A Little Slice of Watamelon Fruits Week Challenge

The Fruits Week Challenge for today is Watermelon.  Now, I obviously could not get away with wearing this to work, but it would totally be fun to go out in.  It is a good mix of casual and funky fun.  I almost didn't buy this tube top.  It is pretty old and there was a snag and tiny hole in it.  But ultimately, I decided that I could not leave the shop without it.  I mean, come on, how many times do you run into sequined perfection?  By now you should know that my love for glittery pretty pieces runs deep (as also seen here and here) and this tube top was no exception.

I am loving how this challenge is helping me to look to such colorful inspirations!

  1. Perfectly melony! I love the sequined top. I actually just thrifted a sequined bolero. I couldn't leave it behind though it might only get a little wear. Great use of a tie!

  8. Adore sequin, it adds so much fun to an outfit. I adore mixing mine with relaxed and casual pieces, ala J.Crew style. You've done a great job styling yours here!! Have a wonderful week. xx veronika

  16. Shasie, you can go to http://www.meganmaedaily.com/2011/05/fashion-challenge-fruits-week.html?showComment=1306901003805#c5509525030188009610 to find more information. It is a challenge set up by Megan Mae (Megan Mae Daily) and Keely (Casual Chic Kiki) where they picked a fruit everyday for inspiration. I have dropped the fruit week ball, but you can do one or all six and it ends on Saturday, so you still have time to participate if you like.

    Thanks for the compliment on the top. I really appreciate that!
