The style challenge I’m following is courtesy of personal stylist and entrepreneur mentor extraordinaire, Hilary Rushford of Dean Street Society. She’s adorable and super smart.
It’s odd to me that this project and the #yearofmaking project are having such a profound effect on me. Is it because I’m excited to try new things? To be flexible in how I spend my day and my time? Or because I know I want to focus on what I absolutely adore doing, which happens to be making stuff and dressing up. Yup. That’s it.
Today’s prompt is: “gorg in green.” I don’t have much green in my closet. In fact, I soon discovered I have one shirt (what I wore) and some cardigans in kelly green and olive. I could only imagine green in one shade today, and that’s the brightest damn green you can think of outside of neon. I felt like this was the best choice, especially on a totally crappy, rainy day like today. So, here we are:
Outfit: Coat, Tahari
Shirt, Portofino Shirt (they have a million awesome colors–I have several), Express
Jeans, Gap
Shoes, Steve Madden, old
Necklace: Anthropologie, old, similar
