Monday's Mix: Mixed Florals

Tuesday's blouse.                             Friday's heels.

   Sunday's dress.

That's right friends.  I did it-
This blouse.  That dress.  And I made it work.

Well, at least I think I did.
And fashion's all about confidence, right?

True, it's a little bit of a crazy outfit.  But I've been feeling a bit crazy myself lately.
Perfect.







Alright, all separates taken from last week, and we have a brand new outfit for today's......

 Monday Mix

Monday's Mix: Ha! Not Plaid!

Ok friends.  Even I had doubts about sticking to no plaid for today's Monday mix.  

I mean, for goodness sake, every top I wore last week was plaid.  And I'm not about to create some sort of topless Monday Mix.  ewwww.

But, ah- ha!  Remember how I layered a striped shirt under Wednesday's plaid?  

No? you don't?  

What? you're not paying attention to every single detail of my outfits?

How dare you.

Well, no matter.  I remembered.  Luckily.

Wednesday's striped shirt and booties.      Friday's pants.  

and here we go... these separates mixed from last week's post is today's:

Monday Mix

Happy new week everyone!

Monday's Mix: Madam Librarian

     Sunday's blouse.                                 Wednesday's jumper.

Thursday's tights.                                    Sunday's heels.

Happy halloween out there.  Today I maaaybe got dressed up for the holiday. 

Is it a costume?

Is it a normal outfit?

No one knows.

And I'll just keep it that way, thanks.  While shushing those noisy kids over in the periodicals.

ok friends, here you go...  

Monday Mix

What?! It's Not Monday Anymore?

Ok, ok.  Haven't done a Monday Mix in ages.  But I thought I'd remix away.  On a Tuesday.

Whatever.

 Thursday's shirt.                                    Monday's jeans.

 Monday's scarf.                             Wednesday's heels.

and the brand new, fancy-pants outfit is.....

Hey, you gotta restart somewhere.

Monday's Mix: Well, almost.

 Saturday's sundress.  Wednesday's shorts.  Friday's sandals.

Alright, you got me.  I added a key element to this outfit that was not originally worn last week.
But you know what?  I make the rules.  So I can break the rules.

Ha. Take that, black-and-straw hat.
You're lucky you're so cute and can get away with this kind of stuff.
Other hats may not have been so lucky.

and we have...

Moday's Mix

Monday's Mix: Let's Romp!

Wednesday's romper.  Tuesday's shoes.  Friday's scarf.

I love rompers because:

They're like a dress, but with holes to put your legs through.
You don't have to worry about coordinating a top and bottom.  Just throw it on and you're set.
If you're feeling creative, you can layer or accessorize the heck out of them.
They are comfortable.  Like a onesie for big kids.

Do I have you convinced yet?
So come on, throw on your favorite one and let's take a romp!


here we go...

Monday's Mix: Can I Really Wear This?

Wednesday's sweater.  Friday's blouse.  Tuesday's shorts.  Thursday's wedges.

I really love doing this Monday Mix thing because it shows me (and hopefully you too, dear readers) that I (or you) can do ANYTHING with what you already have your the closet.  Or your suitcase.  Or the trunk of your car. (that one's for you, miss b)

And I have a lot of fun coming up with these fresh and different ensembles using a very limited source of clothing.  But today is the first time that my Monday Mix outfit sorta-kinda feels like I just threw on a whole bunch of pieces from last week (maybe because they happened to be on my bedroom floor??) and I just can't decide if this look is really a complete thought or just a whole bunch of separate ideas.

I think it's the two different floral prints that are doing me in.

But, like a good little blogger, I'm gonna post it anyway.  Through thick and thin, I say.

Hey, we can't all have perfect-outfit days.  So I'm just gonna stay inside and drink my coffee and hide from the rest of the world.  

Um, apparently the internet doesn't count as the rest of the world?  Whoops. 

ok, here we go...

The Monday Mix

Monday's Mix: Shorts of Lace

hello everyone, it's Monday again.  sigh.

Here's the week's mixing ingredients -

                                    Wednesday's cardigan                             Tuesday's shorts

                                        Friday's belt                                       Saturday's wedges

alright, I know you can hardly contain your excitement...

the Monday Mix is

I know.  It's the lace shorts.  Again. 

Sorry, I can't help it.

Let's take this opportunity to review just how often I've worn these in the past month.  We'll call it a lesson in Re-Mixing.  This makes me feel better about myself.

-Some lady-like laciness here.

-A quirky yellow day here.

-Today's post.  Obvi.

-I even slipped them into this post, wearing them like a lace slip under a shorter dress. 

oh wow, no pun intended.

So there you go.  You never knew how versatile cream lace shorts can be.  Your welcome. 

sidenote:  along with wearing dirty clothes ever Monday, I apparently never have enough energy to put contacts in either.  Claaaaa-see.
