Weekend Re-Creation

What: Re-creating the look of a recent post with pieces assembled from across the web.

Inspiration: Olivia's mixed-print ensemble (click thumbnail above for link to original post featuring Olivia).

Why: The dangers inherent in mixing prints is what makes attempting it so tantalizing. Try  Olivia's method of safely introducing just a touch of contrasting print to an outfit in the form of an over-sized floral tote. Below, two outfits inspired by Olivia -the first of which incorporates her two-bag idea from the original post...
