I adore this pattern on pattern combination. It is exactly perfect!! The photos are spot on as usual. I like your use of negative space so your outfits really breathe. Very cool necklace. Did you see the one Mis Papelicos made? Much simpler, but flowers as well. Everyone's got spring on the brain. You could fit several bottles of wine in that big bag. Did you take it to the sunset shoot in the previous post?!
ReplyDeleteYou did!
DeleteThank you again Melanie for your inspiration to push myself! I am so happy with this outfit...and the ease and dramatic movement with wearing. I appreciate your comment on the use of negative space...with an outfit this striking it definitely needed room to breath to visually. I will have to go check out Mis Papelicos necklace!
DeleteI just love this...perfection
ReplyDeleteThank you Megan...I sure enjoyed your bold graphic shots of pattern mixing!
DeleteA maxi AND stripes?!! I'm there. Plus the color accents take this look over the top. I would imitate this look verbatim. The pictures are great as well. Kudos to you and yours.
ReplyDeleteLove, Jean
Jean thank you for your kind words....the best part of this outfit it is fun to wear...I had forgotten the movement of a maxi. I so appreciate you stopping by!
DeleteVery cool!! Have you thought about adding red accents? I don't wear the nautical look often but I love to see it on other people. That dress is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYes Jeanine I love the energy of adding red accents to nautical stripes...they are usually my first go to... this season I have such an addiction to all nautical stripes I am now pushing myself to even more combinations...I am working my nautical stripes as a neutral this season...I am excited by the possibilities!
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
Boundaries pushed beautifully! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you Stacey for your kind words!
DeleteWow! Amazing mix of stripes. Probably the best I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteWhat a compliment Sheri, thank you!
DeleteWhat a great idea for a necklace! A friend's sister recently purchased a brooch bouquet in lieu of real flowers for her upcoming wedding :: I had never seen one before then. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove the look this week! And those target shoes ~~ love.
Thank you Susan...my always beautiful friend!
DeleteThat necklace is amazing, and paired with the stripes it's extraordinary! So lovely, Tamera!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Cate...I loved your photo in the woods!
DeleteAhh that necklace is so pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much my dear!
DeleteI love your outfit, simply beautiful on you!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much my dear...I so enjoyed your photos!
DeleteWow! What a stunning look! I really love your style, Tamera. It's so chic.
ReplyDeleteI am happy to hear you are taking on a spending freeze. My freeze is over - lasted about 5 weeks - and was so helpful in getting my wardrobe where it should be: small and useful and full of lovable, wearable clothes and accessories. I am back to buying clothes now, but am much more selective about what I buy.
I hope you find the freeze as useful as I did!
Adrienne
Yes Adrienne, whenI had to spend part of my birthday on Sunday, unpacking purchases....i realized I had gone off my usual thought out purchasing...it will take me at least a month to cull through what I have....and my edits. Thank you for the wardrobe inspiration!
DeleteThat necklace is AH.mazeee.ING!!!!
ReplyDeleteDanielle...hearing from you ...made my night! Miss you dear friend!
DeleteCan't wait for the DIY,cuz you know....I make jewelry. In any case, I'm makin' this. Looove it!!!

DeleteLOVE it ALL!! You make me wanna run out and get those wedges from Target!! FAB necklace as always!! And stripe on stripe - who KNEW?!?!!? Love the lil flirty bottom of the dress too!!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, Tamara, another beautiful photo shoot. I love the shoes and the clothes that you're wearing.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cindy
The stripes overall are marvelous...but that dress with the increasing size of stripes is truly wonderful.
ReplyDeleteLOVE this look...LOVE it. That necklace is wonderful (I am a bit of a vintage brooch fan) and I will check out the DIY, thanks for posting it. ~~Bliss
ReplyDeleteAh, Tamera, your stripes are so fabulous! You look gorgeous and runway-ready, if you so chose. Thanks so much for sharing your look with Visible Monday.
ReplyDeleteLove the way you mixed the stripes. You look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOMG, I love, love that necklace! I went and read the tutorial. I have a necklace similar to the base and I think I am going to try something like this! I have a necklace made from old enamel pins, but I adore yours! The mixed stripes is truly inspired.
ReplyDeleteLove the stripes on stripes!
ReplyDeleteStripes and stripes make me smile!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe those shoes are from Target!!! They are fabulous!
