What I Wore: No complaints

It is Wednesday!
I am linking up to The Pleated Poppy!
I LOVE seeing everyone's outfits! They are real and unique! 
I have never seen so many crafty and creative people!

I am also linking up to a NEW blog, That Kind of Mom.
I read her post through The Pleated Poppy's WIWW and started bawling. I want her to know that she is not alone, that it is OK and acceptable to HAVE self esteem and feel beautiful at any size and that we ALL struggle. I am motivated and hope that if you read my blog because I am a real girl, with a love for fashion and a true sense of self style that you will stop by this blog and show support!
Thank you!
 
Soooo...yesterday I was complaining that I find it hard to wear new and innovative outfits when I am hot and want to wear as little as possible. THEN I go and put on a shirt and shorts and find one of my most favorite combos ever. I am so in love with this outfit. It is simple, cool and I LOVE mixing prints. I need to stop complaining and jump into my closet to try new things. 

This shirt is the Stylemint 'Fillmore'. I went back and forth on joining BUT I loved the shirt and the looseness. I watched all of the videos of the making of the shirts, loved the inspiration and seeing pics on the Facebook page. I am not disappointed. We will see what they release in the next couple of months and I will get back to you. I paired the shirt with my favorite shorts. Pairing the stripes with a skinny red belt and leopard shoes really made the outfit pop. 

No Complaints
(please ignore the hideous floral curtains. I moved into my Grandma's place when she moved to her assisted living home and there is A LOT of remodeling and decorating to do! We are ordering blinds SOON!)





 What I Wore:
Top: Stylemint 'Fillmore'
Shorts: Mossimo from Target
Shoes: Steve Madden 'Wiicked'
Belt: Michael Kors

  1. Completely agree without about not wanting to find new cute things to wear with the heat. But you did a great job! I love the stripes with the leopard. I think our blogs are matching this week & I have more leopard to come! :)

  8. I'm a sucker for stripes and the animal print heel with it is GENIUS. (: Also, I see that great skinny belt peeking out from under the shirt. Looking fabulous even in the heat (which has not made it out here to Oregon).
