Blue Mint

Blue has never been a go-to color for me. I don’t have blue eyes, so there’s nothing to bring out there and my pale complexion has never really mixed well with the oceanic hue. But then I got this t-shirt from those stylish Olsen twins and figured, if I’m going to do this whole blue thing I might as well go monochromatic. So monochromatic I went.
I began with the aquatically blue StyleMint tie-dye shirt and styled it with my new favorite pair of blue jeans (an item of clothing I’ve been known to shy away from since I discovered my staple black skinnies). But I wasn’t impressed when I glanced in the mirror (which had nothing to do with the fact that I’m having a wretched hair day). I needed more blue in my look and my Mom’s blue tooth head piece wasn’t going to suffice. So, I reached into the back of my closet in San Francisco that has held the same archaic clothing since I went to college in 2004 and found this itsy bitsy baby boy vintage blue blazer. Shpadoinkle! My blue look was complete.

Black & Red

I’ve been in desperate need of a few days off for awhile now so I’m thrilled to have a short week this week. Aside from dressing up for Thanksgiving, I plan on spending the rest of the week/weekend in comfy clothes while hanging with my family.
This outfit is another oldie but definitely a goodie because it may not look like it but everything I’m wearing is about as comfortable as a pair of soft, stretchy pajamas; which, let’s face it, is probably going to be the only comfortable thing after a giant Thanksgiving meal.

Crunching Leaves

I never used to be much of a clutch person. Aside from my wallet being larger than most clutches, I was always afraid I would lose them, mindlessly leaving one on a table or in a bathroom. The other day however, I picked up this Stella & Dot clutch and now find myself looking for reasons to wear a clutch more often! I love it for it’s simplicity and versatility and of course, the buttery soft leather is perfection. Using a clutch has also made me reevaluate just how much I really need to carry around with me all day (i.e. is it really necessary that I carry FIVE chapsticks at the same time? I think not).
Now, here’s something even more exciting about this clutch – Stella & Dot would like to GIFT one of you darling readers this buttery soft gem that’s changed my handbag life. All you have to do is:
- Like Stella & Dot on Facebook
- Like Runway Hippie on Facebook
- Leave a comment here telling me your favorite Thanksgiving dish
I’ll announce the winner on Black Friday!
