Pinspiration and an Outfit Post

I have this great new schedule where I work an extra hour almost every day, and then I get every other Tuesday off. So today I slept in, got dressed, took pictures, and now I'm at the coffee shop across the street writing this post. Next I'm going to hit the antique store next door. I think every other Tuesday might be my new favorite day of the week.

 

Personal schedule aside, this post is actually about outfits inspired by Pinterest. Pinterest is kind of a black hole for me. I pin stuff I like and then may or may not ever look at or consider a pin again. This morning I decided to flick through my Fashion pins and then go shopping in my closet to make it happen. Inspiration above and my take is below.

 

Bear with me on the shadowy photos; I'm still figuring out the best places to do stuff like this in the new apartment, given the gloomy weather lately and our north facing windows and cluttery space.

 

What do you think? I don't have a solid black scarf, but I'm always looking for an opportunity to wear this gold and black striped scarf.

Do you go shopping in your closet after you go shopping on Pinterest? Or is your Pinterest a black hole like mine? Leave a comment and let me know.
