The Clash

Tribal print, polka dots, elephants and pom poms. I told you I'd deliver. Haha. >:D Don't get me wrong. On paper, this sounds horrible. Absolutely, positively horrible. On my body, though...it's cute, right?

Picture

....right? Riiiiiiight? :P Well, I really really like this one, so it's whatevs. Haha. Let me give you the deets! The colorful multi-pattern coat is one of my favorites, though, I don't get to wear it often due to matching difficulties. Hehe. I decided to not care too much about those difficulties, this time around. The bright yellow scarf paired nicely with the coat, I think. The colors are a bit off in some of the photos and I apologize for that. Perhaps there is a correlation between how nice the weather is and how much patience one has for adjusting camera settings. Heh. >_< The second photo above is true to color, IMO.

Picture

It was difficult to capture the print on the mint sweater due to the abundant sunlight. Where the hell has the sun been hiding all this time? o_O I was happy to see the bright light when I stepped outside, but it nevertheless created some photographing difficulties. So, again, my apologies!
You can see a much better and more true to color close-up below. Oh and I got the sweater from my clothing swap group!

Picture

Ahh, there we go. :D I know this is kind of messed up, but I really like this mix of colors and prints. Yes, it is in the realm of the unusual, but I like to think that about myself. I *am* pretty weird. Hehe. I don't think the mint and black is super offensive, though. It's just the crazy coat that brings the outfit to that next level of potential annoyance. I braved the cold to show you more of the sweater, below!

The super cute polka dot jumper is another item that I received from my clothing swap group. I really do love it, but it just doesn't fit me quite right. It's tight in the chest and the straps fall down, so I have to keep pulling them back up. An odd combination of issues, I know! So, you will most likely see this jumper up for grabs in my Storenvy shop, this Spring. I need to wait for warmer weather so I can take mannequin photos. Anyway, if you like the jumper, I'm happy to reserve it for you! Just contact me. ^_^

Oh Anna, everything looks perfect on your body! Did that sounded a little weird? :D Never mind!
I love your mixing of colors and patterns, especially here with the dots and this amazing multicolored coat! The big canvas bag in the first picture is priceless, why isn't it present in the other photos? Is it a grocery shopping bag? I must know!

:DDD <3 Oh, I think this is the third or fourth time I've showed off the canvas bag on my blog. It's basically whatever you want it to be. Haha. It's great as a grocery bag, but on this day I threw my laptop and some other coffee shop loiterer things in there. :P I really like using this bag in the winter, because it's something that looks cool and that I can put my scarf, gloves, hat, sweater, etc. into when I'm not using them. I didn't hold the bag for all of the photos, because it was kind of heavy. :P

You did a great job with matching the mismatched haha! I prefer not to match at all. Lol...my goal everyday is to not match. Being a stylist, I have to tell people, it's not what you wear but how you carry yourself in it. I love this outfit though.

That's rad! Doing mis-matched styles well is really hard and then doing those styles all the time (perfectly executed) is even harder. So, that's very cool! :D

The Queen of print clashing is back!! I am in love with your coat, not sure I could pull it off like you though. There's a clothing swap in London I try to go to sometimes. They're great, can find some fab items. We should do an overseas clothing swap!!

Bah! I just throw shit together and hope for the best. Really. Heh. I think I did OK, this time, but who knows. Oh, I would totally swap clothes with you, but I think the shipping alone could be a deterrent. >_< I sent a shirt to a girl from Brazil once and it cost me $12. A shirt. Haha. Sooo...yeah. It a possibility. I'd have to look into it. :P

Such color! Much pattern! Wow! ;)

I love the mint sweater juxtaposed with the pinks and maroons in the coat -- such perfect contrasting colors. And all the prints work very well together -- polka dots are always a wise choice, and the animal print helps make it cute. <3

love,

Yes! I love this! You are a pattern mixing genius. I love the coat so much, I never splurge on fun coats since I don't get to wear them much in PHX. Loooooove it!

Ha- it does sound a little weird described but it work, visually. I think the colors all seem, while very different, in the same color tone family. Plus, the bag is so irreverent and fun that the rest of the outfit seems witty. Can clothes be witty and playful? I guess they can if I say so... :p

You`re right it looks fantastic on your body and I really like this sweater, I`ve got kind of mint obsession at the moment in interiors, so this sweater got my my attention first! Oh and lucky you got snow on your pics, it`s all stormy and grey here..

There's a lot going on in this outfit but somehow it all works. I love your coat and all the textures going on in this look. Also, I actually like the mint and black together.
