Floral Week - Scarf

 

Floral Week is an excellent excuse to re-introduce some of my items that have been neglected over the summer - like this pretty scarf.  I should confess that I actually bought this scarf intending it to be a gift, and then I realized that the recipient probably wouldn't like it.  She never wears scarves, and I had no idea if she liked orange and/or purple.  Since it's from F21, I couldn't just return it, so I kept it.  And I think it's gorgeous, so I think that's okay.  And I bought my friend a way better present that I think she appreciated much more.

Green Week - Polka Dot Cardigan

Get excited!  It's St. Patrick's Day and the first day of GREEN WEEK!  My husband pointed out that I'm not Catholic, so I should really be wearing orange, but green is prettier, and I don't know that I have 5 orange things to wear, so here we are.

This outfit wasn't originally supposed to include green.  My plan was to style my new gray/black dress like this outfit (one of my favorite's from Franish recently).  I was going to wear my black cardigan and boots.  Then I realized I don't really have a similar scarf, and it's close enough to spring that I decided to bust out the floral.  Then I couldn't find my black cardigan, and thought the green in the scarf would go well with my green polka dot cardigan.  Then I checked the weather and realized it wasn't going to be snowy or super freezing, so I went with wedges instead of boots.  So the actual outfit isn't really anything like the inspiration, but that's how it goes sometimes!  Maybe I'll get a chunky knit scarf and try copying Fran again in the fall.
