Part of me said “Should I wear ruffles AND a scarf? Is that too much?” and “Can I pull off ankle boots with these pants even though I’m short?” Then another part of me said “Screw it,” “Do it for the thrill,” “YOLO,” etc. And that’s the story of how I left the house in this outfit. I really don’t consider myself all that daring when it comes to dressing, but by other people’s standards (I’ve learned), I’m basically the fashion equivalent a base jumper.

So what do you think – would you file this under “regular, everyday wear” or “not in a million years”?

Mustard yellow and burgundy: two of my favorite colors this time of year. Oh, who am I kidding? Two of my favorite colors any damn time. Plus, stripes and polka dots might be my favorite mixed print combo. Basically, there are a lot of favorite things happening in this outfit. If I had more spare time, I would write my own version of the songĀ “My Favorite Things.” I would be just like Julie Andrews, except with no musical talent whatsoever, and you’d be better off having a parrot take care of your children.
