Pinterest Challenge – therealjlow

Hat: Marks and Spencers, White T-shirt: Zara, Black and White Trousers: Zara, Pale Pink Blazer: H&M, Flats: Next, Heels: New Look. Coat: Next and Scarf: Monsoon.

In an attempt to try and mix up my ultimate favourite colour palette of the moment (purple, blue, red and yellow) I choose to focus on pink this week.

What I love in this photo is how relaxed and effortless this outfit is. This to me screams true style. Rather than the clothes wearing you or looking over complicated they are simple, they are simply what you put on that morning and if there’s anything I wish to achieve in this lifetime with my clothes its just this.

That somehow we both meet in the middle and my style is just that. It’s the style of clothes that Jessica wears, that therealjlow wears and isn’t that just the ultimate goal?

The Capsule Wardrobe, Pinterest Challenge.

I’m going to introduce you to a little game I have started playing when getting dressed; it’s called the Pinterest challenge. Now yes I’m sure that this is already a thing but lets just, for the sake of my ego pretend that in actual fact I am a genius and that this is all my idea, kay?

So basically you find your favourite Pinterest outfit of the moment and you recreate it. Sounds simple enough right? And more than likely something you already do on the regular but here’s the kicker it has to be made by items already in your wardrobe, or in this case, your capsule wardrobe! You obviously get bonus points for the more difficult the outfit.

I’ve switched up the roll neck jumper for my triangular purple jumper and my fuzzy, faux fur scarf, and then obviously mixed it up with my favourite Downton Abbey hat! I am actually surprised by how well this turned out for me. Normally I think this jumper just draws attention to the fact that I am not all that tiny but I feel that with extensive leg on show that it actually doesn’t make me feel elephant sized! Anyway what do you think . . . are you up for the Pinterest challenge?
