MON PETIT CHERIE

I'm tickled pink and beige and white and sparkle. Haven't worn these glittery tights in over a year! I figure they're better suited for a glam look, but a subtle palette could seriously use some metallic kick. Goes without saying that this look is inspired by doll clothes. Does anybody know if the American Girl Doll store still exists? Seems like the enterprise is 'past its prime,' but I'm in desperate need of clothes my size that are meant for toys. Also, really good suggestion for anyone afraid of dressing too "cutie pie feminine," listen to Bikini Kill while you wear an outfit like this as personal affirmation that you are subverting stereotypes affiliated with the color pink.

MYSTERE

I'm sure you've heard people talking about how they choose what to wear according to how they feel that day. Well, assuming that you dress yourself as soon as you wake up, there's not a huge range of emotions to pick from when evaluating your general mood. Nonetheless, I think this look would best suit me on a day when I woke up and felt quiet and shy. Sounds absolutely absurd to know how quiet and shy you are before you've even left the house, but I guess sometimes you hop out of bed and aren't really ready to face the world with your usual extroverted aggression. In real life, I think I'm very excited and opinionated and eager to 'do stuff,' but I go through phases where I want to drink hot chocolate and brood quietly in a corner while reading Megan Boyle's latest book. On those days, I'd probably wear a black turtleneck. But a lace peter pan collar dress and beret work, too.

I'm not wearing ANY jewelry in this look, which is extremely rare for me. But I think it works in this instance, because the collar almost acts as a necklace. Maybe the tiny chain on the belt can be a... bracelet or something? Or something.

FLOWER POWER

Same floral-printed, mint and rose hued outfit theme, NEW pants by Joe's Jeans! It took me a helluva time to select my favorite shade from the 55 colors offered, but I figured 'Evening Sand' would be the most practical choice. They're a peachy shade of pink that matches nearly every pastel garment I own. When I held them up to the light in my closet, I realized they were the perfect partner for my aqua Ralph Lauren sweater! A couple days later, my mom introduced the flowery Valentino bag to my collection and I nearly sobbed with how wonderful all my pastel pieces looked layered on top of each other. SO WHAT if I take getting dressed so seriously that I cry when things go eerily right...
