today's inspiration is perfect for this odd minnesota weather. it can't seem to make up its mind. it's sunny and warm, then it rains and it's cool. however, we have been able to sit on the patio and watch the kids play on the swing set, and then sit on the patio (with a fire going), and share some great laughs with friends later in the evening. so i am not complaining. i do love that we can wear sundresses, and just carry around a cute coat just in case. so, without further adieu, here is today's inspiration.
the beautiful emma stone. have you guys seen easy a? it's super cute...i especially love stanley tucci and patricia clarkson as the parents. i want to be cool like them! anyways, this outfit is super cute and easy (pun intended) and versatile enough to wear anywhere.
and here are our interpretations.

ReplyDeleteI love girly dresses with a "tougher" leather jacket...however, too warm for me here in CT!

both lovely outfits. it's amazing what a leather jacket, awesome boots and a leather fringe bag can do to a dress. Are you two wearing the same boots? Thank you for hosting again!

ReplyDeleteUhm.. I'm not sure whether my last comment was posted or not, so I'll just say it again; The resemblance between my dress and yours is really shocking indeed :D I love the way you styled this one. Thanks for your comment on my blog!
ReplyDeleteLove,

Both of your dresses are so pretty. I really liked how the mustardy yellow one paired so nicely with the boots and the leather jacket.
ReplyDeleteI wish I wasn't sick so I could have participated.
