Petite Fashion Challenge #15: Chic Pin-spiration

This month's petite fashion challenge is hosted by the lovely Megan of Long Live Classy.

The challenge is:
Chic Pin-spiration-- Find a pic of an outfit you love on Pinterest, and re-create it the best way possible!
Be sure to post the pic of your outfit inspiration in your post as well!




My pin-spiration is this look by Elle at  Fast food and Fast Fashion !


I love this nautical inspired, casual yet classy look, this simple yet chic look!
I wonder how she always manages to be so chic and classy!
Please check out her blog, Fast Food and Fast Fashion,  for some great style tips and outfit posts!

Here is my take on the look.




I've added some polka dots and a mustard bag though I would've loved to carry that gorgeous red, blue and white J.Crew Tillary tote! !

I'm not too crazy about the fit of the pant as it has a much higher rise for my liking, but I bought it nevertheless, as it was a steal for $10 at 80% off sale.

Did you notice that she has no accessories on her and yet she manages to look so striking!
Well, I feel so naked without my accessories, and so I had to put on a couple!

Don't forget to visit Megan's blog, Long Live Classy, for a full list of participants and their chic pin-spirations!




                                                                         What I Am Wearing:
                                                      blazer- LOFT    denim- DKNY     polka dot shirt- Burlington Coat Factory
                                        bag- Nine West    watch and shades- Guess    heels- Forever 21    belt- AEO


                                  Thanking you                                                         Yours fashionably
                                                                                                                        Juneli

    Like The Little Dust Priness said, great "pin-spiration!" I especially like your bag - really brightens up the ensemble!

    I think you did a great job channeling Elle's look into your own! The mustard bag looks great and yes I've done the same..far too many it was 75% off, it's slightly big but I'll have this done to it...or taken in... I learned my lesson not to do with it shoes... Just a 1/2 size too big and no matter what I put into the shoe...the fit is never quite right and the blisters are never worth the 75% off ahhhh!

      I know, Bessie, the other day I was tempted to buy a pair of heels even though they were half a size big and then I resisted myself!Not a good idea at all! Thank you very much for liking it!

    Love your interpretation of the look, Juneli! The stripes and polka dot pattern mixing adds interest to the outfit. The mustard bag adds just the right pop of color. How do I participate in the next challenge?? I've asked a bunch of bloggers and no one ever seems to have an answer.

    Your recreation is so much better than the original! :)

    I think the yellow bag adds more interest than the tri-colored Tillary. And your blue/white dot blouse is tdf.

    Great job on this challenge! :)
