musing...

This is most definitely NOT a current OOTD, as we just received another light dusting of snow outside.  However it might set me up for some inspirations come spring, especially as I continue to explore long-skirtitude.  The adorably witty JG posted this challenge as a new style feature last week, to create an outfit of inspired by Tara's sunny photo, comprised of items already in your closet.

I simply had to take on the challenge since I had a few items in my closet that I've had trouble incorporating into my wardrobe.

Clarks Erda sandals

I have a weakness for typologies, so a skirt full of different chair illustrations?  Sold!  Though it's harder to work than anticipated, I am convinced I can find some ways to wear it come spring that don't scream 'frumpy!'  
It works quite well as a shorter skirt, of course:
J Crew Jackie burnt cinnamon cardigan, Gap oatmeal henley with rust tank top.
I am fully obsessed with finding pale minty-green drapey t-shirts all of a sudden, which just don't seem to exist right now.  Any leads?  At least the rust is, and I've spied some gorgeous off-brown tones at Zara too this season!
