Look Hot Stay Cool Part Three

 

So it's September 19th  and the temperature here still hits over 30°C daily, so in my ongoing quest too look my best and feel my best, I've devised a plan to keep me cool as the sun continues to cook us in the Mediterranean . This post is the third and final installment of Look Hot Stay Cool. I am using probably one of the most comfortable lightweight casual tank tops out there, to create looks that will keep me cool and fashionable!

The above look is certainly not for everyone but it's a fun bright look that I most certainly love! This ensemble is a head turner due to the volume of high voltage pink. When I feel like I need  attention I will be wearing this outfit!

An ultra casual tank top can be transformed to look sophisticated with the right accessories. This outfit would be great for a night out on the town with the girls!

I would like to make a special mention to a very special friend, who actually owns this gorgeous PRINCE vintage tennis skirt. Her name is Sarah and she has an awesome blog that you should definately check out!  Her pictures are beautiful and inspiring! Find Sarah's Blog here: You Made Me Smile   About ten years ago when Sarah and I and  our closets lived much closer together, I like a younger sister would help myself to Sarah's clothing, and this is one peice that never made it back to Sarah's Closet! Sorry Sarah you can totally have your skirt back! This skirt is something special, I have been wearing it for 10 years and it's still in the same condition that Sarah found it in, at Value Village, PERFECT!  Check out those cute vintage  buttons!!! This skirt is excellent when I am in the mood to look sporty which is great for a casual weekend afternoon! This look is definitely cute, girly, fun and energetic totally me! I paired it with hoop earrings and some neutral gladiator sandals to keep the look simple yet complete, making this the Ultimate Look Hot Stay Cool Outfit!

-Until Next Time: Stay Comfortable, Stay Cool, Stay YOU!

Shorts Almost as Wild as my Personality

   My adventure through my closet has been a continuous learning experience. Not only have I realized the massive potential of my wardrobe, I have have learned how easy it really is to make something old new again. This valuable lesson has fulfilled my appetite for fresh fashion without costing me a penny. In these times we all should be a little more thriftier! With all the many lessons I've learned through mixing matching nothing can compare to the challenge of matching these Amazing Marciano shorts I picked up about SEVEN years ago. To me these Bermuda shorts are so exquisitely beautiful I think they should be in a museum somewhere. . . . . . .The shorts like myself are loud, outgoing, fun, bright, unique, and a little bit crazy! These shorts are almost as diverse as my personality, complete with shiny blinged out pocket flaps!  Seriously HHHHOOOOWWW could I resist them?? PS. they were mega on sale at a Marciano Outlet. It was like a message from the    angels. . . 


"YOU MUST BUY THEM"

   In my seven years of ownership they have remained in pristine condition and amazingly some how I'm the same size as I was when I was 21. YAY! That's a confidence booster! So it's quite obvious why they've lasted this long, I've hardly worn them, mostly because when it comes time to coordinate an outfit the only colour I end up putting with them is black, almost most other colours look garish when beside the shorts.

When pairing the shorts with a black shirt it often looked way too plain against the kaleidoscopic shorts, so by choosing a black shirt with details and adding matching accessories it helps move the eyes up from the shorts, so they are not the only thing you see. The overall look is tastefully wild and elegantly fun, with out being over the top.   

This sort of planning is needed if I want to have a harmonizing outfit. In a rush to get ready I would never be able to calmly plan a coordinating outfit with these shorts and that's why I have pre-planned to ensure that when I do decide to wear my outrageous bermudas I will be confident that the outfit works well.

 

These attention seeking shorts are no doubt too much for many        but......

       WOULD YOU WEAR THESE WONDERFULLY PSYCHEDELIC SHORTS?????????????
