#RulesWereMadeToBeBroken

My outfit of the day, #BreakingTheRules:
Tumblr media
“Don’t wear white after Labor day,”
You’ve heard it, I’ve heard it. No white after Labor Day! But, why? Whoever said that obviously didn’t see me in this dress!
After a little digging, I found this article by Mind Floss explaining this saying:

Guess who broke this rule and wore white year round? Coco Chanel.
Trendsetter rule #1: Rules are meant to be broken!

HOW WOULD I DESCRIBE MY PERSONAL STYLE?
Sunday, 6/17/2018Well, it depends on:
the day,
the weather,
my mood,
and most importantly – where I am going!
You can safely say that I have always been a bit extra; I haven’t been afraid to stand out from the crowd by wearing something daring. I have never been one to follow trends, just because Anna Wintour has decided that something is currently in season doesn’t mean that I will have to go out an buy it- to the contrary. Just because the Devil wears Prada doesn’t mean that this little devil will – I have always preferred Chanel, anyway. I march to the beat of my own drum – even if I am off rhythm.
I love the elegance and refined taste of Kate Spade, may she rest in peace ♠ The bohemian and free-spirited flow of Free People resonates with my soul. The youthful sex appeal of For Love and Lemons invigorates me. I adore the simple and quaint style of Abercrombie and Fitch. I am energized by the eccentrics and bright colors of Betsey Johnson. I enjoy the variety and design of Vince Camuto – I could wear his heels exclusively. And I am complete by the vintage, tasteful and timeless approach of Chanel. Does that give you an idea of my fashion style? I hope so.

LOW-KEY OBSESSION FOR SPRING/SUMMER 2018:

What I love about fashion, is that nothing is ever definite. What is currently popular is not necessarily going to be popular in 3 months time, but then again, can never be dismissed completely. Some styles come back with a vengeance- bell bottom jeans, high waisted pants, crop tops; others never really go out of style – little black dresses, a sleek pair of pumps paired with jeans, oversized Chanel sunglasses. I am currently loving the classy animal print that is all the rage right now. My feet are feeling some sort of way looking at these shoes:

If you haven’t noticed, there isn’t much of a variety of “animal print” here, it’s exclusively leopard/cheetah print. I’ve always had a soft spot for the leopard/cheetah print, way, way, way before it was popular and let me tell ya, it was hard to find in such a classy style. It usually came in this overly fake, too big spots style that looked tacky to me. But it’s all I had to work with, so work with it I did.
Do you have a favorite animal print? How do you feel towards the leopard/cheetah print trend? I’ll give you a penny for your thoughts! Let me know on here, Twitter or Facebook using #PennywiseForMyThoughts
