Daily Outfit: Hippie Legs







i must say that one of the major benefits of crocheting is making your own legwarmers!  this blast from the past accessory is the perfect highlight to my everyday outfit.  it doesn't take much to put these on display, especially when worn with these cute retro pumps (a b-day gift from my Mommy).  i picked up one of the bright colors from the yarn with my violet shirt and the rest just fell into place.  in order to keep the eye drawn to the right places, my basic black skinny jeans and color block blazer were the right compliment.  if this outfit wasn't retro enough, my fave headband pushed it over the edge.   though i call this outfit hippie legs, it really does draw from styling from the 60's, 70's, 80's and now.  just another example of how certain styles are timeless!

PS. many of our sales are made once someone sees an item in action and styled for everyday.  another one of our best clients quickly placed an order for a pair of legwarmers similar to these after she saw me wearing them.  (Yay, Jaz!) today is actually her b-day, maybe she had one last chance to rock her new pair of legwarmers before the warm weather comes to stay!  :)

Daily Outfit: Tribal Dancer








i looooooooooove legwarmers!! especially when they are MF legwarmers! :) these bad boys take an outfit from regular to a wow factor. ...and they are really warm!! go figure, lol... i felt very "flashdance" in my outfit.  in fact, that's exactly what my friend said to me. she said i was giving her a flashdance vibe but that my moccasins were throwing her off, making it "native american flashdance".  hence, tribal dancer!  i think tribal dancer is the perfect definition of this outfit.  i don't mind the dancer vibe.  i actually danced with a troupe when i was younger.  unfortunately, dancing at parties every now and then is all that's left of my dancing career.  either way, it is fun to reminisce ...and legwarmers, leggings and a mini dress can help make the memory come alive!
