Hallo marshmallow peeps!!! Welcome to another episode of Native Wear Arbeitskleidung--this time with a secret guest host! Rachylou is off walking her Lilypup, so I thought I'd sneak into her garage and take over her cable show while she's away! Schwing!!! I don't think she'll mind tho. Here we can discuss the latest Straßenmode for Bay Area Natives who are too hip to call themselves hipsters, live in Berkeley and work in the City, shop at Jeremy's instead of Anthro, and still dress and party like it's 1999.

Prairie never goes out of style--ditsy florals FTW! Too bad I lost my Blossom hat, but I do have a crochet beanie. Yes of course I'm wearing a puffer. It's FREEZING--only 50 degrees! I bet Rachy and Lilypup are wearing their puffers too. I think Rachy's the only Bay Area Native who has more puffers than I do!

My take on matchy clashy--repeat the colors and shapes to make it look not completely random. Mustard and teal and cognac/orange on the belt and purse and knit scarf. Cream flowers on the dress and purse to match the cream puffer (say ruffle puffer five times fast). Chevron necklace with chevron/herringbone tights and diamond shapes on the dress and the belt. A little worried it was TMGO for work, but I got plenty of compliments today, so I must be on the right track. Found this inspiration photo of Rachy with a similar plum print prairie dress (7)--I don't have a fabulous fur stole, but I do have faux fur trim on the puffer hood. What do you think--did I get Quirky Waif? Oh yeah--bonus Office Bathroom shot just like Rachy!

Speaking of quirky, let me show you my new apron--Totoro! For Christmas I got a Totoro pillow for the kids, but they were fighting over it so much I had to buy two more, one for each kid, but now DH and I want one too, so I am going to have to get a couple more so we can have five!

Uh oh, I hear the door rattling. That's all we have time for today. Thanks for watching this episode of Lil' Puffers on the Prairie. Until next time, it's Waif World, Waif World, Party Time, Excellent! Party on Fabbers!
