A Slice Of Cantaloupe (Barely There Challenge!) - Part 8/9

6/24/2014

This is something simple and carefree that I put together for brunch. Hopefully, this will be a relatable outfit for most people since I imagine many of you will have these garments in similar colors. If you've never thought of combining mint, yellow and orange together, then this should be an easy outfit to recreate or to use as a foundation for a better reinterpretation. I really like this mix of colors. ^_^

Picture

The mint polka dot top is one of my favorites. I really should wear it more often than I have been. It's perfect for Summer! I wasn't sure about adding the floral necklace since it is a rather eye-catching statement piece. I received it as an XMAS gift many years ago and I cherish it. So much so that I've worn in only a few times and the rest of the time it is kept in a velvet lined box. The details are stunning! I just hope that the necklace doesn't overpower the whole outfit, as it tends to glow when the sun hits it.

Picture

This outfit may not seem like a big deal, but it is for me. I'm terrible at wearing bright colors. It's something I really have to put my mind to, so I'm happy that I decided to wear this combination of hues.

Also, while this outfit may be super simple (and therefore, not something I would normally share on my blog), it still manages to be interesting and, best of all, it satisfies my minimalist style challenge. So, I am really happy with how everything turned out. ^_^
I did get a lot of compliments and smiles the day I wore this, so I must have done something right in that respect, too, yeah? Hehe. Hope you like it! <3

I love mixing colors myself. I've done it with purple and teal before. It's nice to see you in something bright and it works well on you :)

I LOVE that polkadot top! The whole outfit is so breezy and refreshing. You really do look great in these colours.

Bravo for managing to make a simple ensemble look rather complex due to the mixture of colours and accessories.

I always feel so awkward in brights, because I feel like I'm saying 'hey, everyone! stop what you're doing and look at me!' Haha. I really love earth tones, but I try my best not to fall back on those too often. <3

I love all of the bright colors in this outfit! And the skirt is absolutely a-m-a-z-i-n-g! I'm really getting into longer length skirts this season, and this one is amazing (:

I am in love with that skirt. I actually don't own very much yellow. I can only think of one thing, but its such a fun bright color I should ry harder to find items for my wardrobe

Thanks so much! Yeah, me neither. I have a yellow skirt, a yellow dress and maybe two yellow tops and that's about it. I'm always trying to find ways to add more color to my wardrobe. <333

I LOVE this because, as you know, I love bright colours. I'm definitely going to try the mint/yellow combo when we head into summer (only 6 months away.... :P).

The necklace too is fabulous! And look at those shoes (I'm dying to see what they look like from the side).

Way to go for getting out of your comfort zone. :D
