I thought I would do something different and post my thought process behind picking an outfit for the day. So here is how I came up with the first one-
I usually pick one thing that I want to feature that day. Sometimes I build an entire outfit around a hair clip I feel like wearing.
This time it started with the pumpkin sweater. Obviously I'm trying to wear all my Halloween stuff while I can! After picking the sweater I grabbed this thick skirt because I thought the black and white would compliment the Halloween theme.Β
Some of you may have noticed that my outfits are usually pretty balanced in the colors I use.Β Color is a driving factor in what I pair with what. It's all about the colors!Β
I usually don't count black or white since they're more accents in my clothes.Β
I LOVE orange and purple together so the purple boots were an easy choice!
Then I needed purple up top as well, so I added the necklace and earrings for balance... I like my colors spread out.
Who else watched "Are you afraid of the Dark" on Nickelodeon as a kid? Love this pin!!!
Not wanting to stop at just 2 measly colors, I thought this hot pink skeleton clip would be absolutely perfect. And just so it's not up there by itself, and to tie it with the orange, I added an orange pumpkin clip along with it.Β
Well, now I want to bring the pink accents down as well so I pull out these oversized safety pin accessories in hot pink and orange, I think it balances it perfectly!
It did get chilly so I grabbed this adorable bat sweater in purple, and orange glasses to finish.Β
The 2nd outfit is another Beistle favorite shirt. I love the blue in use as a Halloween color here.Β Next I picked this corduroy skirt and black boots, keeping it pretty simple since the shirt has such a bold design.Β
The colors I settled on were blue and orange so I just added them in places I felt looked good. There is SO MUCH blue that I mostly balanced it with orange.Β
The boot socks are a cute touch, I think.Β
How do you all pick your pieces for the day?Β
Also, I'm considering posting a closet/wardrobe tour. I posted about it on my personal page, let me know what you think.Β
Have a wonderful Tuesday!! πππ
