For the second day of my Style Chameleon Twin Challenge I was inspired by Rae and her Urban Warrior Mermaid persona. I've always felt a connection with Rae and her tough yet feminine UWP style. I love how she mixes the toughness of the UWP with the flowy organic feminine side, and the way she balances yin and yang with her girly tomboy looks. I just had to have the Michael Michael Kors agate print dress after seeing her wear it a couple of years ago. I also had the privilege of meeting her at the YLF OC swap meetup and she is just as warm, thoughtful and wonderful in person as she is on the forum!
For my challenge, I chose a tough/organic combination of tall lace up boots and tweedy asymmetric zip moto jacket over draped flowy water print dress, but lo and behold I found out she already did this combo in her original post two years ago (6)!

I guess it's completely fitting then that I chose this outfit combination because we really are twins! I have to admit I miss being long black hair twins with her too, but I do think her short 'do completely suits her.
She has also said she is inspired by nature, so I chose the dragonfly pendant and cuff. Finally, I chose the map bag because it is really special to me, since Rae gave it to me. I had always drooled over that bag every time she posted it, thinking that I wish I could find a bag like that. When she generously gave it away in the style exchange, I was lucky enough to be the first one to pounce, and I have been using it ever since! It reminds me of her every time I use it. Thanks so much Rae!
I also consider the dress my "Rae" dress because I think of her when I wear it. Rae and I have actually already done a twin day with this dress in the past--check out all the different toppers we tried. The orange blazer was the winner, with our stripey and dotty fraternal twin purses and our matching kitties!
