Friday's Fancies #4: Outfit Inspiration



   I don't need to keep introducing Friday's Fancies, do I? No? Good. Glad y'all got the hang of things. This week {AV} gave us the theme "outfit inspiration" - and encouraged us to find an outfit we loved off of Pinterest and create an outfit from it. Now, I didn't go too crazy out of the box this week with the inspiration- but rather used the same colors from my inspiration piece and mixed them all around!

Here's what I came up with:
This outfit was one of the first I pinned on Pinterest, and still love it. Perfectly effortless, feminine but not overly girly.
1. I grabbed the mint green from the skirt and brought it up top with this Zac Posen bow blouse-light, airy, and lovely.
2. The dark grey from the original made its way to some Wendy Mink teardrop earrings- better than a necklace to clutter up the statement bow.
3. The subtle original gold clutch transformed into some gold Marc Jacobs accent bracelets. Man, I could handle wearing those babies with any outfit.
4. The yellow pop in the necklace is now in the form of a simple yellow clutch. I have to say, the popular yellow + grey combo is even better with the mint green!
5. Miss Thing in the picture isn't showing off her shoes, but you can't go wrong with these camel Louboutin pumps.

So what do you think about adding mint green to the usual grey+yellow mix? Yay or nay?

Now, don't forget to head over to {long distance loving} for more inspiring outfits!
