Over on Pinterest I like to pin images of outfits that give me ideas on styling and new ways to outfit. Here is a recent example:
My outfit matches up quite well to the inspiration look, eh? But, it's not about going for an exact match, it's more so about breaking down these elements and mixing them up. For instance, any colorful or patterned cropped trouser works here. Switch out the navy blazer for charcoal or black one. The top could be a tee-shirt or silky tank, while the booties could be loafers. That's the point of inspiration, it's about getting a jumping off point and seeing what happens. FYI, these pics were taken underneath the railroad over pass on 22nd in South Side. And you thought I was in some sort of botanical garden, right? Follow me on Pinterest here for my board "Outfit Ideas."

The basic elements of this outfit are: 1) Dark/Navy Blazer 2)Striped Button-Down 3) Cropped Colorful/Embellished Trousers 4) Chunky Bootie. And here's make take from earlier this week:
 |
| Making a weird face like I'm a Player! |
 |
| Switching it up from the theme two weeks ago here and here, wearing the necklace underneath the collar. |
 |
| Unintentionally matching my nail color to my cropped trousers. |
