I wore this to work a couple days before Thanksgiving, and someone at my office said I looked like a pilgrim. Which is funny, because I thought this dress-boot combo felt very 60s go-go dancer. I’m not so sure the Puritans would approve of me mixing their look with a go-go dancer, but luckily they’re all dead so they can’t complain.

If you’re a go-go dancer that has a complaint about me mixing your look with a pilgrim, well, my email is under the Contact tab…

Looking back at this outfit, it wasn’t my best work. I decided to remix the skirt into something more casual for school, and I was inspired by a look I pinned recently. But in the inspiration version, the skirt is shorter and not flared so I think it balances out the bulky sweater better. In my version, I think the full skirt and chunky knit are a little overwhelming on my frame. Oh well, you win some, you lose some.

A pro blogger would probably just skip out on posting these photos, but I made a commitment to this Take One, Pass it On challenge, and I’m going to stick to it! The silver lining: my new pink bag is freaking adorable and makes up for everything. So this is actually the best outfit ever.
