Style No. 4

 

It's week four of my August fashion challenge to create styles using only three colors: Navy, Fuchsia, and Ivory/White, and yes, the beehive hair is back!  Only one more week left after this and I have enjoyed this little challenge so much I may make it more of a regular thing here on the blog. 

I'm still working on getting the beehive just right, but it's becoming a favorite easy style.  Plus it's been a nice change and a little challenge all on its own.  I know we tend to hide from challenges, but it's good for us to mix things up, try something new, and test/improve our skills.

Today's outfit relies pretty heavily on the Navy and White and less on the Fuchsia, but it still fits the bill. Next week on the other hand is flirting with the rules a little.   It's not outright cheating, but I it pushes it a little because I just couldn't resist the outfit.

So, for today's outfit, I'm wearing one of Unique Vintage's Hamilton dresses. This one is in Navy/White stripes with pink floral accents and of course I added the fuchsia heels to go along with it—not just to fit the challenge, but because I think they bring out the pink in the flowers.

So, since we are nearly at an end to this challenge, it's time to sound off. If you want to see more posts like this, be sure to comment below and list three colors for my next challenge.
