I actually dreamed about this outfit (sad but true) and then tried it on and it worked. I had leopard print heels on but my husband informed me that polka dot tights with a striped dress and leopard heels was a bit much. I changed the shoes just because I felt paranoid after that comment but I secretly think it all worked.

It's Black and White

I know I don't have the fanciest photos but I sure will be glad when this rainy weather stops...it is seriously making it hard to get a good clear picture! 

 One of my favorite "go-to" outfits the past couple of month is stripes and polka dots but today is the first time I have gone with a straight black and white color scheme.

Parisian Chic...

I am feeling very "Parisian chic" in this outfit...like I should be strolling down a cobblestone street to a quaint, little cafe to enjoy a coffee and some type of puff pastry.

Instead, I am heading to work but a girl can dream.

Pattern Mixing

So...today over at Everybody, Everwear bloggers are showing their take on pattern mixing. I was excited because mixing and matching prints is something I normally admire from afar but I spent some time in my closet yesterday coming up with some cool combos and feeling more comfortable as I tried on different things.

I finally settled on my stripes and polka dots in a black/white color combo to wear to work today. I cannot wait to post more pattern mixing outfits in the future! Don't forget to check out how everybody else wore pattern mixing today, click here to check it out and get more fashion inspiration.
