Having Fun With Fashion

November 25, 2013

Bell Bottoms Street Style

Mixing is one of the things that I really enjoy when deciding what to wear. Sometimes I feel like mixing a little bit and sometimes I love to go overboard. Combining pieces from difference eras, styles, colors, ethnicities and prints is the part of my personal style that I really have fun with it. 

Combinar es una de las cosas que disfruto en grande cuando llega el momento de decidirme que ponerme. Aveces me gusta hacer combinaciones pequeñas y a veces me gusta irme a los extremos. La Combinación de diferentes eras, estilos, colores, cosas étnicas o estampados es la parte de mi estilo personal que me divierte más.

Now, this is a mixing right here ;-). These lovely ladies from Old Salem (near where I live) and most of the people that work in the town, dress up like the Moravians used to dress back in the 1700's. They're a great source of fashion inspiration (mainly when picnic weather kicks in) and life style as well, and the food is wonderful here.

Hablando de combinaciones!!! Estas lindas señoras de Old Salem (cerca de mi casa) y la mayoría de las personas que trabajan aquí, se visten como las personas Moravians lo hacían en los anos 1700. El estilo de vida y el vestuario de ellos (principalmente en el tiempo de picnic) es una gran inspiración, también  la comida es fantástica.

  3. Ah the last picture is making me smile, I love the contrast and spirit! You do have fun and enjoy seeing this. I like how you add just the right touches like this colorful belt. I think I've become a bit to conservative with my posts. You are inspiring me to change!

    1. Ann!! What are you talking about? Who is the one featured in Redbook magazine this month? I would not call your posts a bit conservative, I would call them classic and sophisticated and THAT is exactly what I love about your blog.

    1. LOL…this girl love to have fun! I can't help it Niki. I grew up in between African, Mayans and Spanish culture, so the mixing comes from my roots ;-). Now, I am getting some serious inspiration from your own blog and the Indian culture. What a gorgeous culture! One day I will visit.
