Sam and I have decided to start this new segment: Makeshift Models. Basically, we decide on a theme, then get together at one of our houses, and choose outfits for each other. So...in these photos, the theme was mixing patterns and Sam picked out my oufit, while I picked out hers. We'll most likely do a lot of these type of post over the summer, as we'll have ACTUAL time. Surprising, right?

In Sam's look, I combined this gypsy-like top with the floral skirt to create a base to work off of. Then, I added the floppy black hat, the black-and-gold neclace, the oxfords, the bag, and the cardigan to add subtle touches of black to offset the many patterns in this outfit; the stripes, the floral, etc.
