Life as Pink Einstein

Almost three weeks ago my house caught on fire. Thankfully the only major damage was to the kitchen and our house is still livable. My family thought the only things we would have to do were repaint and buy new kitchen appliances but boy were we wrong! A cleaning company had to come in for ten days and deep clean every item in our house, we had to throw away all of our food, and all of our clothes were taken to a special cleaning company for a few weeks. As I'm writing this I have received about a third of my clothes back from the cleaning company but before I got these back I had about 15 items total to wear for two and a half weeks. If you know me you know that I was dying because I hardly ever wear the same outfit twice in a month! I thought it would be interesting to document a few of the outfits I created out of about six tops, four pairs of shoes, and four pairs of pants I had to wear.

As you can probably guess I love Lilly Pulitzer. The bright fun prints are my favorite but they aren't quite suitable for winter. I would wear my Lilly shift dress everyday if I could but when it's 40 degrees outside a shift dress isn't weather appropriate. I came up with two ways to wear your Lilly during winter without freezing or looking out of place in your bright clothes.

Recently, I have been trying to cut back on my shopping (you can probably guess how that's going) and I have been trying to style more pieces that I already own instead of adding more to the collection. Sweaters are my favorite thing to wear during the colder months but after a while wearing plain jeans and a sweater starts to get a little old. I purchased this cute pink sweater from H&M a couple of years ago and I love how versatile it is. I came up with a few different ways to style this sweater in case you too are in need of some sweater weather outfit inspiration.
