Here is the third outfit of the day! And after this post, i have a huge surprise :o most of you know though, and if you go look at my instagram (annaspickingflowers) you'll see it!
But anyway, here's da outfit!
I went totally out of my comfort zone with this outfit. Lately, I've been stuck to NO COLOR and comfy clothes. But for this, I guess i decided to do something different than my usual.
The top is from Kohl's, and is white with pink flowers and a cow skull with flowers on the horns. I saw it, (it was only $2 on clearance) and thought IT WAS SO COOL. Whenever i wear it, i just wear it with leggings or black jeans. But I don't know what got into me thinking i could pair it with a black floral skirt. It worked for me though.
So the skirt is from Charlotte Russe and I literally bought it 4 and a half years ago. SPOILER ALERT: it's okay to keep old clothes if they still fit, some styles come back, while others never fade. just make sure you're not hoarding! That's my problem. I loved this skirt since i bought it. It's very girly, but paired up with ripped tights and combat boots bring an edge to it.
Combining two different patterns is fun, but you do have to be careful with it. The two patterns should have a common color (like mine was a light green). When combining, make sure you don't look like a clown (unless that's the look you're going for) and if you don't think it looks right, it probably REALLY doesn't look right to other people. Just be careful, and have fun!
The tights i have on are just from a drugstore, and all i did was rip, rip, rip! be careful when ripping tights. Once they are ripped, they keep stretching and ripping, so make sure that all the holes are spread out and not in revealing places haha.
The necklace i'm wearing, (you can see it better in the top picture) is from Charlotte as well, but off the clearance rack. I got this gigantic chunky awesome necklace for $5!
And the boots, MY FAVORITE. The boots are from Kohl's as well, and are Mudd. I GOT THESE BOOTS FOR $15. Originally, they were $79.99!!
GIRLS AND GUYS: LOOK ON CLEARENCE AND SALE RACKS! Especially in the middle of a season. You will find things that you can still wear in this season, because halfway through, they start putting out the next season's clothes. All these stores already have back to school signs out. THAT MEANS RUN TO CLEARANCE BECAUSE IT IS STILL FILLED WITH SUMMER CLOTHES THAT YOU HAVE 2 MONTHS TO STILL WEAR.
Kohl's is seriously great. Even if you're not a huge fan, go in there and just look through the clearance. You WILL find at least one thing that is dirt cheap that you like.
I am telling you, i've been saving up for doc martens, but i saw these black boots that looked almost identical, and flipped out. $15 dollars for a pair of boots?! JUMP AT THAT OPPORTUNITY. Saving money is always a good thing. Especially when you're a broke college student like me.
Hope you guys enjoyed this mini outfit series, I'll see you soon!
Thanks for reading, i LOVE U!!!
