Military & Feminine

 

This was a hard one to figure out. I knew that I wanted to wear an olive top, since that is typically found in army uniforms. However, I had to think hard what items of clothing I own qualify as feminine. Ah, a dress! So, granted this is more of a tunic. And, I'm giving bohemian vibes with the beads and brown bracelet. However, it's all good, haha!

This skirt is 100% silk and is perfect for the hot summer heat in an unconditioned classroom full of sweaty, stinky 12 year olds, lol!

30 for 30 Outfit #23--Orange and Olive

This outfit is so awesome! I saw this scarf out of the corner of my eye and I'm so glad I grabbed it. I like the fact that I'm combining a version of red and green that is not Christmas-y. Oh, and if you're wondering where my leopard item is, it's hiding underneath the scarf!

Day One of the Kendi's 30 for 30 Challenge. The objective? To mix and match 30 items of clothing for 30 days.

I've seen leopard prints and stripes paired together in countless places. I really like the combination with olive.

P.S. Anyone have a magic wand to wave the snow away?!
