YIKES! Stripes and Tights a Fashion Fail!
YIKES ~ Stripes and Tights a Fashion Fail!
Hello friends, and happy Hump Day Wednesday. Have you ever gotten dressed thinking that you looked okay only to realize later that you made a major fashion mistake? Well that is how I feel about this outfit which is aptly entitled YIKES, STRIPES AND TIGHTS a Fashion Fail!
I have to admit that it was still dark when I got dressed and I was in a hurry, running late as usual, perhaps the jet lag from the trip to LA or just because it was Monday, I messed up. Actually, I am blaming my husband, because when I asked him if the shoes were okay, he said, “well it matches the bag”, that should have been my hint and a half to go change.
Alright, alright, I know that I messed up…tights are too dark…there are too many colors…patterns, just a mess but hey, I am entitled to a fashion faux pas, so please be kind with your comments.
This thrifted multi-patterned dress is cute, but with the black striped tights…well it’s a bit too much, I should have gone with beige or suntan hose or perhaps the shoes were too much…two tone and stripes – nope…not a good look, should have worn my OTK suede boots.
I even tried to find something Boho Chic to compare it to and even that was hard…so now this outfit will live in infamy and my great-great grands may one day find it and say, “what the heck was that ole lady wearing!”
New Year ~ New You
Because of the print of the dress a simple solid black shoe/boots and tights would’ve been perfect!
Yes, so true…gotta love a fashion fail every once in a while!
I think you look very cute! The colors in the dress are GREAT and the tights, while dark, do not look bad at all. This outfit is full of personality…and you’re warm. Can’t beat that! 😉

Thank you sis, I knew I could count on your support. Enjoy this snowy day – be safe!
Love this, You mixed the patterns so well. Both on the dress and with your tights. The color-block heels are a great edition as well. Look great as always
STOP! You look lovely. Only you can see the pattern in the tights and a man on a galloping horse sees nothing. . . LOL!!
Neti, you truly are a sweet person! Thanks Blog Sistah!
