Repeat Offender : Stripes, Bows, and a Purse I Didn't Know I Had

worn on December 14th, 2011

To see what this repeat offender thing is all about - read my first post.

To see the first time I wore this - go here.  

See that little purse there? Notice that I’ve been carrying it a lot lately? Well, it was actually one of those items that got left behind at my parents house when we moved out to Boston last year, but I rediscovered it when we were home for thanksgiving (yay!). At first, I thought I would sell it in my Smashion shop. But I’ve kind of become attached to it and can’t stop using it. So I don’t think this baby is going anywhere for awhile.

Repeat Offender : ... Kind Of

This is one of the outfits, that when I decided to start this series, I knew I wanted to wear again. But after searching, it seems that the old skirt is m.i.a. (oh no!). But thats ok. I switched it out for another full, floral skirt, and it works just as well!

Boo and I had a lot of fun with these photos last weekend. It was a perfectly lazy sunday, the weather was gorgeous, and there were leaves everywhere!

Repeat Offender : Leopard and Red

worn on November 4th, 2011

Ok, so heres the thing. The other day I was trying to figure out what to wear, and I started to go through some of my usual inspiration that I saved to pinterest. I still wasn’t feeling anything, so I turned to my archive of my own past outfits. It got me thinking - theres some past outfits in there that I really loved, so why have I only worn them once? I’m not going to pretend that I never where the same outfit twice. Because I deeeefinitely do, and I’m sure your do too. But as style bloggers, we rarely blog about it. Sure, we wanna keep it new and interesting. But I’m over it. If it worked once, it will work twice. 

So from now on, if I find myself not knowing what to wear, I am going to use myself as inspiration. I’m starting a new little series here - Repeat Offender. If it works, I’m going to blog about it….. again. 

So here it is - my first repeat. I first wore this outfit back in April. And I chose it as my first for this series, because I actually wear this combo all the time. Its a go-to for me. The red and leopard are classic, and you can never go wrong with that combination.
