10 Stylish Outfits That Pull Your Look Together

By

 

It’s HERE! Finally, Outfit 10! I wanted to make this one extra special for you.  I just couldn’t leave you hanging with 9 outfits and a few cute handmade hats.  I’m sure I’ll have more handmade hats in the future but to finalize this series I needed to share this handmade hat with you and the outfits that pull everything together. Although I have had many different outfits over the last couple of months I waited because I wanted to make Outfit 10 a good one (plus, the lighting was just right, I had a good makeup day and I was in the right mood – you get it).  Let’s find out what I’m wearing and what put a smile on my face.

Outfit 9 – Hat with Focus

By

This, my friends, is my handmade Trucker Hat with focus. Although it looks like I tripped head first into my flower garden this Trucker Hat gets things done. The bright pink shirt is deliberate, it’s a cool day worthy of jeans and not to mention the spectacular shoes put the BOOM in my thunder.

Outfit 7- Dressing for the Job

By Leave a Comment

So, I don’t believe I have the greatest set of legs to be wearing shorts and boots at the same time and this particular Saturday morning I did not care.  It was Function and Fashion Festival in Lanesboro, MN. Actually it’s called Art in the Park, an outdoor craft show and it had rained buckets the night before at the park. Read how Bound to be Creative dresses for the job and balances function and fashion.

Outfit #5: Who’s Your Bestie?

By

Seriously, the wind earlier this week had me at…shutter-buster-window-whistlin’-hold-on-to-your-hats! I was actually worried about not getting to my meeting out of town because of the wind. Call me a pansy or an introvert, either way, I voted to get there or be square. Here’s how I layered up after my brain refused to wear a coat.

Outfit #4: Keep on Truckin’

By

I have soft spot for this hat. Glad you asked….

Feelin’ Tough
The Trucker Hat is an “I’m tough” sorta hat-feelin’ when I throw it on.  When I wear this handmade hat, most of the time my hair is fancy free and not constrained by bands or clips. My mood changes a bit to rebeliscious (of course it’s a real word). The Trucker Hat makes me want to kick up some dust on country roads in 4-wheel drive, heck – make that a stick shift and might as well throttle some donut holes in the middle of the road and call it, well…. feelin’ tough.

BUT today, my friends – it’s the perfect opportunity to show you how a handmade hat can look great on a no makeup-bread-baking-go-for-a-walk-in-my-blacktop-neighborhood weekday! Who’s with me? YES!!!!

Outfit #3: Color Complimenting is Key

By

A quick little OOTD (outfit of the day).  I wore a fun outfit a couple of weeks ago when taking some kiddos to the ortho (see photo below). I wanted to have some “express yourself fun” as I had been a nurse-mom to a daughter who had a tonsillectomy (two weeks home in bed, ugh!). As my daughter was just waking up, her eyes just about popped outta her head when she saw I was actually wearing “the tights”. She was probably thankful to be staying on the couch and not venturing out with said tights and her mom at the same time. I love the mom-perks – “shock and awe”.

Outfit #2: Yes, white in winter

Who says you can’t wear white in winter?  I dress as my mood strikes me and this day I was feeling a bright white.  The sun was out and my mood was just as sunny – I was taking my daughters into town for afternoon window shopping. Find out how fashion and function unite!

Outfit#1: Wool Worth It

When it comes to outdoors, I’m a stickler at making the most of every season right down to accessorizing and bringing the outdoors in (…more on those winter-interest cuttings later). As my family knows, I have plenty of coats, scarves, mittens and of course, hats. So how do I no-brainer accessorize when heading out the door in a Minnesota winter with negative wind chills? Glad you asked! Here’s a quick peek from last week out in the yard, of course with our dog, Maple.
