like dorothy's dress

Today's  inspiration monday!

That's when the ladies Nora and Megan of
 Two Birds Boutique
chose an outfit to inspire an outfit.


Here's my version of the look.
To see how others were inspired,

go to:

inspiration monday: is it bad?



Today's inspiration is:
Rebecca Minkoff

My white t-shirt is from Target (over 5 years old).

I didn't have printed pants like the inspiration.
I thought my skirt pattern had a similar print.

My skirt was thrifted.

My ankle boots were thrifted.

The last time I saw the ocean was in August of 2012,
 while in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

I wonder when I'll see the beach again,
and where that will be?

    I love the pattern on your skirt. I'm really loving blue at the moment, I've never really been into blue until now!

  3. I can't tell if that kiddie ride is either a dolphin or a whale. I guess they can't really complain. I went on tons as a kid with rust all over it, and some boat rides with water that looked like toxic waste.

  4. I really love you did the lettering for the word Ocean. Also I love that you have enough clothes to do the inspiration Monday posts and I think this one is pretty bang on! I'm impressed. Hugs!

  5. you really nailed the elements of Rebecca's outfit. even though you're wearing a skirt it's still almost exactly the same.

    your nieces and nephews are super cute :)

  8. gosh how amazing those blue inspirations are! light blue is such a gorgeous shade. and Teddi, once again you've done a great job with this inspirational look because your skirt indeed looks exactly like those pants from the original photo.
    oh and I hope you'll see the ocean already soon :)

  10. As usual, I loved your interpretation! Your boots are amazing! And the fashion pictures you selected are great - one of them really inspired me to find something similar! Your nieces and nephews always soooo sweet! And your art journal also always so inspiring. Where and when will I see the sea again... it made me think... you know I have a beach house and I seldom go there - and I love the sea... it's a shame. I want to go there now! Thanks for those words... made me think!

  13. Oh, I love using Dorothy as fashion inspiration! That Alexis Mabille collection is adorable. I love your printed skirt; it's so pretty paired with just a simple white tee!

    May the Force be with you.
