Six more outfits | splendid or sack ’em

Six more outfits. Splendid or sack ’em? Six more outfit ideas (the link will take you to six more) in six minutes if you’re a fast reader. ~grin~ I still think that the most obvious reason for posting oufits of any kind is that I have a record of what I’ve already worn–AND–what I want to wear again. As in favorites. It’s easy to forget how you styled things–which makes it tough to duplicate. Some combinations are mwaah. Seriously. Other times the combinations are horrid and oh-so-NOT very wearable. A girl needs to know these things. She oughta.
#1–ADORNit jacket [a really fabulous one]–tan Isaac Mizrahi for Target skirt–pink fabric flower–fabulous shoes–simple top underneath the jacket
The skirt has a tailored yoke.  Love that. I generally buy skirts in a larger size in order to wear them lower on my hips–it’s definitely more complimentary.  As a rule, I don’t wear skirts that are gathered at the waist because it’s ick-a-stink-en-stein. [Unflattering on moi.]
A closer look at details.

I fiddled with highlighting and contrast to see if the fabulous flowers would show up any clearer. Eh.

#2–ADORNit wrap jacket [it even has a hood for use on bad hair days–I probably should have used it in this photo]–a creme stretch-lace top [tags have a short life in my closet–they are quickly removed–which means I don’t know where it was purchased]–Dillard’s denim skirt–brown suede boots–a fun necklace which is invisible to the human eye

[This blazer–and the one before–are easily paired with jeans and fabulous footwear.]
This is the necklace–which is now visible to the human eye.
#3–scarf from Annie–denim blazer–thrifted tan, nameless skirt that I love–Matisse cowboy boots [from an igstore]–simple top underneath the blazer
[That’s as ‘Giddy-up’ as I get.]

[I look all sad and dejected with my shoulders rolling forward in this next photo–like there’s a burden or something.  I think it means I need a puppy.  And some pointers about posture.]

#4–London Times grey dress–Downeast rose ruffled cardigan–fabulous necklace–polka dot tights–turquoise flats with bows

I love those tights.

[I added two inches to the length of the dress with a darker grey panel around the hem.  It was simple to add a 3″ piece of the darker grey to the outside of the waistband. That piece was added for balance as well as to avoid the obvious “that-dress-must-have-been-too-short” kind of look.] 

The necklace.
The tights.

The shoes.

#5–thrifted houndstooth jacket–simple black tee–Old Navy Jeans–turquoise flats with bows–red clip on flower

Simple, simple, simple.

Aaaaand the best picture on the post is the best picture on the post because someone else (Amber) took it.  Thanks for that.

#6–ADORNit button up chambray shirt–ivory ruffle tank–Downeast ivory 1/2 top–red maxi skirt–cowboy boots–fabulous necklace

The ruffled tank.

Tun-tun-tun-tah!

[Layers are a deal in this one. A big deal.]

6 outfits in less than six minutes if all you did was look at pictures.

~grin~

I think I should ask Amber to take more pictures for me.
