How Many Animals Is Too Many?

Bees! Flies! Elephants! Snakes! Oh my!

I started out with the snake belt (I wish I had taken a better pic, b/c it has a cute gold head and tail that make the buckle). And then I added the elephant necklace. After the bee earrings came into the picture, I went on a mission to find my fly ring b/c 3 creates in an outfit is weird, but 4 is a theme! ha!

did the bees and the fly want to play around in the flowers from your skirt all day?

I love that the bees and flies came into an outfit with such a lovely skirt. I also love the way that you document the food you ate. A few days ago you added points too. Can you continue doing that? Maybe for each food item- or maybe I'm asking too much.

The shoes!! You didn't mention where they were from and they are awesome! Also, you know I am a fan of the skirt since I have it too!

I just adore that skirt and the jewelry? Gorgeous.

Love the colors in that skirt, and how you kept the top part simple to let the skirt shine.

Sheila said...

What a gorgeous skirt! I would totally buy that. You have just the right number of animals - that jungle-y print in the skirt makes me imagine them all crawling out to turn into your accessories.

I love "When Harry Met Sally". :)

What a beautiful outfit, Tina. You are SO skilled at taking patterned skirt and adding little pops of color all over the outfit that echo the colors in the skirt - I'm always impressed at how well you do this. I love the cute animal theme too.
