I braved public transport on the day of Bay to Breakers! I thought the city wouldbe a mad house but truthfully it was more like a ghost town. Regardless it made me further excited (not possible) for my move. "What move?" you may be wondering. I AM MOVING TO THE CITY!!!! So here I am all dressed and ready to win some possible future roommates over. Whether or not they were won remains to be seen :)

Inspired by: Clothed Much

I started the day in boots and tights but this crazy spring weather we are having allowed me to change into sandals. Yay warm weather!!! This week I was inspired by Elaine of I'm Clothed Much. She posted this outfit and commented on her husband not liking the mix of teal and blue. She liked it and so did I. I've had it in the back of my mind wanting to try mixing similair colors that are rarely worn together. I decided to pair my green skirt with this teal (turquoise? what color is that? teal i think) top. Then I went overboard with olive sandals and argyle socks. Sometimes you have to go all crazy like :) And I went for it. Yes I did

skirt: vintage
top: Old navy
socks, sandals, cardigan: Target

Inspired by: Kendi Everyday

This week's inspiration was kind of last minute...okay I forgot about it until I was laying in bed, dead tired, around 1am. I was think about what to wear when I remembered it would be Thursday. I was so exhausted and my apartment is freezing so there was no way I was going out to my computer to get some inspiration. So I grabbed my lovely itouch and pulled up Kendi Everyday. I have really been liking her many 30 for 30 remix combinations. I knew I would find something. Sure enough I immediately zoned in on this polka dot blouse (remembering that I have a polka dot blouse myself). I liked the whole blouse, full skirt, tights, ankle boots combo. I scrolled further and saw how she layered it under this sweater. At this point I straight up passed out thinking, "I'll figure something out"

I never wear this blouse and was so excited to have some inspiration on how to wear it (thank you to the lovely Kendi). Actually, I love but never wear this skirt also. It's too big and I have to safety pin it but I love the material and the color.

That's all for now. Looking forward to next Thursday.
