Mixed up

(sweater: Zara/similar | chambray blouse: Lark + Wolff | necklace: c/o Stella + Dot | skirt: ASOS/similar | tights: GAP/similar | booties: H&M/similar | bag: Deux Lux)
If you ask my husband what he thinks of this skirt, he will very vocally tell you he hates it. Anything with a loud and obnoxious pattern usually gets a big thumbs down from him. I tend to dress for myself so he often loses when it comes to his style opinion. Of course if you ask any of my girlfriends they had nothing but love for the mix of print, color and texture. A little J. Crew inspiration via Pinterest goes a long way when it comes to layering.

Of course I wore this while I was visiting my parents over the holidays and needless to say, trotting around the mall like this definitely garnered a few stares. What? Someone has to add a little spice to Buffalo, right?

Glad to hear other men disgree with women's styles. I have so many outfits that I love that my fiance just looks at me with three heads and asks if that's what I'm wearing. Oh well! He'll get over it!

Leopard is classic and this look is fab!! Sometimes I'll like something and the fiancé will give it a big thumbs down too. I like to take his opinion into account, but of course, the final decision is mine.
I love so many things about this outfit, but that bag is a big winner and so is that sweater. I might have to snag the similar one.

My husband is the same way. Sometimes I let him win and wear something he likes just to be nice haha.
I love that pink lipstick!

I'm with your girlfriends, I love this look - you look great! And I love that you said that you dress for yourself. I have the same 'problem(?)' - my husband and I have very different taste so asking him what he thinks of my look can a little tough on the ego. Anyway, you rocked it!

Cristina - the lipstick is my all time fav, it's Sephora Brand in Love Test. Great to layer for a little punch or A LOT!
