So, if more days than not are a hot mess this week, please forgive me in advance LOL! There may be a reason that the items have been on hangers and not me. :-) At any rate, we are taking a page from the book of Tim Gunn...
Today, I was determined to make this work:

So, I wore this:

Red Sweater - Newport News $14 (with coupon codes)
Pants - Very very old pants from Express $??
Shoes - Chadwicks $11 (on sale + coupon code)
Scarf - The Gap - $13 (on sale +coupon codes)
Whats the problem with the scarf?
Its a little stiff and bulky. Its a wool and rayon blend, so I expected it to be a much softer hand - like one of those acrylic pashminas. But, its not...so its a little tricky to manage.
Did my solution work?
Maybe. Its probably the only way I could wear it due to the length and thickness.
Will it make another appearance?
The magic eight ball says: All signs point to yes. Well. That's interesting. I guess so!
It's a beautiful scarf and your picked a great color palette to wear with it!
ReplyDeleteI love your posts because you think the way I do - I pick one item I really want to wear and try to construct an outfit around it!

ReplyDeleteI love that scarf on you! I would not have realized it was stiff just looking at it on you.
ReplyDeleteKyla - Thanks!
ReplyDeleteKelly - I get way too overwhelmed otherwise LOL. My husband will find me sitting on the floor of the closet surrounded in clothes!

Patina - Thanks, I am sure I will keep it - it won't hurt to keep it around.
