When I saw Rae's thread about her Shadow Persona (http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....he-grocery) I had to post my WIW because we are unintentional twins today--both in sweaters, plaid skirts and boots! Waving to my sister schoolgirl twin!

On the way to work I was listening to an 80's mix CD I had made and one of the songs was Simple Minds' Don't You Forget about Me...so I thought I'd call this Pretty in pink (& plum) as a John Hughes reference! I love the 80's--that was the last time I remember being totally interested in fashion and music. So my schoolgirl look today reminds me of my schoolgirl days. Back then I was more into the Madonna look with floral blazers and lace hair bows and fingerless lace gloves and knotted pearls and piles of bangles and jelly shoes!

Question for you...which handbag do you like better with this outfit? Do you like the patent burgundy clutch which is matchy matchy with the patent burgundy boots, or do you like the print mixing with the plaid skirt and floral bag? And does this correspond with whether you more of a mixer or matcher yourself? I went with the clutch today but brought the floral bag as well to hold the rest of my stuff. Didn't carry them at the same time though, LOL.

Yay=matchy matchy with the burgundy clutch
Nay=print mixing with the floral satchel
