Hot and Cold

I find the weather bipolar these days. Sometimes it’s cold in the morning and later in the afternoon it’s warmer. It's like, get your shit straight Weather. So today, after checking the weather online, I decided that I had to come up with a plan: find outfits that work in both weather conditions. I went on urbanoutfitters.com and came up with this wonderful outfit (see image below). Of course, you can do it differently, but I tried to keep this “effortless” boho look with the loose cardigan, the ripped shorts, etc.. I love leggings and boots together and here they work with the shorts that aren’t too tight. You see, I find it a “fashion faux pas” to wear leggings with tight, (black) shorts. Trust me on this. Also, if you’re a fan of patterned tights like me and have some in the back of your closet, don’t be afraid to wear them! I go by the rule of “daring”. You don’t necessarily have to follow a trend, or do as everyone else does, just find what you like and don’t be afraid of what people might think! Have the guts to dress the way you feel like. I love to mix and match; I hate simple, solid outfits. I need patterns or motifs, that’s why I chose the khaki green print leather scarf to go with the messy cardigan. The bag is also great because of its warm color to tone down and to complete the rest of the outfit.

Anyway, this is perfect for the weather, at least the weather in Maryland. So it doesn’t really apply to the citizens of New York or Antarctica.

Hope it inspires you, and remember, be bold, be daring.

Love,
Lula.
