goulash.

today, i'm giving you a break from the white blazer,
but for good reason.
read on....

just like the goulash i throw together for dinner sometimes...ground beef or turkey, peas, corn, onions, carrots, and cream of mushroom soup all in one pot, this outfit has all kinds of things thrown in the mix.
stripes. crochet. ribbon. beads. a flower.
this is straight off the hanger. sometimes, at one of our local stores, i'll find a set that comes with several pieces. this one consisted of a striped bodycon dress, a crochet tank, a necklace, and a flower pin. i wouldn't necessarily wear it out like this, but i love the pieces individually and can't wait to take it apart and re-work them into new outfits.

just wanted to give you a peek, because one of these pieces will make an appearance with the white blazer.

Ohhh my, I love the striped dress with the loose lace top overtop. Sooo perfect. And the fact that these pictures are dusk(?) photos I believe makes this soo good. Hot!

I love this whole look and how clever to compare the mixing of elements, colors, and textures to goulash!

Meri said...

Well, it might be "goulash" or as I call it, "hodgepodge," but it looks great! You have such fun style.

Cute set find. That flower pin color is very unique and can really pop with the right outfit.
The lace top is screaming possibilities!

Neekoh said...

Y'know, I''m digging the stripes with the crochet. It says, "I'm trendy, but I also know how to fish."

Kidding!!

You actually look super cute in this and I do hope you wear the two pieces together in the future. Nice find :)

XXo,
