Your Favorite Look: Hot & Cold
125 Comments
Studs, Zippers, and Leather
With the exception of the shoes, all pieces from this outfit are over a year old.
Yes...that includes the bag and jewelry!


You'll see these pieces again in the Fall...

It's hard to believe that May is over, and we're 1/2 way through the year!  If you are wondering...Bessie have you taken all of your June photos yet?  The answer is....yes!  Mission accomplished over Memorial Day weekend.  While I put a greater focus on colour this month featuring many new pieces revealed in my Spring Haul back in March.  The end result was that "Hot & Cold," the most commented outfit, comprised of only 2 colours blue & black, was constructed from pieces already in my closet.  I took that as a sign!  At this point, you are probably wondering what else lies within my closet aside from the epic handbag collection?  I shopped my closet more so than the clothing racks while assembling June outfits, tune in to see what I'm holding on to!

Summer is almost here!  
Have you been shopping more inside your closet or at stores?

  4. I love looks 6, 11 and 14, and of course, "Hot and Cold" is a fantastic outfit! I haven't purchased too many pieces of clothing lately, but did pick up a few sundresses from LOFT for a weekend trip I have coming up. Can't wait to see your June photos!

  8. Lovely looks! I do like that outfit :)

    I would love to see you do a month of JUST shopping from your closet, that'd be cool :)

  24. I love that you're shopping your closet more, Bessie! I haven't set foot in a mall since April and I'm having serious withdrawals. I've mostly been doing thrift store shopping but it's not exactly the same...I think I'm gonna cave soon!

    To answer the question, nope, shopping a bit outside of my closet!

    Yes.. so I was on track with Henry's 6 wives... their fate in life. Got it!

    I don't know. Teaching is a very rewarding experience, I've had my share of volunteering in the classroom and loved it, but I can see how sometimes some heavy doses of Tylenol would be in order! (haha)
