Until recently, yellow {or mustard if you will} wasn’t really a color I wore. But I was fortunate that on a lovely day during the Nordstrom Annual Sale, that this little guy found me, and I’ve been enamored with yellow ever since. So with the challenge winding down {yes I will probably mention the end of this challenge in every post until it’s over} I thought I would give this cardigan one final hoorah. I was really excited by the idea of this outfit. I had yet to wear this cardigan with pants, nor had I worn this particular scarf. So I thought the combo seemed great, fabulous actually.
The actual result was, unfortunately, less than fabulous. These pants are a little big {and while I wouldn’t complain about that most days} it just made the look feel a little sloppy. This shirt was also not cooperating as it refused to stay tucked in. I thought a belt would help the pants from falling down/shirt untucking itself, but it was more a pain than anything.
C’est la vie. Not everyday can be a winner, right? Better luck tomorrow {today actually}.
I'm with ya on the yellow, I have only started wearing it in the last year.
ReplyDeleteI would have never known this was an outfit dud - it looks great in pictures!
I'm sorry that you didn't feel as fabulous in this look as you look - because I think you do look fabulous. I love that shade of yellow on you, especially with that scarf. They just work so well together.
ReplyDeleteSorry for your sartorial woes but there are awful days like that. One of my WORST days was the very first of the challenge. I was so excited to begin but just ended up disappointed. I do love that sweater, though, and you make it look good!
ReplyDeleteI love love love that cardi on you. I looked at a mustard colored sweater yesterday in a store (just wrapped up the remix) and thought, nah...but you totally just inspired me!
ReplyDeleteI love the mustard yellow cardigan and scarf, it's the perfect pop of color for this look!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the pants but the outfit is still lovely!
Awww...to bad that the outfit didn't work out to be fabulous in real life. Take solace in the fact that it looks good in pictures. That scarf is so pretty.

ReplyDeleteI think this outfit is super cute! Mustard is my new favorite color so I especially love this cardigan! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Besides the aggravating pants I do really love this.
ReplyDeleteThanks! This scarf is one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteOh I don't think your day 1 was bad at all!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely more versatile {as this challenge is proving} than I ever imagined.
ReplyDeleteOh it was just one of those days you know? But thanks Kinsey!

Love this look and the mustard (it's one of my favorites)! And I really like where the pants hit you with that belt.
ReplyDeleteGreat look!
OMG I LOVE that color. Looks so good on you!
ReplyDeleteDespite what you say, I think the outfit is lovely! The mustard color is really hard to pull off, but it looks wonderful on you!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work!

Love the mustard, love the scarf, love the hair. Love, love, love. Seriously, I'd steal your hair except I'd look really strange as a blonde. And even though I'm sure you could pull it off, it wouldn't be very nice to make you be bald. <--that whole tangent was sort of creepy. Sorry. My compliments always end up weird.
ReplyDeleteI am totally in love with this look! It is so professional and put together...I love the shape and color of that sweater!
ReplyDeleteThe scarf is PERFECT with that sweater. The colors were made for each other.
