Over a year ago, Angie posted this maximal look and my preppy gene lit right up and hasn't stopped glowing. Kind of like Rudolph's nose . ;)
I vowed I'd try my own version one day and today might be the day (I'm waiting on the weather for a final decision.)
Alas, I don't have the model's dramatic dark looks, and JAileen will be sad to know that I don't have a Scottie sweater, but I do have some of the elements of her outfit and I've tried my own versions below.
1. Inspiration photo.
2-4. -- -- First version. In lieu of the Scottie sweater, I have a sentimental Siamese print silk shirt in honour of my kitty. :) In lieu of dark sequins, I have rhinestones and a pearlescent jacket. (I did not get involved in hosiery for my try on session, so heaven only knows what I'll do about that).
5-6 -- Second version Going with the cream sweater (as in the inspo) and a red coat.
7-9 -- Third and fourth versions. Dark sweater to take the place of her dark jacket. But with different jackets.
10-11 -- Fifth version. Subtracting the kitties, adding another plaid (the shirt).
12-14 -- Sixth version. Dark with plaid. And light jacket.
So. There you have it! I am not sure which version I like best, but I could wear any of them and it was such fun to try this out after waiting so long!
Thanks for looking and you can vote if you like!
