As I said, super excited when I wore this outfit, totally thrilled with the photos at first, but when it came time to edit and scrutinize more closely I lost that lovin' feelin'. I thought I was cleverly playing with proportions but I do not love the short jacket with the longer cardigan; it's just not working on my figure. I also dislike the orange paired up next to the red because they're just too similar. I look like I was given access to a blogger's wardrobe with the stipulation that I had to get dressed in the dark. I love all the elements separately, and some together, but the overall look doesn't thrill me. I wasn't going to post the outfit at all but then I figure that's what I keep this blog for- live and learn from the good and the bad.

I actually think you look really good. And I looove the pants
I was just going to comment on how you did the longer cardi/short jacket much better than I ever have when I read your comments. I agree that it usually just looks awkward, but I think you're pulling it off. Maybe a different color would work better, or the cardigan buttoned up?
I'd be joining the train too, but I have no leopard print and only one pair of cropped red pants. I may need to do more shopping I think...Christmas gifts to myself are totally normal, right? :P
I am so in love with these bright red pants, and the leopard print together!! I hate when you take pictures and end up disliking the look afterwards, but I think you look great

Well we are our biggest critics because I think you look great! And I laughed at your "typical blogging outfit". You look great and I love the boots! What a great sister you have!
It's pretty awesome of you to post pics of an outfit you weren't necessarily wild about -- like you said, it's part of the process both for bloggers and readers to get a peek at this side of the fashion experience.
But for the record: you look hot and I don't know what you're talking about.
My kinda outfit!
Very cute outfit, I really like that necklace!!

Yeah...what is the deal with cameras and mirrors not speaking the same language all the time??? Like, can't they standardize that shiz? Anyway I like the way the different layers peek out from underneath one another. You be trippin.
