{Outfit Inspiration} Spots & Stripes

Just when we thought Spring (and bare legs) were here to stay, Mother Nature threw us a curve ball and brought freezing temps again last week. But before I could even post this outfit, we were back to 80-degrees....so hopefully this is the last we'll see of tights for awhile. I love this combo of spots and stripes, and fortunately this outfit works with, or without, the tights.

I love tops with feminine accents, like this one with ruching at the shoulders, and delicate pearl buttons on the cuff. Would you have guessed Target?! It came with ties at the collar, but I snipped them off.

 

If you combine patterns like these, make sure the scales are opposite...like small dots with wide stripes.

Want to see what these "photoshoots" really look like?

An impatient 11-year-old photographer, and a camera-loving photo bomber! I'm lucky if I get three usable outfit pictures. But it's always fun to see what he captures.

Is it still tights-weather where you are?
