i interrupt the 30x30x$30 challenge to bring you a different kind of outfit post.
my good friend, Amy, asked me to join her Open To Interpretation party today and i am really excited about it!
Open To Interpretation is where you take an outfit from a magazine, fashion blog, {pinterest}, and re-create it using your own creativity.
i love the concept of this because too many time i think women i look at those fashion pictures too often and think to myself,
“oh, well, if i had that skirt or that blouse or had her body then yeah my outfit would be amazing.”
NAY!!
you can definitely be just as cute by using your own creativity and by shopping your closet!
{also why i love the 30x30 challenge!}
seriously.
it works!
so here’s the picture that we were given to use for inspiration in picking our outfit this week:
and here’s my take on the outfit:
{and i realize the time of day was a bad choice for lighting but… whatevs}
i really liked my outfit because i don’t think i would have thought to put all those pieces together if i didn’t see that picture first. Adam actually picked out a different sweater for me that looked good too, but i thought the sweater vest gave it more of my own personal, quirky& funky flair.
oh yeah, and this whole outfit is under $20!!
SCORE!
what do you think?
what pieces would you put together to try and re-create this outfit?
note: you don’t have to have red pants or a furry hat!! i happened to have red pants on a fluke. but you could definitely do this outfit without them!
go check out Amy, Erika, or Kayla’s blog for more great interpretations!
i hope you still check out all those shops/blogs because they are amazing
and i really did read through all 414 comments so THANK YOU THANK YOU for all your sweet words and congratulations!!
i couldn’t have done it without all of you!

You were pretty much born to be a style blogger. Yep. But really, I LOVE this outfit. The striped shirt with that vest is the cutest combo ever! You are such an itty bitty thing! Thanks for participating, friend!
I love the pattern mixing with the shirt and vest! Our outfits are actually kinda similar b/c I did wore a vest and a beanie as well. I must have been inspired by you! Thanks for participating!

I really love the flare on your red pants too! You're just so cute in your pictures that I'm pretty sure you're the outfit equivalent to an American Idol contestant who's told they could sing the phone book and people would love it. I'm excited to look at more of your posts.
That sweater vest is ridiculously awesome. Your whole outfit looks so wonderfully wintery.
Thanks for participating!!
