My Outfit: Mixin’ It Up

After I ran all my errands yesterday, I came home and changed into a different outfit for happy hour with friends, which included meeting up with the lovely Audrey of Homerunballerina. If you haven’t checked out her blog, do so now. Her style is so pretty and fresh. So, now who can tell me what my favorite items of clothing are right now? Polka dotted tights? Check. Faux fur vest? Check. Boyfriend vest? Check. This blouse is another favorite that I scored back in the spring from Beacon’s Closet. I think it’s an old Liz Claiborne actually. Anyway, I am really enjoying mixing up different patterns, prints and materials, and really like the contrast of the checks against the fur, coupled with the subtle little dots on the tights. Are you guys having fun with patterns? Do you tend to mix and match them or just wear one print at a time?

    I am trying to get more courageous with mixing of prints… and I am a huge fan of mixing textures too. I love how you’ve done both here, and I must get some polka dot tights… they are fantastic!

    Love this outfit! You look fantastic. I love the vest…the tights… the shoes…I love everything about this out. The hint of purple peeking out of the blouse is super great too. Nice job! :)
