Ah, the end of my self-imposed theme week that featured the same accessories with different outfits. Would you say it's a theme worth repeating? It actually makes remixing a heck of a lot easier. Is that weird? Would you think taking the same outfit and using different accessories is more helpful than taking the same accessories and making different outfits? I don't know. I just know that changing up the outfit to match the accessories made my life easier than I anticipated. Plus, it was fun to find "different" color pairings. (I could have been more adventurous, really.)
What
really made me think of it was the fact that I had this same shoe and necklace pairing with a
previous outfit. I included it as the final image in my collage. I thought, "hmm...I wore these together before. Will they go with all of the other outfits I have planned?" Indeed, they did.
Which look was your favorite? Do you typically let your accessories dictate an outfit or is it the other way around?

I think this was a fun idea! And if it makes remixing easier and more fun, I say go ahead and do it again! I don't think I consciously wear the same accessories together, but now that I think about it, I probably do it all the time.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks lovely, may favorite would be between the white dress and the white top with red shorts. It´s funny because I´m usually fond of wearing the same outfit but with different accessories to change the whole look while you get to wear different outfits with only necklace as your accessory and everything looks good! :)

I think that this was definitely a great theme week idea. Sometimes I get caught-up in having so many accessories that I forget how far one set can take me. You should do this theme as a link-up next time! I will definitely participate!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great theme week and perfect accessories especially the just-adorable Franco Sarto Sandals. Love both Colorful Shorts+Peplum Top Looks and the Denim Vest with the Striped Skirt.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well. Visit my blog sometimes. I haven't heard from you in over 2 months.
Speaking of theme weeks, I am doing a themed week next week all week with Maria. We will do budget posts and keep each outfit under 75 bucks and there will be a link up every day also so come join us. Thanks. Have a great weekend, Danielle. =)
I like this self-imposed theme a lot. I definitely have creative slumps when it comes to clothes, so this idea is kind of awesome. Accessories are usually a last minute thought for me, so thinking about them first would be something new!
ReplyDeleteAccessories are more of an after-thought for me. I dress for the occasion more than anything and it's not uncommon for me to forget earrings until I go to reach for my ears (for some unknown reason) and realize I'm not wearing any.
ReplyDeleteI think this was a great idea for a theme week, using accessories to plan an outfit. My favorite is with the white dress :)
The third and fourth looks are definitely my favorite, but they're all great (obviously). I like making themes for myself, and I also enjoy revolving outfits around accessories. It's just a fun change of pace sometimes :)
ReplyDeleteI actually really loved this idea! About 97% of the time, I put on the clothing first, and then accessorize, but I definitely have planned an outfit around a necklace or pair of shoes before. I'm definitely going to have to try this out sometime...thanks for the inspiration!!
