Two for One


Two for One

While trying to style this look I was slapped right in the face (imagine my jacket slapping me like the taco in the commercial!) with the simple fact that just by changing one accessory you can change the whole outfit.  
I guess I knew that, but honestly didn’t realize the total change until I posted the pictures.
So that’s where my title comes from………..Two totally different looks for the price of one.
I didn’t have a vest so I styled a shawl into a “no vest”.


I think I’m pretty much a hippie at heart.  I love flowing blouses and skirts.  I don’t think the look is age related.  Attitude maybe.  But age, no way.
Oh, I almost forgot, I finally started playing around with Polyvore.  So also check out my first set.
I’m also two for one linking today.
Two birds http://twobirdsboutique.blogspot.com/  and Not Dead yet Style http://notdeadyetstyle.blogspot.com/ .
So get some bang out of your blog surfing today and come over and check everybody out.

  2. that peach color is incredible on you! i like how both the blue and cream go with your peach outfit. i think i like the second one the best because the belt looks more natural to me in that one, i don't know why though

    it's so bright and cheery i'm smiling!

  3. You and I must have been channelling the 60's today! I read your post after I posted mine and it even looks like we like the same colors! I love your outfit. It looks much dressier with the shawl.

  5. Wow...I had to scroll back and do a double take! It's amazing the difference...it looks like two completely different outfits. And I'm with you on the 70's kind of bohemian look...I love it, too. I like both these outfits on you and that shawl is lovely. Debbie http://thriftygirlvintage.com
