Style To Inspire Link Up And A Hot Mess: Watercolor Print Pencil Skirt, Blue T-shirt And Converse

     First off, today I am co-hosting the Style To Inspire Link Up with the beautiful Rhea at rheaetcetera.com. She is yet another fabulous friend I’ve discovered through blogging. Her style is impeccable and she’s a dog lover…so bonus points there! So, stop by and check out her blog. You’ll be glad you did. And make sure to scroll down and join the link up. We’d love to have you!
     Next, I have to apologize for the less than stellar quality photos this last week. Normally during the school year I try to get my shots after school when the lighting is good. But the middle school does not have air conditioning and the elementary did. What does that have to do with my photos? Well, it’s been in the upper 80’s temperature wise with crazy high humidity, so by the end of the work day I am the poster child for the term “hot mess”. Seriously, if you could look it up in the dictionary my picture would be next to the definition. Therefore, I’ve been taking my blog photos in the morning when the lighting isn’t optimal so they’ve been a bit “noisy”. Hopefully, this week is the official start of declining temperatures and humidity so I no longer look like the witch after Dorothy throws a bucket of water on her in The Wizard of Oz at the end of the day.
     This outfit is very blue-based for a reason. We have dress down day on Fridays in our school district, which means jeans are allowed. But at the middle school I’m required to wear either a school spirit shirt or something royal blue (which in my mind is Blue Devil blue). Talk about crampin’ a girl’s style! This week was way too sweltering for jeans so I went with my watercolor blue skirt, a tee and my Converse sneaks. I’m always a fan of the not quite right pairing, so the Converse and pencil skirt were perfect together. I wasn’t exactly cool, but it sure beat a pair of jeans.

Haha, had to laugh at the “hot mess” comment. You always look casual, cute, edgy and put-together Debbie. Like today I love this easy look. Love pairing Blue with White, especially for Summer. IRL today those are the 2 colors I am wearing also. I am in love with the skirt.

P.S. Loved seeing you co-host too. I linked up my favorite floral skirt of the moment. I think you’d like it. 😉

Happy Monday Fabulous Debbie!!

Oh, fun! Two of my fave ladies hosting the same linkup! Does this mean if I link up with one of you, it automatically goes to the other? I’ve planned to join Rhea’s on Thursday or Friday and I want to make sure I don’t overlook you too.

Also, I didn’t notice a significant drop of quality in your photos but I guess that’s just testimony to the awesomeness of your outfits, eh? This one, in particular, is a fave but that’s because it’s TARDIS blue. Woot! The color goes so well with your hair! 😀

Love both of you ladies! I could not tell the quality of the photos were less than your normal ones – you look great in them. That skirt is so fun and love it with the converse.

BTW, I am hosting my first link up this Thursday and hope you will join me.

The pairing is perfect! You make it quite right instead of not quite right! I’ve always loved your curley hair, but I like it smooth, too!
A linkup! Someday I’ll get my act together … and I’m on our miniscule backup computer that is so slow it’s taking days to get around to Vis Monday! Hope you have a lovely linky!
