Summer came back for one last fling this week here in Indy. Much like summer, print mixing won’t go away. (I was trying for a clever segway there but I’m not sure it really worked out.) Anyway, I tried a new print mixing combination today! Birds and polka dots. At least I think they’re birds. They could just be non-descript flecks, but it’s kind of like looking for shapes in the clouds. Maybe you see Abe Lincoln or a ballerina, but if you do…you should probably get your eyes checked. Cuz they’re birds.

P.S. Feel free to compliment me on my new necklace, which is super cute. P.P.S. Don’t forget you can follow me on Bloglovin’, which would be super for you.

20121015-201628.jpgStop acting like you’re surprised. You know I can only go so long without mixing more prints. Now that my vacation week is over, it’s back to Indiana and back to fall layering (hey, I’ve gotta look on the bright side). I wore this gingham shirt last week in Florida (see here), but now it’s taken on a whole new character! It’s perfect how it appears to be peeking out from under these polka dots (read that sentence aloud and raise your hand if you love alliteration).

Just a heads up: I have a feeling this recipe of button-up under a cute sweatshirt or sweater will make many appearances this fall and winter. So you better like it. Otherwise get out now…while you still can.
