10 Below With A Chance Of Rainbows

1/30/2014

Damn. This makes the second pair of pants I've worn since Winter began. o_O O_o Until recently, it's been shorts, leggings and tights dominating. I...guess I should start wearing more pants, eh? Haha. :P

Oh and you may have noticed that my coat is a little bit....irregular. Haha. Don't worry, I did this on purpose. Well..OK, actually it was on accident at first. When I was getting ready to leave, I had skipped a button on my coat and I was like 'oh sh*t I'd better fix that.' When I looked in the mirror and saw the asymmetrical hem, though, I thought 'umm..you know that looks alright.' So, there you go. I expect to see everybody buttoning their coats incorrectly on purpose to make a statement. Haha. :P

I guess I just couldn't help myself. I added the socks and the awesome sweater (which you will see below) to help jazz things up, but I still felt like the outfit looked plain with the coat buttoned up. The asymmetrical hem added just a bit more chaos to the mix and made the outfit a little less boring.

Ask your doctor if magenta paired with mint and cobalt blue is right for you! ^_^ As far as unexpected color pairings go, I had as of yet to see sky blue and dark blue mixed in an outfit. I'm sure this is symptomatic of the fact that I don't read any fashion magazines and I probably don't follow enough style blogs. I have no doubt that this has been done before, but I just haven't seen it lately and I definitely haven't seen hot pink thrown into the mix. So, here you go! Haha. I love these colors together! <3

Sorry about the specks of white in the photos. That's just snow getting blown in my face. >_< Haha. That's about it! You've seen the coat here, sweater here and yellow satchel here, among other posts.

Take it easy and have a great rest of the week! 楽しんでね！ ^_^

(P.S. - It wasn't actually -10°F! I just wanted a snazzy title! Hehe)

OMG I love your colorful outfit and let me tell you had an awesome idea letting the coat look irregular haha :D Weren't you cold? :)) I can't wait for warmer weather so I could wear something similar without freezing to death :)) This outfit is totally me, love it :*

There is nothing wrong with adding some colours to an otherwise grey winter day. I really like your irregular buttoning :)))

Haha, the asymmetrical buttoning of the coat is genius! :D It looks rather aweeesoomee!
Actually, I've never seen sky blue and dark blue mix together too. And I read fashion magazines only when my sister buys them, so maybe that's the problem :D As for the bold magenta, what can I say, this is my favorite part of the whole look ^_^

Hey, Jessi! ^___^ Oh, me too. Haha. I mean, it was still really cold, but I know that it could have been a lot worse. So I tried not to complain too much. Hehe.

I am so impressed by this colour combination. It is the best ever. It makes me want to wear pink, yellow and blue right this moment! The way you mix colours is fantastic.

Anna

I totally know that jittery feeling you get after seeing a really cool outfit. All I can think about when that happens is running to my closet, throwing everything out on my bed and experimenting. ^_^ I'm so happy to have inspired you! <3 <3 <3
