Mira’s Closet: 04/20/15: Details

MClosetMira’s no fashionista, but she definitely has her own sense of style…
And now here’s an update on just that.

First an observation: If you have followed any of these posts, my meager attempts at fashion commentary, you know that I really like to accessorize. The only problem with that is that I limit myself greatly because of my personal quirks. I’m not really into purses, I have problems with my feet so don’t care much for shoes, and I have to be in the right mood to really indulge in jewelry. So what does that leave? That leaves hats, scarves, hair and body wraps, flowers, bows, and feathers- all for my hair. I recently wore an outfit that was very basic; a solid colored shirt, dark denim jeans, and dark shoes. However, the whole ensemble was brighten up with three small additions: a multicolored flower worn in my hair, a bracelet matching a highlight from the flower, and earrings matching the same highlight. It is small details like this that can change a basic outfit into something special and also add vitality to a story. I don’t believe in unnecessary descriptions, but sometimes small details really can make a difference.

Now here are some style tips/clips from
Torimy own personal fashion guru, trainer, and my physical inspiration for Mira.

Mira’s Closet: 03/23/15: Seasonal

MClosetMira’s no fashionista, but she definitely has her own sense of style…
And now here’s an update on just that.

First an observation: Seasonal trends seem to abound in every industry in one way or another. With fashion it’s simply more obvious. It’s spring now so that means bright flowery colors and cardigans- at least for me anyway. I always bring something with me in case I get a chill, so the cardigan is the way to go for me. In fall it’s worn over long sleeves and in the spring over short sleeves. As for bright colors, I’ll be wearing lots of yellow, blue, and lime green, and of course I’ll have flowers in my hair. It’s just my thing. Even as the seasons change in my book, Mira’s wardrobe changes. It just makes sense.

Top 5

Top 5: 16 – Colors

sample This is a list of my top five something. Most of the time my lists are pretty static, but sometimes I do change my mind. While I do try to apply some logic to my choices, sometimes I pick things that make no sense and for no good reason other than “I like it.”

Pinterest board Blue

Colors

1. blue

2. brown

3. red

4. yellow

5. green

I wish I had a clear concise reason to share with you why adore blue so much, but I don’t. I could guess that because it’s the color of the sky and the ocean and it’s something we are all constantly exposed to in nature, but I think that is a bit deep. I adore blue and that’s that.
