Summer- it's not over yet, or as we would say here in the south- it AIN'T over yet. Nope, not on the calendar or with the temps, so I'm still going through my summer wardrobe and getting in as much wear as possible. As tempting at the plaids, fur, olive, booties and such may be, summer is not over yet and it' not quite time for them. 

 

I've had this outfit  in my head for almost a year, based on the scarf. I don't know why it took me all summer to finally wear it but here it is. Everything in this post is super old. I do tend to keep and wear things for years, even it I only wear it once or twice a season. It breaks the boredom.

When I saw this embroidered linen skirt at the thrift store, I fell in love. Problem was I could not picture it three ways or with even one thing in my closet. I kept picturing a lace or crochet type top with  it in the color pictured. And then luckily I found this top for around $10 in Ross. I also have a different necklace pictured in my mind with this but I haven't found that or made it yet, bu this piece works well and so my envisioned look came together.

 

Now I have a couple of pieces that I will have to challenge myself on ways to wear, but sometimes you have to break the rules.
