Fedora: Forever 21 ($5)
Marbled Dress: H&M ($10)
Orange Skirt: Forever 21 ($16)
Flannel Shirt: Pacsun
Shoes: Wt. Mountain

I've been trying to experiment with mixing more prints and I decided to pair this marble print with the plaid from a flannel shirt. I think that the flannel shirt deserves an exception from the supposed faux pas of even tying anything around your waist. I do think that only looks bad when it's a bulky sweatshirt that doesn't match though. This shirt is lightweight enough and within the same color scheme as the top that they work together in my opinion. Scarves are another item I want to experiment with by tying around the waist; they give off a gypsy feel. I'd love to find one of those scarves that have the coin trim on them!

The funny thing is that I exiled these socks into the corner of my closet. They are actually old Nike crew socks that I kept for when I did track and field last year and thought I would never wear them again now that I'm not doing sports at school. But nonetheless, they found their way back into my closet and I think they add the right amount of white accents to compliment the white in the top. Lastly, I was so happy to see that my look from yesterday made it onto the homepage of Chictopia today too! :)

  2. Gorgeous marble print in your dress– I cringe so often when people tie bulky sweatshirts or puffy coats around their waists, but you're right that a lightweight shirt works well. Congrats on making the homepage of both sites and I hope you have a lovely weekend!
