Fall Fashion Week - What I'm Wearing (Day 6)

Today is the 6th day of the FALL FASHION CHALLENGE hosted by Bramblewood Fashion.



Today the challenge is: Pick one of these fall trends and wear it!

I'm wearing a combo of the 70's and Western trends.





Pictures are a little wonky today...the fading on the jeans makes me look a bit bowlegged!! Ah well, all in keeping with the "Western" Theme... :D

Fall Fashion Challenge - What I'm Wearing (Day 4)


Today is the fourth day of the FALL FASHION CHALLENGE hosted by Bramblewood Fashion.


Today the challenge  is to dress like your favorite era!


My outfit is somewhere between the 1940's, 50's, and 60's. the skirt style is more 60's, as well as my hair, but I was leaning toward the 40's as my favorite clothing era. Also, I'm not wearing any nylons (pantyhose) so that is closer to the 1940's since many women had to go barelegged in the early 40's because of war restrictions!
But anyway. I love all three of those eras, and so my outfit is a combo of all of them.
(The first one the wind was blowing my hair, hence the funny look on my face!)




Skirt (Kohl's), Sweater (Borrowed from Mom), Brown Shirt (Kohl's), Pumps (Kohl's), Necklace (Vintage - belonged to my Great Grandma!), Earrings (Borrowed from Mom), Gloves (Vintage- belonged to my Great Grandma), Makeup (From Everyday Minerals, Claire's, and Clinique)

I'm pretty excited I got to incorporate vintage things that belonged to my great grandmother into the outfit. I don't know for sure what era the gloves are from, but I think the necklace is from the 40's or 50's maybe. She was born in 1915, and lived till July 2000.

Fall Fashion Challenge - What I'm Wearing (Day 3)


Today is the third day of the FALL FASHION CHALLENGE hosted by Bramblewood Fashion.





Today the challenge is to wear bold colored/patterned/styled tights.
I'm wearing these bright turquoise tights from We Love Colors! (Just so you know, SOME of the pictures on the We Love Colors website are a bit inappropriate, insofar as the way they have their models wear the tights for the photographs)

Fall Fashion Challenge - What I'm Wearing (Day 2)


Today is the second day of the FALL FASHION CHALLENGE hosted by Bramblewood Fashion.




Today the challenge is to wear two colors that are not normally combined.
I didn't quite pull this off...this is actually the 2nd outfit I've worn today because I had to run off to a doctor's appointment early this morning so I didn't have time to do anything fancy with my clothes!
Anyway, the "different" colors are brown, blue, and yellow:








The pictures aren't the greatest today either...it was dark by the time we got home from our other running around this afternoon so I had to do the old mirror-picture trick! :)

Jacket (thrift store), Owl shirt (thrift store), Brown shirt (Kohl's), Denim skirt (Christopher & Banks), Tights (Maggie's), Boots (Shoe Carnival/Brand: Wanted), Necklace (Gift).

Fall Fashion Challenge ~ What I'm Wearing (Day 1)

Today is the first day of the FALL FASHION CHALLENGE hosted by Bramblewood Fashion.


The rest of the days of the week have a challenge, but today, Sunday, does not. So this is what I am wearing:




I have to be careful about what I wear to church because I have to be up front playing guitar. So not only extra modesty since I'll be in front of everyone, but it can't be something that has to be adjusted constantly or pulled down or a flowy shirt that might get pulled off the shoulder by the guitar strap.
