If this outfit looks familiar it is because it is a copy of the outfit I use in my header. A great motivation to never repeat a certain outfit would be making it your header image on your blog and being forced to see it every day. However, I still love this dress and vest and I wanted to wear them together again. Since the shoes and tights are different I suppose it isn't a head-to-toe copy, but there was clearly no sartorial transformation. I'm definitely not against repeating garments, but I do usually try to avoid repeating an exact outfit. I sort of turn getting dressed into a game and the big rule is to only wear every combination once, but I'm also against not letting yourself wear something because of some silly rule...so, here I am breaking one of my personal "rules." After all, my number one rule is that getting dressed should be enjoyable.
Welcome to my little blog that blends a bit of nature, fashion, wanderings, and books in this dusty corner of the Internet. I hope you find it a moment of quiet in the wild today.
I love your necklace! You look amazing.
ReplyDeleteLong time reader, first time commentor!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous as always, you are my style inspiration...

Well it certainly is a great combination. (:
ReplyDeletei love your shoes!!
ReplyDeleteLove that you wore this outfit again I love the vest!! getting dressed should def always be enjoyable unfort most morning im in such a rush it usually ends up being stressful! lol x
ReplyDeletemy thoughts are this: if you love it, wear it. it doesn't matter how many times you've worn it before, what matters is that you're comfortable and happy.
ReplyDeleteyou certainly have a talent when it comes to mix and matching rebecca ! i try to not wear a similar styling more than once as well.. i try to discover as much mix and matching possibilities out there !
ReplyDeletei actually didnt even realize that this is the same outfit as the header.. lol..

Love the dress and all the ways you've put it together!
ReplyDeleteI love the outfit---wear it as much as you want!!
ReplyDeleteThe game of trying to come up with as many different combinations as possible strangely reminded me of that scene in Clueless where Cher is picking out which outfit to wear via her high-tech 90s computer. I try to resist the same too, but some outfits I love too much! I love the action shot where you're crossing from one rock to another!

Blogging has put me into this same sort of mindset. Although, there are times I love an outfit so much I can't help but wear it over and over again. But I do enjoy the challenge of pairing things up differently every time.
ReplyDeleteMy number one rule for getting dressed is 'Don't forget shoes' can't express how many times I've walked out shoeless...
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful combo btw, I love it, and that waistcoat is divine.

The scenery is way different too. Love the outfit and great combinations just have to be worn more than once.
ReplyDeleteyour shoes are perfect!
ReplyDeleteI'm so so so much lazier than you but I often repeat outfits--sometimes I get into a rut and I'll keep pairing the same three things together. I love your elvish shoes and I think the make any outfit looks adorable and sprite-like.

I think the new shoes definitely spice it up (I did immediately think, hey it's the header outfit - but I dont think that's a bad thing).
ReplyDeleteThis is timely because I am wearing an almost repeat outfit to work today but I mixed it up with a different blazer and different shoes. :)
It's a classic look! So what if you've worn it before? You look lovely (:

do you use the blog pictures to look back and keep track of how you've worn things? i'm not sure i'd remember what combinations i've worn before.
ReplyDeleteRegardless of the repeat, you look lovely! Such a perfect setting, too. xo
ReplyDeleteYou look great in those shoes! And that necklace is fab! So vintage!

ReplyDeletelove this shoes!
ReplyDeleteyou look fab..

I totally agree with your philosophy on dressing. And I just love how you write about clothes.
ReplyDeleteI've always subconsciously adhered to the no-repetition rule. Once it's done, it's done! Unless it's sweltering summer and I can only bare to clothe myself with a tank top and cutoffs and sit in front of the fan with a book all day. Then I repeat what's cool and comfy. I also love that you think of it as a game because it totally is, even a puzzle.
ReplyDeleteI love the animation!
