I wore this yesterday to go to a bridal shower. Typical summer Sunday activity, right? Except that this one took place at what I can only describe as a 1970s Gatsby mansion. I had no idea a place like this existed in Indianapolis, but it does. There are columns all over the place, a pool in the back, crazy awesome art and antiques everywhere, and lots of chairs that leave you wondering whether you’re actually supposed to sit in them or not. The people who own the house are named Fortune because of course they are. I don’t know how to fully describe this place, but you can see a few photos in my Instagram feed.

Anyway, after a lot of oohing and ahhing, I had to go back to the real world. Conveniently, the Gatsby home was close to the 100 Acres Art & Nature Park (which I recommend if you’re in the Indy area), so we walked off the bellinis there and snapped these photos. I felt like I looked pretty cute, but it’s hard not to feel a little inadequate when you wear a $20 dress to a zillion dollar home.

There are lots of ways I approach putting together an outfit, and sometimes I just pick a chunk of the rainbow – in this case the yellow, green, blue chunk. It’s one of the best chunks, I’d say. Well, red and orange are pretty great too. And you can’t argue with blue, indigo, and violet. Basically, rainbows are the biz-nass. You can’t go wrong.

I’m trying to get in the habit of putting together a little collage at the end of my posts showing how I’ve remixed what I’m wearing. After all, in real life, people don’t buy things to just wear them one time. Still, you can always find new ways to wear things so you don’t feel like you’re repeating. So…Scroll down to see how else I’ve worn these pieces!
