Shirt: Ross
Skirt: Etsy from Kimberly of FabFinds (before I knew what a fab blog she runs!)
Shoes: Ross
Bag: Thrifted

This skirt is one of my favs, but I have a hard time working it into my wardrobe sometimes because it is SO crazy! I normally try to pair it with something neutral but on Friday night I decided to go ALL OUT and do mustard and teal. It actually worked out much better than I thought it would. This blog has really got me thinking about my personal style- namely how I need to work on defining it. I always envy those ladies that always look just like "themselves". What I mean is, their personal style is so succinct that everything thing they wear is something that you could only imagine them wearing and almost becomes a part of their personality. They are unique, stylish, put together, and always on. I am trying to better define my personal, and while I am mostly still floundering around in a sea of boldly colored clothing that doesn't say much about me, I think that THIS outfit is getting closer to what I would like my personal style to be. I'm not sure how I will define that yet, but I'm going to keep this photo as inspiration and work on achieving a look like this much more often.

Help me out here ladies (and gentlemen?)- how do you define your personal style? Can you do it in one or two words or a phrase? Or do you feel like you are still struggling to define it, much like I am?

  2. Love the skirt, it looks great styled this way.

    I don't really think I have a particular style. I like experimenting too much!

  3. I feel like you do, I would like to have a set personal style, but I have so many conflicting ideas. And I agree with mars, I can't decide what's "me". Sometimes I'll have a really great outfit, and change out of it before I leave because I feel self concious.
