Haven't posted WIWs in a while...this one is actually from last month and was partly inspired by Angie's linked ensemble post. But with today's discussion of orange or purple, even though I am very much Team Orange, I am with Angie in her comment re: enjoying them together, and that reminded me of this outfit. Oddly enough I didn't take a pic of the orange and purple items actually together!

(Oh, and there's my orange phone case. But of course!)

I suppose this outfit might qualify as sort of maximal, an aesthetic I've learned to enjoy more than I used to. The components are my typical blend of older and newer...the wine hat I knitted a few years ago, the orange paisley wrap thrifted also a few years ago. The purple Kenneth Cole puffer is about 10 years old. The colorblock sweater is a wildcard Coldwater Creek item from 2013 (it's deep pink and burgundy with odd neon red sleeves), the jeans are the split-hem Wit & Wisdoms from NAS this year, the red boots are Fluevogs from 2015.

This post is also a way of reminding myself that I want to be firmly on Team Wear What I Have rather than add more in 2018.
