Hey y’all, I’m Sarah and I blog over at Tucker Up!
Sheaffer and I had a “blate” {blogger date} a couple months ago, and I am so happy she allowed me to ramble about my outfit over here at Pinterest Told Me To!
Thanks Sheaffer!
Before I let Pinterest boss me around, let me fill you in on my little life in Texas.
I live in the North Dallas area with my hunky hubby and our two furbabies, aka Wrigley and Bailey. I work in the corporate world by day and am a blogger/graduate student by night. I became Mrs. Tucker last June and a first time home-owner last April. I adore fashion, BUT this year my New Year’s Resolution is NO CLOTHES, SHOES, OR ACCESSORY purchases for A YEAR. None, nada, zipoo. You can read all about my resolution and the reasoning behind it {here}.
With no new clothes purchases for a year I am going to have to get creative with my outfits! Dim the lights, cue the background music, and please welcome my lifesaver: Pinterest!
I looked to Pinterest last weekend when trying to come up with an outfit for a day with my girls. Can I mention one little thing…I am LOVING the Aztec and Navajo print. Ummm, anyone else?! I realized I only have one item in this print and on December 31st {my last ditch effort to buy something before my resolution kicked it}, in the Albuquerque airport {with no laptop and an iphone with horrible cell service}, I was scouring websites in search of the perfect Najavo cardigan. No. Freaking. Luck. Oh well, God was teaching me that I already have enough!
Pinterest came up clutch and knocked one out of the park {sorry for the baseball reference. the hubs and I played in college, so we are slightly obsessed.} with this little number. I would have never paired these items together, but, alas, I had a perfect outfit for a sunny Saturday!
Here are my inspiration pins {is that dress not to die for?!?}:

Chambray Top: Forever 21
Aztec Skirt: Target

So there ya have it, an Aztec outfit straight out of my very own tee-pee 🙂
Thanks for letting me share, Sheaffer! I will continue to envy the fab items you post on your glorious blog, all while writing the items down on my list of things to buy next year!
*********************************
HOW CUTE IS SARAH and her darling outfit?
Confession – I do not own anything Aztec inspired. I didn’t even think I liked it.
I was wrong.
Apparently, if styled right, it looks great!
Another confession – when I met Sarah for lunch I about choked on my chicken salad sandwich when she told me how old she is.
I could ALMOST be her mother. I mean, not really. But almost.
(Shay, you can shut it.)
I felt like such a cougar on our blate.

Very nice. I love the rich use of color. The bangles are my favorite. My mind is racing with all the ways I could wear those.
Well done. Please stop by and say hi.
