Flowers and Stripes

 
 Cardigan, tank tops and belt: Old Navy
Skirt: American Eagle
Necklace: Forever 21 

Last month I posted Forever 21's nautical look book and I finally took the plunge (no pun intended :P) and combined florals with stripes. I've had this tank top and skirt sitting in my closet for awhile. I need to shop my closet more so I can unearth more outfits. 

It was really warm today. But everything looked so green from the rain we had for the last few weeks. 

Also blossoms have started appearing on one of our Peach trees and it looks so pretty. Can't wait for spring. 

 

Also if you're wondering how I put the effects on my pictures, I used the site Picnik.com. I'm not that great at Photoshop, so this site is great to use. There's a bunch of different effects and styles to use. For these pictures I used the 1960's and vignette effects.

oh! I just finished writing tomorrow's post which is about mixing patterns so your little outfit is perfect timing for what I was just thinking!

You look so great!

I need to start mixing patterns more often! You pulled it off really nicely!

I absolutely love the way you mixed prints - and the idea of wrapping a belt around your cardigan is fabulous. Adoring this look!! :)

I agree with these other gals! The look worked out great!

Also, THANK YOU FOR THE SUGGESTION! I've been trying to find a place to edit the photos to get that pin hole camera effect but haven't been able to find anything. THANKS!!! :-)
