintage necklace, fun vintage ring and probably more!

You may submit your entry by leaving a comment on this post, submitting one via the Kontactr form at the bottom of the page or emailing me directly.

I can't wait to see your submissions!

How about blacks and grays with a pop of color? Here are two examples.

I got alot of complements the day I wore this...I feel it's a casual transitional outfit for early fall.

I also like the July 30 outfit too for fall...don't know why I can't get a link to copy...

Thanks for the opportunity! I'll be thinking extra hard now for some unique ideas!

I am not kimberly but I am bossy so...

Could you all EXPLAIN your outfit idea so I know what to work from? (easier on kimberly too) Sometimes it is hard to guess what you are going for.

Hey girl,

I don't have a blog, but I have flickr links. How about bright contrasty colours (my fave)?

Examples

How about bright green and navy blue? I think this is one of the better color combos I've come up with in a while:

I'm feeling like I'm in a funk, but here's one of my favorite outfits that keep me inspired:

I wore this outfit today and I think the combining the voluminous skirt with the masculine vest creates a nice contrast. Hope other people find it inspiring:

Hey Kimberly! How about this one? Black dress, ivory sweater - http://www.amycarriere.com/2009/08/professional-polish/. I was going for "Professional Polish". I'd love to see this accessorized the Kimberly way! XOXO, MissAmy

Diana said...

If I'm not too late, could I submit this outfit?

http://kittyscreations.wordpress.com/2009/08/06/daily-outfit-dress-v3-0/

I often have trouble forcing myself to wear outfits of all neutrals, but I think that it can be an interesting exercise.

If you'd rather use a different one, then how about an aqua and red combo? I found that a lot of fun.

Here are a couple of ideas from my past.

Idea: Let a scarf dominate your outfit.

Can't wait to see the new calendar!

Fun idea Kimberly!
Here's my two inspiration ideas:

Dress over pants! Make your summer dresses earn their keep :)

or

Wear a jumper. Jumpers are fun since you can wear all sorts of tops under them.

What about Bermuda Shorts??...you havent included them in your Inspiration Calendar yet
I wear them a lot lol
Should i send you a pic or you can choose the best one from my blog
Let me know

Sara said...

Nothing like waiting til the last minute! Sorry I'm such a slacker.

How about navy and a jewel tone? My outfit today was one of my favorites ever, I think. http://tinyurl.com/kqmm7a

Or how about challenging your readers to wear that one item in their closet that they always put on but never wear out of the house - I bet a lot of people have them and just need that little push to boost their confidence enough to wear it. It's like a double dog dare for the fashion set! http://tinyurl.com/nzxdd8

And finally, I don't have an example of where I've worn it (yet) but how about a Gossip Girl inspired day for the season premiere on 9/14? You know Closet Girl will be all over that day!!! LOL
