50 Shades Of Grey

Another blogger posted an outfit that she felt didn't hit the mark.  She bravely asked for comments on what exactly went wrong.  This is always touchy.  Fashion blogging is a forum to express yourself and pretty much expect positive reinforcement for your choices.  You know, if you don't have something nice to say..........
Here is a C/P of my comment to this lovely lady.
Someone one commented (not to kindly) that my black shoes cut off my legs. I was't happy about the comment but alas, she was right and now I rarely wear dark shoes without matching tights..
I think maybe the same thing is happening with your skirt. Not sure but maybe it's kind of cutting you in half. But, what the heck do I know I make mistakes daily and rely on OTD photos to learn as I go.
I have seen and have also posted some hellacious outfits.  I don't usually need someone to comment that I looked like I fell into the tie die bucket  or Stacey and Clinton are going to chase me down and give me a fashion ticket to know that I once again blew it.    I don't believe any of us have a degree in our little hobby. But we learn by doing.  We learn how to assemble outfits, wear color and add accessories.  We learn  by research and we learn from each other with positive feedback.

We will make more bad choices and sometimes it might take days (months) before we even notice and say the ever popular "what the hell was I thinking".

My whole point of this topic is that after I commented on how I felt she missed the mark, I looked at myself and I had unknowingly done the very thing I felt she did wrong.  I had chopped my self in half.

I did this by wearing a lighter color waterfall cardigan with a turquoise T on top of black jeans.  While I hadn't finished adding the accessory frosting it made me really think if I should change my T or try to make it fly with accessories.

So my question for you is did I fly this kite or did it crash and burn?  Did I learn a lesson?  Do you even care? Tee Hee

First outfit no accessories.  Tammy cut in half.

Second try turquoise scarf.  Tammy cut in quarters.



Third try grey ombre scarf.  Am I a whole person again?


This is my first attempt at print jeans.  Clearanced from Target for $13.50
