Today is a rather special Sunday for Skinny Wallet Style, as I have the privilege to go out to brunch with some of the members of Philly Style Bloggers! I'll be getting to learn some tricks of the trade from seasoned veterans of the bloggosphere (as well as some fresh faces like myself) over delicious nosh. Therefore, I picked out an elegant yet playful look for the day!
Some days, dainty tiny floral prints just don't seem up to scratch. At times like that, break out some oversized blossoms like the ones on this top! This feels like the fabric pattern from the dress of a Southern belle attending a cocktail party or the Kentucky Derby to me. (Or a luau! It's just Big Kahuna enough to mesh with the tropical print craze.) Compliment the purple blooms with these velvety periwinkle skinnies.
Hologram has got to be one of the strangest material trends I've seen pop up lately (and this is the style world being influenced by Fifty Shades of Grey we're talking about). It's just so wacky and wonderful, I had to get in on it! Unfortunately, all the cool shoes I could find were roughly a zillion dollars, until the saving grace that is H&M handed me these tennies. So much love! But figuring out what to pair them with? Aye, there was the rub. I realized that the dominantly purple reflective colors would work well with my pants, and though, "why not?" Every outfit needs more shiny!
Even my earrings are photosynthesizing today! If you're scratching your head over why the star is sprouting greenery, it's actually a Paopu Fruit from the video game Kingdom Hearts. While you wouldn't be making fruit salad out of it anytime soon, it's said that two people who eat one together will have their destinies intertwined for all time. Beat that, strawberries!
