| Thoughtful in Seattle: the thinking girl's neutral, grey is a smart move for a Monday. |
And yup, I did dress like this in the 1990's, so perhaps I am breaking some fashion rules (you know the one, if you wore it the first time, you shouldn't be wearing it now.) But let me tell you,
I felt more attractive and styling in this outfit, than I have in a loooong while. So rocking what worked for me back in my hay-day makes me feel: hey, today's my day!

You are rockin' those 90's legs! Great look on you!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling so good! I've got a soft spot for 90s legs myself. :)
ReplyDeleteFabulous tips for aspiring bloggers and a great interview. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYou're comfortable in what you're wearing here and it shows.

I'm loving your tights, attitude, smile and gorgeous red lips.
ReplyDeleteYou should be blogger of the month every month! You look absolutely gorgeous, especially in that photo with the smile. And you prove that rules are made to be whoop-assed!
ReplyDeleteRed is your lip color girl ;-) Your 3rd pic is so pretty!

Oh, you are totally owning this look! Love the hearts, love the hat...dang, you even make a grey sweatshirt look haute couture.
ReplyDeleteBig congrats on blogger of the month!!
Those pieces all thrown together look exactly right - I don't know people who do that with the ease you do. Great interview! And, yup, great gams.
ReplyDeleteYou could wear a burkha and still be visible, it's all in the attitude and you've got it.
ReplyDeleteLove those sexy tights and all that leg on display.
That's such a stupid rule about not wearing something we remember from the first time round, especially when we were gawky teenagers when it was first in fashion. We learn to accept and live with our "flaws" as we get older so it stands to reason that our confidence makes everything we wear rock!
Well done on being Blogger of the Moth and I'm hugely honoured by the mention. You never fail to inspire me. xxxx
You rocking the outfit, womaaaan! Specially LOVE the first shot! :*
ReplyDeleteI think you look fantastic & don't agree with that 'don't wear it the second time round' nonsense. Just wear it differently.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love a grey sweatshirt.
Awesome look Bella!:) Blogger of the month, wow congrats!! <3
ReplyDeleteBest legs in the world, Bella.
ReplyDeleteEverything you wear comes to life.
I wear everything again and again.
Feliz lunes amiga mía.

Awesome legs, gf! You are rocking and owning the 90's legs, and the whole look is a feast for the eyes. Thanks for sharing with Visible Monday. xox
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing in this hat, Bella! It was made for you and those legs!! Show them off, girl! Congratulations on the honor!!
ReplyDeleteIf anyone can pull off the 90's legs it's you! Love the pattern on those tights. Such a fun departure from the usual pattern in stores today.- Katy
ReplyDeleteI remember the tights-under-shorts thing, which has had a resurgence of popularity amongst the 20-somethings here. I remember wearing men's long underwear under a pair of army shorts in the winter. You've got great gams, girl, and you can tell you're feeling sassy in this outfit!
ReplyDeleteYOu are a Fabulous Blogger, this month, or any month - Congrats!
Well, of COURSE you are a fabulous blogger (of this month, last month, next month and the one after that too). And the decade is irrelevant, you have fabulous legs!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Bella!
ReplyDeleteAnd who cares about the rules! you wear what pleases you!
I like this outfit the 90s becomes you!

Congrats Bella!!
ReplyDeleteI think you look fantastic!!
if you wore it the first time, you shouldn't be wearing it now... whatever!
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous! I love the hat on you! I actually wore a hat like that everywhere I went in the 90's!
So cute! That hat is totally giving me the '90s vibes.
ReplyDeleteLong time no see, you look beautiful as ever!
ReplyDeleteLove those 90s leggings. They look good on you!
Big hugsss

It's a fabulous look on you, Bella, you radiate positivity and confidence. I don't take the slightest notice of the "not if you wore it first time around" (so-called) rule! Congratulations on being chosen as Blogger of the Month, that's great news! xxx
ReplyDeleteWell deserved and completely appropriate! Congratulations ... of course you are! So cute, so casual, so you!
ReplyDeleteYou are just one of the best girls ever, anywhere!
You are right feeling fabulous. This does look good on you. Your character and your shape also defines what looks good on you.
ReplyDeleteI cannot pull this off but you certainly can. (And you have such a cute, adorable face.)
