EBEW: Mixed Patterns!

I'm a day early, but I'll be linking this post up with EBEW tomorrow for their Mixed Patterns challenge! I can't say I've ever mixed any patterns, but I felt great in this outfit all day! I would have to say that this challenge has opened my eyes to this mixing thing, and maybe I'll be doing it more often ;)




Shirt from Old Navy; Skirt from Dynamite; Sandals from F21; Belt from Costa Blanca

At first I had a different idea for mixing patterns, but the weather was wayyy too hot to wear the outfit I had intended. I guess I'll have to save it for a cooler, fall day. Instead, this wonderfully breezy shirt came to the rescue :) I've been missing my button-up shirts in this heat wave!

Like the wood pile? I was back at my parent's place this weekend. I love being there, it's so relaxing and such a nice change of pace from the city. I can actually sleep with my window open and there aren't any cars driving past! It's incredible how many little things I realize that I miss when I'm away from home...

    I'm so jealous of your province and the heat, the Maritimes are just down right dreary!

  6. So freaking cute--both tailored and relaxed, which is a hard combo. Love the little braided belt, too! So glad I found you through EBEW--stop by and say hi on my side if you have a sec!

  7. I like this! It's not complicated and you kept it to a minimum so it perfectly works well!
