i did my homework

1. “Beachy Bohemian” - I present some Trina Turk and LeTarte

2. Round Toes: I had a little difficulty here. I don’t think my candy red CK’s qualify

and every other pair has a “peep toe” :

 Well, these qualify but they’re really booties

and I think I now see that I am deficient in the genre of roundtoe platforms or pumps.

3. Playful Prints: I have many! I don’t have a pic of my fave DVF red print wrap but here are some other wraps and other contenders.      

4. Structured Dress: *crickets chirping*…*tumbleweeds blowing*…I don’t have and I guess I don’t want! This item is one of those things when you realize that although something is a “trend” (loosely used), it would not be good for my body shape or particular style. I would end up looking all cheap and trying too hard. Nexxxxxt!

5. Luxe Extras: Here are a few

6. Sweet Skirts:  If you have a magnifying glass and click on yesterday’s link, you’ll see that after the “IN” pieces described above, there’s also “OUT”. I’m having a little trouble with this since I seem to still be rockin’ some “outs”. Namely: understated jewelry (it’s also not right for my particular body/shape), frumpy frocks (well…loose and maxi more than frumpy!), colored diamonds (I still long for my canary yellow…), chunky 70’s clogs (have ‘em, don’t wear ‘em though).
