So creative Claire! And, while the print may not be on trend, the overall effect is really working, and will fit in your wardrobe quite easily. An outfit is always more than the sum of it's parts -- and your styling work great.

The skills you spent some much time acquiring will come in handy again, and you'll be glad you invested time to learn them!

Claire - it alway comes down to time or money! We only have one or the other at any given point.

So, just don't even think about your time -- as long as y ou had fun doing it!

Can I hire you to come and work your sorcery for me??? Seriously, I don't have the imagination to see the "possibilities of a piece, or the the skill to translate the vision...assuming I had a vision....What I am trying to say is it looks lovely!

I think it totally works! I love that you chose to pair it with a white skirt - that would not have occurred to me, but it looks quite modern and beautiful.
